Summary sheet
Ministry of Public Works, Transport and Telecommunications
The project involves the construction of a 19.5 km bypass expressway between the Northern entrance of Fier and Levan in the South on the major North – South axis in Albania.
This project will provide the missing link on the North-South (Durres-Vlore) corridor and will reduce traffic congestion in Fier by bypassing in the city.
The Bank’s services will take particular care to ensure that proper attention is given to all environmental concerns and appropriate mitigation measures are implemented, in line with the Bank’s relevant guidelines, including issues relating to nature conservation areas.
Procurement procedures will be in line with the EIB guidelines and EBRD requirements, that is to say international competitive tendering with pre-qualification. The Bank will monitor the continued procurement process closely.
