3. Other Information
Construction works on this railway line commenced in 1996 and were halted in 2004. The greater part of the railway embankments, cuts and the majority of the structures (bridges, underpasses, culverts, retaining walls etc.), have been partly constructed. Many railway and road bridges either have remained unfinished or their construction has not even commenced, the same applies to tunnels. Although the new railway alignment traverses the existing road network at several locations, all respective under-/overpasses are yet to be constructed. The relocation of most of the existing infrastructure (long distant power lines, waters supply, sewerages, pipelines etc.) has already been carried out. The project includes all the works required to complete the unfinished project and realize a modern railway line, which shall meet the European standards.
The tendering process for works under this project is on-going and is done outside the ECEPP system.
