Infrastructure ministry shows triggers leading to damage to Mitrovica-Pristina road

Part of the N2 Highway suffered major cracks at the end of December 2020. Then a section collapsed.

The institution responsible under whose authority this route is, the Ministry of Infrastructure has held a builder responsible, who had started digging for building an object. The ministry has not indicated whether measures have been taken against the company, which had begun work illegally.

“As far as keying the “Ibrahim Rugova” in the village of Mazzit on the Pristina-Mitrovica road (N2), where, as a result of opening the environment ministry's unrecognised construction pit, Spatial Planning and Infrastructural Planning (MMPHI), road slides have occurred, and the collapse of the district layer” is said in response to the Ministry of Infrastructure for news.

For several months, the ministry has appointed a professional commission to address this slide. They have told of their actions.

“MMPHI has immediately taken appropriate action from surveying the field, doing indirect field profiles, and then studying the geomechanics of this slide, where probes were made in depth up to 20 meters, under the surrounding layer. And in the lower part of the Carpata, it has been impossible to establish mechanization for drilling because of the permanent movement of charpates and weather conditions that have been distasteful to the problem. The ministry has appointed the vocation commission to deal with the sancing of this”, made MI-Tell.net known.

Pos, the illegal opening of the pit, the ministry has held the persons responsible for the road project, since they say it as such has not met technical conditions.

This road at the time was built without the expropriation of the properties involved in this construction and a project has been worked on, which has not met technical conditions to proceed further, as there has been a breach of the project and the situation in the field. Now we've done the record of this expropriation industry and we're in the final phase of its completion. The problem itself in this project represents Serbia's lack of cadastral documentation. Most of the problem is being presented, the lack of graphic plans we have in the Kralica cadastral area and the geodese team are making efforts to secure these plans so that this” project can be completed, the ministry said further.

This government dictatorship has been unable to give a date when regular circulation can begin even on that part of the road.

After road damage, vehicles coming from Auto-Usad A7 to continue towards Pristina should continue towards the village of Mazzi, more precisely in the Pristina-Mitrovica road segment and be used around the rotation in the village of Magzit (about the rotation located near the Sultan Murat's tribes) and then continue towards Pristina
