The EUR 7,3 million investment is part of the Government project for infrastructure modernization in the country.

He announced that motorway section Veles-Skopje would be reconstructed in 2013, whereas the project on construction of highway Demir Kapija-Smokvica is ongoing.
"We will continue to build and allocate significant Budget funds for such capital projects", stressed PM Gruevski.
Minister of Transport and Communications Mile Janakieski stressed a project for overhaul of 13 bridges along Corridor 10 should be launched in 2013.
"European funds have been secured for rehabilitation of road Corridor 10 sections. Priority has been given to section Veles-Katlanovo, with reconstruction set to begin in the first half of 2013", added Janakieski.
Construction company "Granit" worked on section Katlanovo-Veles in the past 16 months.
