Concerns Mount Regarding Condition of Ibrahim Rugova Highway

Deputies are urging the Infrastructure Minister to address persistent hazardous conditions on a critical section of the Ibrahim Rugova highway, connecting Prizren and Suhareka. The roadway has experienced ongoing issues with reduced traffic flow and limited capacity to a single lane. Recent incidents within this area of the highway have fueled calls for immediate intervention.

Deputies attribute the ongoing problems to a lack of consistent investment in road maintenance and infrastructure improvements. Specifically, concerns center on the frequent occurrence of slippery surfaces, which significantly impede safe travel and contribute to the hazardous conditions. The instability of the road surface has repeatedly impacted traffic flow and raised safety concerns for drivers.

Officials have been contacted for comment on the situation and potential solutions. The deputies’ demands highlight the need for prioritized investment to address the infrastructural challenges and ensure the continued safety and functionality of the Ibrahim Rugova highway. Further investigation into the root causes of the issues is expected.
