Report from fact-finding mission on Corridor Vc motorway, Bosnia and Herzegovina, 23 - 25 February 2010

On 23-25 February 2010 Bankwatchs Balkan and EBRD Co-ordinators together with colleagues from the Banja Luka-based Center for Environment and Sarajevo-based Ekotim undertook a third visit regarding the Corridor Vc motorway in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

The main aims of the visit were to obtain updated information on the proposed changes to the route at Blagaj and Pocitelj, which were proposed in summer 2009 but which had stalled due to political issues, and to understand what progress has been made in establishing the Prenj National Park and how this may impact on the plans to build the motorway in the area.
