According to Serbian Economist, representatives of the Serbian and Romanian governments have recently officially confirmed their intention to develop a major transport project — to build a modern motorway that will provide a direct road link between the capitals of the two countries.
The project combines two national infrastructure plans:
— the Romanian A9 motorway (Timișoara–Moravița), which will connect Timișoara with the Serbian border, and
— the Serbian Belgrade–Vatin motorway with access to the Romanian border.
According to an intergovernmental agreement signed by the transport ministers of Serbia and Romania, both countries are working to agree on the technical details so that the roads connect at the border and create a continuous high-speed route from Belgrade to Timișoara.
In Romania, the section of the motorway between Timișoara and the Moravița border crossing is already in the preparation and design stage, and individual sections of the construction have been handed over to contractors.
This route is of strategic importance to both countries:
• It will strengthen transport links between the countries and improve freight and passenger transport logistics.
• The connection to the European motorway network will help integrate Serbian and Romanian infrastructure into European transport corridors.
The project is expected to be financed by both European funds and national budgets, and its implementation will be a step towards closer economic and transport integration in the region.
