Kosovo Motorway – Route 6 “Arbën Xhaferi”

After the completion of Route 7, the Government of Kosovo signed another contract with joint venture Bechtel-Enka Partnership for construction of Kosovo Motorway project – Route 6. The project started by July 2014 and was completed on May 29, 2019. Route 6 stretches from capital city of Kosovo, Prishtina to its border with North Macedonia. The four-lane motorway has a total length of 65 kilometers with the design speed of 120 km/h. The project comprised the construction of 13 bridges – with a total length of 7.9km; construction of 19 overpasses and 18 underpasses; 19 million m³ of excavation; and 170km of guardrail.
