In October, the project was honored with the prestigious IRF Environmental Stewardship Award for delivering infrastructure that seamlessly integrates flood protection measures with pioneering environmental initiatives, all while prioritizing biodiversity preservation. These conservation efforts and environmental innovations include 37 km of river diversion, 28 kilometers of flood protection dykes, 236 kilometers of drainage systems, 40 culverts and safety measures such as 492 kilometers of guardrails and 232 kilometers of wildlife fencing.
The Morava Corridor Motorway is a 112-km dual carriageway designed for speeds of up to 130 km/h. Running along the West Morava River valley, it connects central Serbia strategically with Pan-European Corridors 10 and 11, facilitating access to Bosnia, Montenegro, and North Macedonia. The motorway encompasses 37 kilometers of river diversion, 236 kilometers of drainage systems, and 40 culverts. It also features 12 interchanges, 79 bridges, 27 overpasses, and 11 underpasses.
