The operating permit for Peljesac Bridge will be issued upon completion of the access roads, considering the access roads and the bridge itself represent a functional unit according to the location permit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The technical inspection reviewed all the required construction documentation, evidence for the quality of the materials used, along with the presentation of proof of usability and a template of the functional tests required to use the bridge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Ministry of the Sea, Transport and Infrastructure decided to embark on the journey of building the bridge in the summer of 2018, and intends to reach the destination in June this year, with the completion of the access roads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
