Prime Minister Edi Rama stated that he apologizes to the users of the north-south road axis, suggesting that the longest wait has passed. In fact, the ineffective queues of the Vorë-Fushë Krujë or Fushë Krujë-Thumë week segments are only the visible side of a general degradation of the road system, which does not come from a lack of money but from a lack of governance.
The Durrës - Plepa road has become a big nuisance for users, not especially because of the load, but mainly because of the potholes in the asphalt, which force many drivers to drive very slowly in order not to damage the car, which necessarily leads back to the queue. at the only traffic light in the area. The situation is not new. Users of this segment have noticed the degradation for at least a year. And this is not even the only road segment that has gone to hell. The secondary road of the Tirana-Durres highway, the right side, a road segment used by a significant number of businesses in the area, is taking on the status of a former road, while the concrete joints allowed to rise as they please, have made an access road directly to the Tirana-Durrës highway, pouring concrete on the asphalt and making the highway itself,
The main reasons why national roads are damaged so quickly in Albania seem to be related to their use by overloaded trucks. These trucks, which mainly serve to transport chrome from Bulqiza and transport concrete for the construction industry, seem to belong to those who are widely known as oligarchs, whether Rama likes it or not. And the first solution to the problem is to prevent loaded trucks from damaging the road, on which cars then drive more slowly, burning more fuel, emitting more pollution and causing more traffic. It is understood that the traffic police will have to face the interests of the oligarch who is allowed to erect a concrete point on the highway and to break personal access to a highway that is supposed to connect Tirana to Durrës and not the concrete point to the construction site. But you have to be naive to the point of stupidity to expect something like this to happen.
And since the ban on overloaded trucks is not expected to happen, another short-term solution must take shape. A tender should fill the potholes in the road while the oligarch should be asked to wash the concrete mixers before taking them out on the highway, so that the concrete does not flow onto the asphalt creating bumps. And the question is that, since the North-South corridor that should connect the Milot-Thumane highway with the Kavajë-Rrogozhinë highway through a completely new road from Kashari to Peze-Helmës to Lekaj, Kavajë requires time, projects and funding I don't know what else, the question is what prevents the prime minister from filling any potholes on the Durres ring road or the Tirana-Durres highway.
If you take a look at the state balance sheet for the first six months of this year, you will notice that there is a surplus of about 46 billion lek at a time when they should have had a deficit of 6.3 billion lek. In a word, half a billion euros, enough to build most of the Kashar-Lekaj axis (without concession or public-private partnership), sleep in the government's account in the Bank of Albania.
So, while the travelers of the Shkodër - Tirana axis are patient, not because they are listening to the prime minister's advice to be patient, but because they have no other choice, we ask the prime minister to use our money to throw a handful of asphalt on those roads that need repairs./ BIRN
