Greece’s Aktor Wins Tender To Build Tunnel on Albanian Motorway
TIRANA (Albania), March 18 (SeeNews) – Greece’s Aktor has won a tender for the construction of a tunnel on a motorway that will link Albania’s capital Tirana with the central town of Elbasan, Tirana-based daily Panorama reported on Friday.
Aktor’s $83 million (59 million euro) offer ranked higher than the ones filed by Greece’s AEG-AK, Croatia’s Konstruktor, Italy’s CMC Ravena and Slovakia’s Tubau, Panorama (www.panorama.com.al) reported.
Two bidders disqualified earlier, Bechtel-Enka and Mochlos, filed no complaints regarding their disqualification within the legal deadline, the daily reported.
Albania’s road authority is expected to officially announce the tender's winner on March 21.
The Albanian government has allocated some 15 billion leks ($151 million/107 million euro) for the tunnel, which should be completed within 18 months from the signing of the deal.
The motorway stretch, part of European Union-defined transport Corridor VIII, will cut the driving time between the two towns to 20 minutes from one hour. The distance between Elbasan and Tirana is around 30 kilometres.
Corridor VIII links the Adriatic and Ionian coasts with the Black Sea coast.
