Tivat's Tourist Season Threatened by Construction Delays

Tivat Braces for Challenging Tourist Season Amidst Boulevard Construction Delays Tivat, Montenegro is facing a potential crisis as the tourist season approaches. The slow pace of construction on a key boulevard is causing significant traffic problems, raising concerns about the upcoming influx of visitors. The issue is particularly acute due to the unfinished connection to Tivat Airport, creating major bottlenecks. "Unfortunately, we haven't been able to finalize the tender for the crucial section of the boulevard, including the airport connection," laments Zeljko Komnenovic, the mayor of Tivat. He highlights the delays in completing the project, which will likely lead to substantial traffic congestion during the peak tourist season. The video footage shows heavy traffic and incomplete sections of the road, adding visual evidence to the mayor's concerns. The lack of adequate pedestrian walkways further exacerbates the situation. While some sections of the boulevard are paved, the crucial link to the airport remains unfinished, potentially hindering tourist access and negatively impacting the local economy. The local government is working to expedite the project, but the delays highlight the challenges of large-scale infrastructure projects. The hope is that solutions will be found to mitigate the traffic issues and ensure a successful tourist season.
