of the tyra canyon and move in montenegro, reaching down some 1300 meters. the unesco world heritage site is the deepest scorch in europe. now it's threatened by the construction of monique rose fest highway. you have to have certainly at least the visually. i mean, just that they want to have a high rate on the i mean this is a cost of the $1000000000.00 highway is being built by one of the china is not just stay turn construction companies. i look, send them the data, is the projects environmental and safety consultants and others to this is a construction site like the mix. we actually all screwed up. i call it like a gold rush. everybody so keen to to drive on the highway medium is that of which has a passion for fly fishing. you'd hope to track like minded tours to the tower with

the but the construction of the highway, his dash that dreams for the time being. yeah. the other one, i'll probably never again experience this particular spot of the titled river, like i used to have that i bought a lot of what the meaning is that of each spent is committed to the upkeep of the tower rizza. he's also the president of a fishing club in crushing for me that the construction of monique rose 1st highway means the destruction of his beloved driven forces before mountain rivers. like these have taken millions of years to form settlement deposits which close the account,

larry square. so that the water can stay on the surface of the room for the 3 year yet. so now that's all been reversed in water is seeping into the ground. plus the river bed has been new. is they quoted for is the fish are gone and life has disappeared from the river. so we basically have a desert care via to, i'd say the water level is only a 3rd or half of what it used to me. and i read triple gotta unspoiled nature of montenegro is its greatest treasure. and well, this is exactly why towards from the west come here for the service is a sizable portion of monique rose longest. rizza enjoys unesco protection. for a long time, the population had no idea that highway superstructures, bridge p is, would be built directly on the river bed. right. so yeah, that will probably take 3 or 4 years for any fish to show up. everything is all.

how do i few extremely sound about what's happened to this beautiful rivers. i should have been saved by any means necessary, but have almost 2 of them. that's what the envelopes got. probably like kaiser. the supported according to european regulations, mistress of highway here should have been as short as possible. the more partridge was dead, it runs a full 2 kilometers along the river bank to the highway is being built by the china road in bridge corporation or c, b. c. a chinese stay tuned enterprise, but local companies are also involved in what is the largest infrastructure project in mountain eclipse history. the highway will stretch a total of 170 kilometers, connecting the port city of bo. we've probably got a in the north. and we'll eventually run from the a drastic see to the use via sub yeah. 42 kilometers between the capital put

gaudy time and cor lashing are practically finished. the original estimated cost of this section alone is 1000000000 bureaus. 800000000 of which is financed by loan from china as x and back. in the meantime, the cost of this section has turned out to be over a $100000000.00 euros higher than originally planned. and exxon domestic is a montenegrin consultant who has been involved as the direct just the health safety and environment. since construction of the project began, he was hired by the china road to bridge corporations 7 and a half years ago. construction began in 2017 for a project, incorporating 16 tunnels and 21 bridges one of the highest bridges in europe. the highest point from the river itself is 200 meters to the level. it was very challenging for 5,

and the design is really difficult to deal with the huge difference and elevation. we have 11000 elevation. explain this project. most wonderful thing that happened to 560 or 100 years from now. if it comes comes from the capital and then on the coast for me, it was a challenge and a privilege to be a part of this kind of national national life project. montenegrin officials hope that the highway will provide a boost for the under develop northern parts of the country and attract more towards the subsection is scheduled to open in a month. 3 is later than planned up

to $3000.00 chinese workers are include on the construction site during peak activity. you know, they're not allowed to to the media part of the company's communication strategy. the, how about how are you? i don't think okay, good. these pets, we have soft electrical mechanical installation. so the singles, i need some things for sending policies to 4 months and it shows up in the, in the software. this is a pretty allow the you have to be elements the any, any, any risk from, from let me pull him down from the thing and it was really, really strong. some that had to make sure that don't have any, such as the construction company. his face repeated criticism, especially in connection with environmental violations, be honest. this was but i'm not sure that i can. i can speak like this by my,

my personal opinions. because politically driven and driven by some environmental and zeros. that negatively oriented towards these projects. because they, they wanted us to avoid the river tough, but it's not us will design the routes of the highway we did is according to the conceptual design made by the government. this is the section to attracting most criticism from the phones to the highway web bridge p is run direct beyond the resistance, several kilometers. well, this particular area we made, let me do some plan which was adopted and approved by the environment agency protection agency. and you can see at the top of what the stop sign and put the

rossville funds of ross and found some, some, some nice fees and the single green and 9 the river received its its previous me so river course and the river bed. you have to have certainly at least the visual impact. i mean you choose, but they want to have the highway on the. so, i mean, this is the cost of civilization. but still, again, i wouldn't mind even to the go down and drink from from the civil. ready mean is that of it's fishing club protected and took care of the fish population of atara near cor, lashing until the construction began at the time he was one of the 1st people to draw attention to the impending damage. the project would cause and the 1st group to listen to him was an engineer called man's center for job uniform. before we begin to question why a highway was even allowed to be built,

that we were trying to find out if the state was managing construction properly and whether environmental instinct is with doing the job that others work well. so i'm not sure i love that will let them as a government declared vital information to be subject to state secrecy was by no means unless we still don't know where the money went. now instead of $800000000.00 euros, the highway costs over a $1000000000.00 or so system and it will not as cost of itself, they're coming out of the man's is financed by the you and deals primarily with corruption, an organized crime. the n g o has also found evidence of nepotism and waste in public funds during the freeway project and is pursuing cases of incompetence. so you think the revitalization measures are insufficient? almost only cosmetic, at best. the most damage was caused by excavating right in the river itself. they

cleaned the machines and the tada. in the cement from those machines, damage the river, especially young fish. the cement gets caught in their gills and causes them to suffocate. nicola sheen, the tunnel became as brown as earth and it was devastating for all river life. we tried to fight and organized protests, of that. the government refused to hear us the only sort of listening when months also began criticising for months. montenegro is currently seeking you membership, but the country's debt has increased significantly because of the highways construction project as part of china. so growth initiative which has been investing around the world, including in the balkans months and he goes current parliamentary speaker was instrumental in developing plans for the highway and negotiating the project for the chinese at the time even by of which was minister of transport. nice for me

but i thing that we never said no to the you was very nice but they would just no serious offers. cmu. and i understand your not the thing is that the simplest concepts of why we chose the chinese company is that it had the best and cheapest delta e. well, definitely scripts, me slow customer, the critics attack of saying it was a highway from nowhere to nowhere. what i'm get on those me so all equally so could you call it? in fact, what could we started with the most difficult section of the type of route and use so that we could have a nice, you know, hands with you and implement the rest of the highway with the private and was full public financing, quail. most of them on the book with some of the viewing so that even if we can pretty luckily, i don't know. that's where the rest of the funding will comes from. remains unclear . needed is none of which house is located in core lashing not fall from the tara, where he and his friends remain. i would fly fishes. the media has trying to

make the winter result is crushing, appealing to fishing, interests in summer. but the damage to the tower river has ruined his plans, are small and then usually add a drop of nail polish to ferment all of of the old gomez. and sonia my dream was to organize a world championship for fly. fishing and montenegro scope removes the benefits for local residents would be a normal is i minutes. we are over 30 below to lose a good tourist. little shot. you also but mostly belong to the upper middle and upper class abuse. and they have disposable income. they like to spend, or you might with or you don't know. so the port that or should the, and extend the med tech to only sit on the highway construction site every day

change. so everything's perfect ahead of the opening. as i said, everything would be here. you have also police station, firefighters service area. and the come on the face. the command center is the brain of the highway. the around $560.00 cameras has been installed along the $42.00 columbia to stretch. all of them are connected to small software that will ensure maximum safety for future road uses. for this particular car would slow down, then they will focus on that old car would stop to go reverse a vote just to fast. then if a smoke up with a p a. and you have special, especially design software to recognize the small basic that the most sophisticated software, which is still on the,

the preparation also on the ground china road and bridge corporations, software developers who's come to montenegro from single pool and blaze, you know, so the subset of everything. yeah, yeah, that's the only system on the final the cnbc is delivering a fantastic product to citizens and i'm sure that as we'll say many lives in the future. thank you very much too much. the highway is still a work in progress, but some drive is already enjoy using the completed sections as a foster route to put gloria crashing, which is a big safety issue. fat extend them of duck. they just drove into it all. yes. and they put their foot down, they passed to me at a $120.00 last. the option is are they getting they don't know? or they bribery, someone. i really have no idea it sites. it's really difficult to,

to fight this every, every single day. 24 hours. okay, thanks for now. all that's in wait for them. then when i start the step products, are they the ones who came in and smoke? that's okay. let me know if i'm yeah. yeah. catching the this illegal task process of um success security at the end. and if i see something suspicious, i call them to, to block and call police in case a few minutes later, alexander has located the road. driver's location is from serbia to i in too much of a hurry to get to be a dramatic coast the afternoon. you know, this is a construction site. yes. you have to go back out where you drove in. otherwise

you'll be find, find the police police. this is a construction site, it's close to the traffic. but gps, let us here drive to the next day. i call it like a gold rush. everybody so keen to to drive on the highway because the kind of drugs drive for get it so to collection is extremely narrow and dangerous. the old road was built in the 19 seventies and is currently the only connection between the capital and the northern part of the country. and we have just just 2 lanes of the road. and then you have a red box, and then you have a big like a canyon, a big rock pulling down. and it's, it's very narrow, it's very curvy. then we have lots of trucks, lots of buses, and they have to drive slowly. and then they drive slowly,

then you pile up. hundreds of cars behind people drive fast, want to overtake and if you want to avoid a car, then it just slid over to the rails. there's been many so many victims. tough with accidents along this road a year ago. economy cars, alexander has also had to stay till accidents here. one of the strongest arguments cited by highway advocates is that the project will help to avoid further such tragedies. how's it going to damage from demands and g. o has documented evidence of how regulations and laws have been bent and broken during the highways construction. the government has granted extraordinary concessions to chinese investors in all subcontractors involved. seattle, b. c. cut that is up when cnbc realized it was expensive to dispose of construction

ways that they came up with a projects to regulate the river by dumping it all along the banks. claiming that it would prevent flooding of my pretty solid cycle. but is neela has already said they basically just lift piles of garbage from the tunnel drilling is that it completely changing the character of the tower river which has become the dumping ground. so rubble and debris from the tunnel is football on your lot cordial. so what is it that and that's certainly one of the myriad accusations gravel has also been taken from the tara, which is strictly prohibited in a sense that lead the cnbc to be charged and find one of those non what? yes for the so. so we know that all the fines imposed on c b c and the sub contractors were very smooth and not nearly enough to cover the damage close to the re the. there was so many problems with this project and that it see it was something needs to be met. i guess the most glaring example that the montenegrin public has learned about joe is that the highways may in connection to go. it's the

smoke about the flu. we simply for going to have for residence or long or rather forget, it says she was not even part of the original agreement. it was added later, a great deal, oregon. all right. uh, not somebody to go out on it. so of course we need a highway on your house so, but it needs to be done in a way that suits the public interest of or that doesn't just line the pockets of privilege companies and individual states in the i know not trans up the company for the civil do, we have been a glitch of benefits. it has a sudden, down pull changes the sounds, plans he's driving to visit someone who's properties right on the highway of the most of the people like patty shaw bush go each are an important source of information. so is the patient, is it painted into court cases because the construction material used in the so called risk management and stuff and he's gone and which is right next to one of the towers to be 3 or 2, something like that was just dumped on my field,

not to mention the big stone, you always have the 20th of this material that was dug out of that much extra votes . how long is that? what am i to shovel 3 is for 5, i knew the over there is the tunnels x at the time. are you going to is that need to know what that was taken out of that tunnel and ended up here in the gardens you today? yeah, you said, you know, be able to watch. we tried to get them to take it away. that's cool, but it's dave here unfortunately. so i couldn't do so. is it any problem you you told me a lot. of course, this is a problem for me to call you bet on. i used to be able to access the river directly fit them. now they've built this protective lot here. scott says all of it. and it looks ugly. when you go there go. yes, that is what you do. like my brother. oh, i used to be able to look directly at the river from my house. i've been remote now . i have to walk around or climb up there. no, i bit felicia,

he's abandoned. he's gone into full years because of the construction site. mila has a visit to today. natasha cove activate. she's an environmental ex, but who works for the n g o bank watch which scrutinizes investments by international financial institutions in terms of environmental and social criteria . the loan agreement montenegro has entered into it's china is controversial and the big talking points of the countries relations can this yep. national, i'm not blaming the chinese seem is i'm blaming a government is not something that does what it next. the, i'm a whichever of can i ask who i'm in the state that will charge montenegro be unable to repay the loan, installment the contracts, and allows the chinese investors to claim onto the green state property as compensation, equity. and excuse me, my, most them you for the most unlikely. the and that could affect strategically important assets. feed truck up up with a symbol. for example. appleton barley,

illinois. the next you can do defendant before the railroad claim on which i just didn't say stuck with that level. so this is a danger that has already become reality in other countries will try the course of which costs clearly or through games. i mean, i'm of that stuff that obviously trade routes are of great interest to china. it is, it's one trillion dollar new silk road project aims to open up the countries access to markets in asia, africa, and by the balkans to europe. so to ever take you through this stuff in this level that will come out to him on with the we have a weak democracy savings and dana country. it's investors with pretty aggressive kind of take the to the ones with influenza as them yet. but kind of crew to even the bulk and countries like montenegro as the buyer to new membership own. yeah. that becoming increasingly oriented to truly nice investments. skinner's k with state government, i feel more comfortable working with the chinese government and chinese investments . probably because this daunted,

so not the same. and the more convenient if you had a watson of, of course, the one is found that the me a nice for me will right now it's on 3 a when or even to build the 2 missing highway sections to the coast and to sub. yeah. so this is the end of the road, so you can see and the 42 kilometer long highway a this is the, the hill calls especially big this. it will be the next challenge. hopefully we'll see how to be see the next phase from under david. so i bet on this is to serve in boulder and i, and i highly appreciate the chinese investors and, and time is extreme back. and i think in the balkans the easiest to to work with best quality and develop over the country. now if, if you would be a well bang for your opinion to make some calculations and what you need to do,

then we will decide in 5 years or 10 years, or 15 years. and we have to think of ourselves 1st, but needed is that of which and natasha go back to beach on just thinking about themselves. that thinking about future generations as well. that's why for them the price of the highway is just too high or low to end up in middle. i look here for example. see you can see it on the bottom on yes and on as it is a hold. yes, i can see it for the trouble the that's a lot of a small one. the to come in. yeah. well the the tell you there is a little bit here and there are more here. yes. terrace, them tiny crayfish. oh. let me pull this up over to you have no idea on it too. we are in an area here that could be a good,

happy tab to the trout and other species to fish buddies. but the possible for them to give us the, which if we're talking about babies, to have the same on no way to be seen here, to pro, exactly yours. but it's a shame or used to fish this part of the tata all the time. it was full of fish wherever the la puente river on us. the unique feature is monique, where's constitution isn't the 1st article of the class, the country to be an ecological state. but the government and the business and industry sector has been failing for years to deliver on this patient that the, you know, be a while, you know, the other one. i probably won't see of a ton of return to the way it used to be. the law, not quite good from club, maybe some day will recover what not in my lifetime, of probably the motors, you want them in the
