as well then progress as top costs for everyone who wants to know more about this topic. that concerned about this story is beyond the headline world in progress. the w plus cost the the tyra canyon and northern montenegro. reaching down some 1300 meters, the unesco world heritage site is the deepest orange 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, but they want to have a high rate on know. i mean, this is the 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 project environmental and safety consultants. others to this is a construction site like the mix, actually all screwed up. i call it a 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 terrorism. but the construction of the highway, his dash that dreams for the time being the edge of 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 spend is coming 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 drizzle forces before man, rivers. like these have taken millions of years to form settlement deposits which close the capillaries 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 moder, is seeping into the ground. plus the river bed has been new news for the day. according to is the fish are gone and life has disappeared from the river color. so we basically have a desert here. i'd say the water level is only a 3rd or half of what it used to be. maybe a triple, the unspoiled nature of montenegro is its greatest treasure. and well, this is exactly what to us from the west. come here for the service is

a sizable portion of monte negroes 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 sad about what's happened to this beautiful rivers which should have been saved by any means necessary to and this was evident scott, proudly like kaiser. this recorded, according to european regulations, mistress of highway here, should have been as short as possible. the partridge was dead. it runs a full 2 kilometers along the river bank to the highway is being built by the china road and bridge corporation of all 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. ready 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 adriatic sea to the vice of the 42 kilometers between the capital put gaudy time and quarter lashing 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. at exxon domestic is a month to meet when consultant who has been involved as the direct if 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 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 which was very challenging for 5. and the design is really difficult to deal with the huge difference and elevation. we have 12 elements of 1000 explains that project the lowest. one thing that happened to the $560.00, or 100 years from now, if it comes from for,

for the rest of the capital and then on the coast, it will be an assessment for me. it's a, it was a challenge and the 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 part of the country and attract more towards this. this section is scheduled to open in a month 3 years later than planned up to 3000 chinese workers are employed 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 that the singles and the list of things that sending policies to 4 months and it shows up in the, in the software. this is up to the allow the head. 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 sense of how to make sure that they'll have them inside the construction company. his face repeated criticism, especially in connection with environmental violation. be honest. this was but i'm not sure that you 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, but it's still us will design the routes of the highway. we did it according to the conceptual design made by the government. this is the

section attracting most criticism from the ponies to the highway web bridge, p as run directory on the rest of the several kilometers for this particular area we made let me do some plan which was adopted and approved by the environment agency. the section agency is you can see at the top of the phone and put the at the grocery upon the grass and found some, some, some nice sees and the little green and the river receive 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 a high rate on. so, i mean, this is a cost of civilization. but still, again, i wouldn't mind him into the bowl down and drink from from the service. i

mean, is that of it's fishing club protected and took care of the fish population of guitar and their 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 this and to him was an engineer called man's son for, for driving the phone. when we began to question why a highway was even allowed to be built that exist, 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 that roberts will let them is a government declared vital information to be subject to state secrecy. it was by no means the last of the we still don't know where the money went. now, instead of 800000000 euros, the highway costs over a 1000000000 or solar system in the course of a subsequently out of this 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 of 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, she baton and 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. here is the only sort of listening when months also began criticizing 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 crowd 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 couldn't that we never said no to the you was very nice, but they would just no serious offers me and meal. and i understand you're not the thing is that's the simplest concepts of why we chose the chinese company is that it had the best and cheapest of the technical me slope customer. the critics attack of saying it was a highway from nowhere to nowhere. what i get an adult to me slowly, quickly, quality, in fact, what we started with the most difficult section of the type of root 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, coil motion with the folks. some of the few things that i didn't know 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 tourists in summer. but the damage to the tower river has ruined his plans. those small bits and then usually add a drop of nail polish to ferment all of crap. your problem is, sonia my dream was to organize a world championship for fly fishing and montenegro school programs. the benefits for local residents would be a normal site and it's we are over envelopes as low as 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. and so the poor throw should and extend the med tech to only sit on the highway construction site every day to ensure everything is caustic, the head of the opening. as i said, everything will be here. you have also police station firefighters service area, and the come on the face. the c'mon center is the brain of the highway. the around 560 cameras has been installed along the 42 columbia to stretch the 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 about just too fast. then if a smoke up would appear. and you have special, especially design software to recognize the small basic at 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 singapore and malaysia. so the subset of everything. yeah. yeah, that's the only system on the final the cnbc is, is delivering a fantastic product to citizens and i'm sure this will save 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 a question which is a big safety issue. 5, extend them of that. they just drove into it all. yes. and they put their foot down because to me, at a 120 last the option is, what are they getting? they don't know? are they bribing someone? i really have no idea sites. it's really difficult to, to fight this. that every, every single day, 24 hours. okay, thanks for now. all of that to then wait for them then when our stuff for their products, are they the ones who came in it's smoke? that's okay. let me know if i'm not catching the illegal sales process and a 65 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 rogue driver's location is from sub you to i in too much of a hurry to get to be a drastic coast. the afternoon, you know, this is a construction site. just 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. so i totally think like a gold dress, everybody so keen to to drive on the highway because the kind of the roads drive for get it sent 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 rate of box. and then you have a big like a canyon, a big rock pulling down pennies. it's very nettle, it's very cody. 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 the car, then it just leads over to the rails has been many so many victims jeffrey dex events along this road. a year ago, a colleague of alexander has also had to stay to accident here. one of the strongest arguments cited by highway advocates is that the project will help to avoid further such tragedies. that was that a good date,

each from the man's 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 and all subcontractors involved. so you ought to be sick of that is that 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 away. but it's also fun, 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 with us which has become the dumping ground. so rubble and debris from the tunnel. those will fall on your phone a lot cordial. so what do you think 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, 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 garbage. the smoke about sloop, we simply for dosing. apple hasn't started long around the point where it says he was not even part of the original agreement. it was added later, a great deal, oregon 9. busy black star e knox to avoid the robot on of course we need a highway on yale. 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. and for the civil, do you have any question benefits here? of a sudden down pull changes lesson plans,

he's driving to visit someone who's properties right on the highway of the most of the people like patty shell, bicycle beach are an important source of information. so as the patient is it the same 7 to quote cases because the construction materials used in the so called risk management and stuff and he's gotten which is right next to one of the towers. cubic feet or 2, something like that was just dumped on my field. not to mention the big stone. you always have the form you graduated in scope of this material that was dug out of the my tissue time on is. what am i to shovel 3 is for 5, i knew the over there is the tunnels x. it will go through the some are you going to is that need to know what that was taken out of that tunnel and ended up here in the gardens use of a is a general be a little don't watch. we tried to get them to take it away. that's cool. but it's dave here, i'm sorry. was that 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. you got them. scott says all of it . and it looks ugly. when you build the site, you split your new like me, widow, or 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 or no, i bet felicia, he's abandoned. he's gone into full years because of the construction site. mila has of visited 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 in the countries relations janet communicating this national . i'm not blaming the chinese name is i'm blaming

a government. is that those water next the i'm a whichever. uh, 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 on to the green state property as compensation, equity. and excuse me, my most them just for the most unlikely. the one that could affect strategically important assets. steve stuff truck up up with a symbol. for example. appleton barley, illinois. the nicky defendant before the railroad claim um, which i just need say stuck with the global. so this is a danger that has already become reality in other countries will try the course of which cost fairly well. we'll do games. i mean i'm of that stuff. so the 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 and get them in this level, then we'll get out to him on with the we have a week democracy,

save on dana country. it's investors with pretty aggressive kind of take us to the, to the ones with influenza them yet, but kind of grew to even the bulk and countries like montenegro as the by a to a new member shadonia that becoming increasingly oriented to truly nice investment . in skinner's k, with state government feel more comfortable working with the chinese government and chinese investments. so probably because best on that, so not the same. and a more convenient if you had a less than a full portion of understand that the new nice to me will right now it's on 3 a when to even to build the to missing highway sections to the coast and to sub. yeah. so this is the end of the roads so you can see and the 42 kilometer long highway this is the, the hill called especially big this it will be the next challenge. hopefully we'll

see how to be see the next phase from under it. so i bet on there is to 7 boulder and i and i highly appreciate the chinese investors and, and time is extreme back. and i think in the balkans, 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 on what you need to do, then we wouldn't start in 5 years or 10 years, or 15 years. and we have to think of our sales 1st. but meet it as that of each and the tasha cove, actual 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. the little i look here for example. see, you can see it on the bottom on yes and on as it is a quote. yes, i can see it. so 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, some 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 touch, the trout and other species of fish buddies. but the buffering with the blue give us the if we're talking about the baby to have the same on no way to be seen here to pro, exactly yours, but it's a shame i used to fish this part of the tub all the time. it was full of fish wherever the la puente river on us. this is a unique feature is monique, where's constitution isn't the 1st article to 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 the, all the other websites. 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, but not in my lifetime, probably at the moment you open the,

the, the most disease. they have a key to sustainable season urban centers devouring energy the world as a to solution small it's greg intention, telenetwork the centralized control. the biggest disease of tomorrow. most climate friend the, the
