The company 'Gener 2' started the works on the road axis Thumanë - Kashar, still without receiving the development permit, i.e. the document that would define the development conditions and serve as the basis for the construction permit.
In the agenda of the meeting of the National Council of the Territory on December 14, the equipment with the development permit of the concession company "Gener 2" was noted, while the works have started at least since November 20, without having any document that allows the company the beginning of the construction of this road axis.
Residents of the village of Bërxulle have been protesting for more than a month under the argument that the construction company deviated from the initial project, and even went further by blocking the discharge collectors, which caused several hectares of land to be flooded.
Residents also express concern that the value of their land is being minimized and the compensation they receive from the expropriation is far from the real value of the land.
The concession contract for the Thumane Kashar axis is worth 245 million euros. In addition, citizens will also pay a tax for passing by car on this road axis, from which it is expected to collect over 1.3 billion euros during the 35 years of the concession. Meanwhile, the Ministry of Infrastructure guarantees the profit to the concessionaire with a fund of tens of millions of euros.
