The Turkish group is particularly interested in the construction of the Banja Luka-Prnjavor motorway and the bridge on the Sava river at Gradiska, on the border with Croatia. Officials from the Republic's motorway operator Autoputevi RS and its project consultancy firm Deloitte were also present at the meeting.

Autoputevi RS opened in December an international tender for the design and construction of the 35.3-km Banja Luka-Prnjavor motorway section to be financed via a EUR 200mn EIB loan. The tender deadline expires on February 15, 2013 and the whole project is expected to cost EUR 250mn. Construction works should start at the end of the spring or the beginning of the summer of 2013. Banja Luka-Prnjavor will lie on the future 72-km motorway between Banja Luka and Doboj.

In addition, The Republic plans to launch a tender and pick up a contractor for the Sava bridge by the start of this year's construction season. The project financing will be 50/50 split between Bosnia and Croatia. The bridge will link the E-661 Gradiska-Banja Luka motorway with the Zagreb-Lipovac motorway in Croatia, which lies on pan-European Corridor 10. The corridor connects Austria's Salzburg with Greece's Thessaloniki via Slovenia, Croatia, Serbia and Macedonia.

Two of the contracts, worth a combined BAM 16.5mn, concern the production of 155mm caliber ammunitions. The third contract of BAM 14mn is for assembling and selling piles of stock. Bosnia's Federation industry minister Erdal Trhulj was quoted as saying that thanks to the deals the company will be able to pay its overdue liabilities and arrears to workers.
