Serbia is planning to begin works on the €800m ($1bn) Corridor 10 highway project during 2010.

A Serbian consortium is expected to construct a 110km section of a highway as part of the project.

Tenders will be released for three tunnel projects totalling €218m ($278m), according to worldhighways.com.

The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, and the European Investment Bank are expected to provide funds for several sections of the project.
