An agreement securing €2.8 million grant from the European Union (EU) to develop a joint border railway station between North Macedonia and Serbia was signed today in Skopje by the First Deputy President of the Government and Minister of Transport, Mr Nikoloski and EBRD Head of North Macedonia, Mr Türkmenoğlu.
The EU funds, which are provided through the Western Balkans Investment Framework (WBIF) , complement a €5 million loan already provided by the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) and will finance construction and technical assistance.
The joint border crossing will be located in Tabanovce, in North Macedonia, on the Corridor X rail route, which is part of the Trans-European Transport Network (TEN-T) extension to the Western Balkans region.
