The work carried out so far on the ground floor arrangement of the Great Scaffolding in Ulcinj cost over 800 thousand euros and has entered the final phase, but the outlines of a modern and attractive space are still not visible, as it appears in the conceptual winning solution at the tender announced by the investor. Public enterprise for the management of marine assets.
This can also be seen in the video sent to "Vijesti" by a reader the day before yesterday: the construction site is empty even though it is a working day, there is paving material, cement, a mixer on the plateau... Only the light poles remind us of the conceptual solution.
Work on the ground floor arrangement of the Great Scaffold began in October 2022, and the deadline for the realization of the project was 120 days. After that, the Municipality announced that the project would be completed by the beginning of last season, but that deadline was also missed.
The contractor is the company DOO "Erlang", and the investment for the first phase exceeds the figure of 800 thousand euros. With the second phase, the total investment amounts to almost one million euros.
"News" was recently told in Morski Dobr that the project has entered the second phase.
"The first phase of the work on the ground floor arrangement of the Great Scaffold has been completed. The second phase of paving is underway, after which it is planned through the Plan for the use of financial resources for the year 2024 to rehabilitate the foundations of the Great Scaffolding after obtaining urban planning and technical conditions and preparation of technical documentation. The protection of the Great Pier against the impact of waves will be carried out by the construction of an underwater pier. The assumption for the realization of this investment is the completion of the amendment and addition of the DSL sector 63, after which the technical documentation will be prepared, and thus this investment will be realized", it was written in the answer of JP to the question at what stage are the works on the ground floor arrangement of the Great Scaffolding and how JP plans to protect that area from the impact of large waves. At that time, they did not answer the question regarding when the realization of that million-dollar project and a very important project can be expected.
The planned use of that area, which includes a total of 4.600 square meters, is a square-dock with a green belt along the rocks at the foot of the Old Town.
Along the rocks below the Old Town, the formation of a green belt is planned, a zone with low autochthonous vegetation that does not require too much care, and several pine and olive trees that provide shade and enrich the ambiance.
Ecological materials were used during the development of the main project. Finishing of the waterfront is planned from printed concrete and stone.
In the meantime, the Erlang company has confirmed to "News" that already at the very beginning of the works, significant discrepancies between the actual situation on the ground and the prepared project were noted, in the part of the concrete surface of the promenade.
"The result of the noted irregularities is the extension of the deadlines, as well as the finding of a new technical solution for the concrete surface of the promenade. In a new technical solution, the excavated material from the scaffolding can be used," Erlanga said.
With the realization of the project, Ulciinj will get a border crossing at the sea for the first time.
