The state will finance the construction of a bobsled on rails as an integral part of the six-seater cable car K8 - Troglava, in the area of the state Ski Center Kolašin 1600, and that work is worth three million euros.
As the Ministry of Tourism, Ecology of Sustainable Development and Development of the North wrote to the Directorate for Capital Projects, they estimated the cost of designing and carrying out bobsled on rails, "based on an analysis of the market value of the Ski Resort of Montenegro".

The project assignment for the preparation of the Conceptual Solution, the Main Project and the construction were submitted to that department from the Ski Resort.

Vladimir Martinovic.
The tender for the contractor was announced on April 5. As written in the tender documentation, the public procurement contract will be implemented according to the "design and build" principle, by which the contractor undertakes independently to perform all the work necessary for the construction and use of the complete facility.
As described in the documentation, it is a facility that does not have its own drive, but will depend on the cable car. It is planned to be connected to the electricity of the start station of the cable car.
According to the technical specification, the rail on which the vehicles - bobsleds move, should be of assembly-disassembly type made of prochrome, aluminum, stainless steel or their alloys. As explained, bobsleigh on rails will be used during the summer months, while during the winter season the part of the rails on the tracks will be dismantled.
"The length of the rail along which the free-fall vehicles - bobsleds are lowered - should be 2.200 meters. The intersections of rails and existing roads should be solved in such a way that the rails will be mounted on bridges whose height should be such that passenger and freight vehicles can pass under the bridge... Bob should have two seats, one of which is for an adult, and the second for a child up to eight years old. It is necessary to deliver a total of 40 vehicles, as well as five carts for their transport", it is written in part of the tender documentation.
