Minister Says Yes to 2nd Rail Track to Koper, Wants to Halve Costs

Ljubljana, 18 October - Infrastructure and Spatial Planning Minister Samo Omerzel announced Friday that the second railway line between the sea port of Koper and the Divača inland hub would be built after all, while adding that the last cost estimate for the project, EUR 1.4bn, seemed exaggerated. "I dare claim that the second track can be built for half this price."
