More delays on Slovenian section of Karavanke tunnel

Jesenice, 24 October - Workers excavating a second tube of the Karavanke motorway tunnel towards Austria were planned to reach the Austria side of the tube this autumn. However, the difficult geological conditions on the Slovenian side of the Karavanke mountain range have further delayed the works, so the team is now expected to break through in spring 2024.
