Mitrovica City). It connects the N2 National Road with the road �Minatoret e Trepces�. The interchange is located in an urbanized area where the buildings are located too close to it.

The improved road will facilitate the local population�s access to health, education and other social amenities, as well as production centers and job opportunities.
