Due to the announced reconstruction of the Crnaja tunnel, today businessmen from Jablanica, but also Konjic and Mostar, blocked the main road M-17, Mostar - Sarajevo for 15 minutes.

Businessmen are asking for firm written guarantees from the PE "Roads of FB&H" and the Government of FB&H about how long the suspension of traffic will last during the execution of works.

Ahmedin Šabanagić, the director of "Autoprevoz" Mostar, said that this road was a lifeline for them.

- Our business depends on that, any delay longer than 15 minutes will mean double costs for us - he said.

Jusuf Džafić, president of the Association of Businessmen of Jablanica, said that today it was shown that this is not only a problem of businessmen from Jablanica, but also of Konjic and Mostar, which together represent more than 1,000 businessmen.

-If the delays will be two hours, then let them tell us- he said.
