1 Sub-corridor assessment Orient/East-Med Corridor (Kosovo) * Key findings The task of this report is to discuss climate impacts on the Route 7 corridor between Merdare and Prishtina, Kosovo 1. For this purpose a modified CLIMACOR II methodology is used, which includes a survey followed by a validation workshop held in Prishtina. Main findings of this process show that the sub-segment from Vranidoll (Врани До) village to Lluzhan (Лужане) village is the area where major risks are foreseen to happen. This includes area from where Llapi River crosses the road on Lluzhan (Лужане) village and gets closest to the road in Lupç i Poshtëm (Доње Љупче) village. The latter is also prone to flash floods. The same area is also prone to erosion from both river Llap from west and hills from the eastern side of the road. Mitigation measures to prevent such issues from appearing are proposed in this study. 1. Transport infrastructure The Core Road Network of southeast Europe consists of three Corridors (containing 8 corridor branches) and seven Routes (containing 9 route branches). The estimated total length of the network is 5,975 km (3,019 km of Corridors and 2,956 km of Routes). Within Kosovo *, there are no main Corridors, however there are some 250 km of Routes 6 and 7, which are important at regional level.

2 Figure 2: Flash Flood Hazard Level Distribution Map for Kosovo * The map showing road network of Kosovo * and insert with the segment under consideration in this report are presented in Figure 1. Route 6 connects Ribarevina (Montenegro) to Skopje (FYROM) through Zubin Potok, Mitrovica (Косовска Митровица), Prishtina, Ferizaj (Урошевац) and Hani i Elezit (Елез Хан) (Kosovo * ). At Ribarevina Route 6 connects to Route 4 connecting the port of Bar (Montenegro) to Belgrade (Serbia) and Vatin (Romanian border). Route 7, part of which is the segment from Prishtina to Merdare, connects Lezhe (Albania) to Dolcevac (Serbia) through Vermica (Врбница), Prizren, Prishtina and Podujevë (Подујево) (Kosovo * ). Dolcevac is located on Corridor X. Road M2, going from the Northern Kosovo *, through Pristina, to the Southern bundary with Republic of Macedonia. This road corresponds to Route 6 of SEETO Core Road Network. Road M25, coming from Nis (Serbia) to the North-Eastern boundary with Serbia, through Pristina and Prizren, to the Southern boundary with Albania. This road corresponds to Route 7 of the SEETO Core Road Network. Road M9, from Eastern boundary with Serbia, through Pristina, to Pejë (Пећ), and to the Western boundary with Montenegro. Part of this road is also part of rout 7 till Arllat (Орлате), after deviation of highway rout form original plan. The section towards the boundary of Montenegro is currently being upgraded, It is completed till Kijevë (Кижево) from Prishtina side and started widening from Pejë (Пећ) in direction of Prishtina, and this will improve the link to Montenegro. Additional main roads are M9.1, M22.3, M25.2 and M25.3 (see Figure 1.) that constitute branches of these main links. VRAM Flash Flood Risk Assessment Figure 4, 2 P a g e
3 The core network is well organized, with Pristina in its centre and connects well all regions of the economy to the capital city of Prishtina. The part of Rout 7 that passes through Kosovo * is completed from Albanian boundary till north of Prishtina. The uncompleted part of this route in Kosovo * is the segment under consideration in this study, a 26.5 km long, magistrale road with two lanes. The topography of the terrain is mostly flat, with part form connection of highway north of Prishtina to Lluzhan (Лужане) village consisting of forested hills from the eastern side of the road and river Llap from the western part. The river crosses the road on Lluzhan (Лужане) village and gets closest to the road in Lupç i Poshtëm (Доње Љупче) village. The later is also prone to flash floods as shown in maps with read part showing the high risk from floods. The topography of the rest of route, from Lluzhan (Лужане) to Merdare, is more or less flat, high in humus (organic matter) land, which if not properly designed and constricted drainage system can be prone to flash floods as well. The part from Prishtina to Lluzhan (Лужане) village is especially vulnerable to both landslides from hills and erosion from river or flash floods (se Figure 2). Figure 3: Congestion based on Average Annual Daily Traffic (AADT), scenario without network development 3 The quality of the existing road is average, but the congestion of the road is of major concern. According to Action and Investment Plan for Kosovo * Road, carried out by BCEOM - COWI Consortia in 2009, that measured the congestion based on Average Annual Daily Traffic (AADT), the segment from Prishtina to Podujevë (Подујево) (see Figure 2. is already congested and needs to be widened. The estimated cost for this construction of four-lane road is estimated to be Euro 150 million for the whole segment under consideration. First 3 km of this road, starting from Podujevë (Подујево) in direction to Prishtina, are already under construction. In addition, during the Workshop held in Prishtina (October 7th 2016), we learned that Ministry of Infrastructure of Kosovo * has done a feasibility study to build an additional highway that runs parallel to this road, but which will be constructed in a green field. We do not have the feasibility study to conclude on need for such an additional road at this time, but based on the 2009 feasibility study and AADT analyses done for different scenarios, with an assumed traffic growth rate of 4% per annum, there might be no need for such a dramatic increase in road capacity of this segment.

During the survey carried out with Kosovo * respondents (see Appendix I), the following 10 threats were considered as major threats: T2. Erosion and slide of embankments due to heavy showers T1. Bridge scour due to heavy showers T8. Failure of flood defence systems of rivers and lakes due to long periods of rain in catchment area T10. Ground subsidence, slide, or collapse on the inland transport infrastructure due to long periods of rain in catchment T5. Fluvial flooding due to heavy showers (overland flow after precipitation, groundwater level increase) T6. Loss of driving ability due to reduced visibility and vehicle control due to heavy showers T9. Erosion or slides of infrastructure and embankment due to long periods of rain in catchment T11. Pluvial flooding due to long periods of rain in catchment (overland flow after precipitation, groundwater level increase) T14. Erosion of embankments and foundations due to increased variability in warm/cool days T18. Cracking, embrittlement due to thermal expansion; migration of liquid asphalt, asphalt rutting due to heatwaves T38. Reduced ability to perform general maintenance due to snowfall/blizzards (snow and ice removal) Table 1: The key to score on threat route availability/usability, and human & route safety hazard THREAT TO ROUTE AVAILABILITY/USABILITY Score Severity Negligible impact on the availability 1 (Up to a few hours) A minimal negative impact on the availability (up to a day) A serious impact on the availability (several days, up to a month) A catastrophic impact on the availability (more than a month of unavailable transport to significant numbers of people) HUMAN & ROUTE SAFETY HAZARD Score Severity 1 A negligible impact on user safety (light material damage), injuries that won t result in hospital visit 2 An influence that reaches the boundaries of acceptable user safety, with as a consequence a number of extra accidents with temporary loss of health or injuries without absence (material damage, slight injuries) 3 An influence to such extent that the boundaries of user safety are exceeded, with as a consequence a serious increase of the number of accidents with permanent loss of health (serious material damage, heavy injuries) 4 A catastrophic influence on user safety, with as a consequence extra deadly danger during normal use (serious material damage, heavy injuries, casualties) 4 P a g e
5 3.7 Graph 2: Threat Severity the average score of threat to route availability/usability, and human & route safety hazard Graph 2 shows that respondents gave equal importance to impact on Availability/Usability (score 3, see explanation in Table 1) of road for threats for T2 (Erosion and slide of embankments due to heavy showers), T5 (Fluvial flooding due to heavy showers), T8 (Failure of flood defence systems of rivers and lakes due to long periods of rain in catchment area), T10 (Ground subsidence, slide, or collapse on the inland transport infrastructure due to long periods of rain in catchment), T5 (Fluvial flooding due to long periods of rain in catchment), T14 (Erosion of embankments and foundations due to increased variability in warm/cool days), and T38 (Reduced ability to perform general maintenance due to snowfall/ blizzards). While for impact on human and route safety the highest score is given to Threat T5 (Fluvial flooding due to heavy showers) (score 3.7 out of 4), followed by T10 (Ground subsidence, slide, or collapse on the inland transport infrastructure due to long periods of rain in catchment) (score 3.3), and T38 (Reduced ability to perform general maintenance due to snowfall/blizzards) (score 3). 5 P a g e
6 Table 2: Threat Likelihood key. 4 Often (more than once every 3 years) 3 Sometimes (once every 3 to 10 years) 2 Seldom (once every 10 to 50 years) 1 Very seldom (once every 50 years) Graph 3: Threat likelihood under current conditions vs. under foreseen climate change conditions. As can be seen in graph 3, the highest likelihood of threats happening under current condition is given to Threats T5 (Fluvial flooding due to heavy showers) and T10 (Ground subsidence, slide, or collapse on the inland transport infrastructure due to long periods of rain in catchment) with equal average score of 3.3 (see explanation in table 2), while most of other top 10 threats have an average score of 3. The highest likelihood of threats happening under foreseen climate change conditions is given to threat T18 (Cracking, embrittlement due to thermal expansion; migration of liquid asphalt, asphalt rutting due to heatwaves) with average score 3.7 out of 4, threat T1 (Bridge scour due to heavy showers) (score 3.5), threats T5 (Fluvial flooding due to heavy showers), threat T9 (Erosion or slides of infrastructure and embankment due to long periods of rain in catchment) and T38 (Reduced ability to perform general maintenance due to snowfall/blizzards) (score 3.3). Risk by Threat Under Current and Foreseen Scenarios The previously concluded assessments of consequences and probabilities are combined in order to rate each threat s risk. This is achieved by multiplying the severity of impact with likelihood of such impact happening for each 10 identified most significant threat, and is shown in Graph 4. It is seen in Graph 4 that under current conditions the highest risk factor is seen for the threats T5 (Fluvial flooding due to heavy showers), T10 (Ground subsidence, slide, or collapse on the inland transport infrastructure due to long periods of rain in catchment), T38 (Reduced ability to perform general maintenance due to 6 P a g e
7 snowfall/blizzards).and T (Pluvial flooding due to long periods of rain in catchment), while under foreseen Climate Change conditions is for T5 (Fluvial flooding due to heavy showers), T38 (Reduced ability to perform general maintenance due to snowfall/blizzards), T10 (Ground subsidence, slide, or collapse on the inland transport infrastructure due to long periods of rain in catchment), and T9 (Erosion or slides of infrastructure and embankment due to long periods of rain in catchment). The main changes from current conditions to foreseen Climate Change conditions are seen for T38 (Reduced ability to perform general maintenance due to snowfall/blizzards) (from score 9 to score 10), T9 (Erosion or slides of infrastructure and embankment due to long periods of rain in catchment) (from 8 to 8.9) T1 (Bridge scour due to heavy showers ) (from score 7 to score 8.2). The threat T5 (Fluvial flooding due to heavy showers) remains the biggest threat under both conditions, but does not change. We also note that some of the threats are foreseen to decrease under conditions of Climate Change [T38 (Reduced ability to perform general maintenance due to snowfall/blizzards), T14 (Erosion of embankments and foundations due to increased variability in warm/cool days), and T8 (Failure of flood defence systems of rivers and lakes due to long periods of rain in catchment area)]. Graph 4. Risk Under current conditions and under foreseen Climate Change conditions. The average respondent prioritizes road Availability over Road Safety in Kosovo * as follows 6.7:3.3. The perception of respondents indicates that the region where the road passes is not perceived to have major safety threats, as the terrain is more or less flat with few obstacles in the subsegment from Vranidoll (Врани До) to Lluzhan (Лужане).

8 ii) Future risks. (Врани До) (Лужане) Лужане Majaнце Доње Љупче Тенеш До Representatives of the Ministry of Infrastructure, Department for Road Management; the University of Prishtina; the Ministry for Environment and Spatial Planning, the Regional Cooperation Council, the Regional Environmental Center for Central and Eastern Europe (REC), the South East European Transport Observatory, the Kosovo * Environmental Protection Agency, GAP Institute; and various consultants came together to discuss climate impacts on the Route 7 corridor between Merdare and Pristina, Kosovo * (see Appendix I). Figure 4 shows the map of the sub-segment from Vranidoll (Врани До) village to Lluzhan (Лужане) village, where major risks are foreseen to happen. This includes area from where Llapi River crosses the road on Lluzhan (Лужане) village and gets closest to the road in Lupç i Poshtëm (Доње Љупче) village. The later is also prone to flash floods as shown in map in Figure 2, with read part showing the high risk from floods. The same area is also at risk from landslides from hills on the eastern side of the road at this sub-segment. The entire area from Vranidoll (Врани До) village to Lluzhan (Лужане) village is especially vulnerable to both landslides from hills and erosion from river or flash floods. Figure 4: Vulnerable part of the road segment under study (source: Google Earth) The topography of the rest of route, from Lluzhan (Лужане) to Merdare, is more or less flat, high in humus (organic matter) land, which if not properly designed and constructed drainage system can be prone to flash floods as well. 8 P a g e

10 3. Recommendations The group determined that infrastructure between Vranidoll (Врани До) village and Lupci I Poshtëm village will be at greatest risk from embankment and infrastructure collapse and mudslides caused by flash flooding, while those around Lupci and Lluzhan (Лужане) and Podujeva will be at risk from prolonged periods of heavy rain. The experts also flagged their concern about road damage caused by prolonged periods of drought during winter. Among the adaptation measures agreed were clay embankments and artificial flood barriers, afforestation, storm water drainage, and the enforcement of access restrictions for heavy-goods vehicles. Threat T5. Fluvial flooding due to heavy showers (overland flow after precipitation, groundwater level increase) T9. Erosion or slides of infrastructure and embankment due to long periods of rain in catchment T10. Ground subsidence, slide, or collapse on the inland transport infrastructure due to long periods of rain in catchment T18. Cracking, embrittlement due to thermal expansion; migration of liquid asphalt, asphalt rutting due to heatwaves (roads) T38. Reduced ability to perform general maintenance due to snowfall/blizzards (snow and ice removal) (roads and railways) Tx. Loss of driving ability due to reduced visibility due to fog during the late autumn and winter seasons Lupç i Poshtëm (Доње Љупче) Place of threat and measures to be taken Protection of River banks, better drainage of road, increasing the height of the road bed. Protection from erosion of bridge struts that are submerged in water and which ought to be reinforced with gabions of 0.5 to 1 m in the river bed 20 m before the pole and 20 m after in the direction of river flow. Segment from Vranidoll (Врани До) to Lupç i Poshtëm (Доње Љупче). Strengthening sloped embankments (constructing protective structures made of reinforced concrete, protective concrete walls, gabions, pilot foundations), afforestation, geo-synthetic embankments Segment from Vranidoll (Врани До) to Lupç i Poshtëm (Доње Љупче). a) reinforcing the road bed with thick layers of gravel and sand; b) putting a reinforced layer on the deformed road with geo-synthetic materials; and c) raising the road level in order to improve drainage of run-off Entire route. Introduction of heavy load truck axes weight measurement, better road bed construction, adding a lasting layer of high temperature resistant asphalt The whole Segment. Automatic road surface salting system when snow and ice occur, implementing early warning system and constructing snow barriers (dedicated barriers for preventing of snow-drifting) Better signalization not required only to cope with the fog threat. Apart from the standard road signalization, it is proposed to use Variable Message Signs (VMS) and dynamic signalizations, particularly upfront the critical sections of the Macedonian segment to inform road users of any irregularity or interested situations on the motorway. Special attention when utilizing VMS needs to be paid to their harmonization at regional or European level, as they need to be understood by all motorway users of different nationalities. 10 P a g e
11 A recommendation was also made for a guidebook on innovative technological solutions for decision makers. To this end, during the road construction the following issues can be expected to appear and the following solutions are advised to solve them: 1. Reinforcement of slopes to protect from landslides can be done by constructing protective structures made of reinforcement concrete, protective concrete walls, gabions, pilot foundations, slope reinforcement with geo-synthetic materials, etc. examples of above mentioned techniques are shown schematically in the figure below. 2. Protection of bridge poles that are submerged in water from erosion. They should be reinforced with gabions of 0.5 to 1 m in the river bad 20 m before the pole and 20 m after the pole of a river bridge in the direction of river flow. 11 P a g e
12 3. In cases when we have to deal with issues of unstable lands where road bad passes through, be it from ground water or unstable surfaces, then the protection can be done in three ways: a) to reinforce the road bad with thick layers of gravel and sand; b) to put a reinforced layer on the deformable road with geo-synthetic materials; and c) to raze the road level in order to improve the water drainage. 12 P a g e
