The WORLD BANK made a loan equivalent to $35 million to assist in financing the completion of Yugoslavia’s two most important highways, the Central Highway and the Adriatic Highway. The highways were intended to open the country to Western European road traffic, reduce transport and road maintenance costs and stimulate tourism, an important source of foreign exchange earnings.
