[MK] Macedonian motorways - Page 7

Even Greek would have made more sense to me instead of French.

Using French and not Albanian language in the macedonian motorways is nothing but a slap in the face for the Albanian population, which makes up close to 30% of the population, by the slavs in macedonia!It just shows how tolerant the slavic govt of macedonia is towards 30% of its (undesired) population. Especially when you see that most of those signs lead to cities with majority Albanian population like Tetove, Prishtine, Kumanove...

Okay, back to highways now...

Timon91 · November 1st, 2008, 12:44 PM

Whatever

Back to the motorways

Albaneren · November 16th, 2008, 11:08 PM

Why are Macedonia using yellow emergency lanes?

Verso · November 16th, 2008, 11:10 PM

Why not? Is there anything wrong with yellow?

Albaneren · November 16th, 2008, 11:11 PM

Its ugly.

radi6404 · November 16th, 2008, 11:20 PM

white looks better but whether you think yellow looks ugly or not wont make the government choose white for future motorways.

RS.ban · November 17th, 2008, 01:37 AM

yellow is relic from Yugoslavia time, all new motorways have white markings.

Timon91 · November 17th, 2008, 08:36 AM

Nice pics, RS.ban. Landscape reminds me of Italy. Beautiful

radi6404 · November 17th, 2008, 10:35 AM

Great pics RS Ban, the motorways look very good.

snupix · November 17th, 2008, 10:49 AM

Do you guys read the threads at all? These are the pics from a few pages before...

radi6404 · November 17th, 2008, 11:09 AM

I looked at all the pics, I don´t like that all crashbarriers are muddy and even bended, it also seems that the Greek company didn´t add proper asphalt, it can´t be that it looks like 1 year old asphalt after opening, but when I was in Greek I saw that the quality is pretty low, too. Motorway markings were not thermoplast and the overall quality was not very high.

RS.ban · November 17th, 2008, 04:31 PM

you r talking aaout new skopje bypass? where did u see bended crasharriers?

radi6404 · November 17th, 2008, 05:12 PM

Ofcourse they are bended, not to the side but they are up and down and any Macoedinan road I´ve seen had the crashbarriers up and down and not only they. Many roads even in rich countries like Germany but I´ve seen also in Slovenia have motorway crashbarriers up and down and that looks like bad work

Here on the motorway which can be an example of other motorways nothing is bended, there are a few places with crashbarriers up and down but very few, the Skope bypass is ok but there are way worse roads, new with crashbarriers bended up and down. They might seem up and down but that´s because the whole road goes up and down again because of hilly terrain. If you would measure the height of a pole on which the crashbarrier lies all would be exactly the same height.

Verso · November 17th, 2008, 08:37 PM

Let me guess: it's Struma?

Timon91 · November 17th, 2008, 08:38 PM

We know Radi well enough now

What other motorway loks that clean after 2 years and so impressive? The emergency lane is as wide there as the driving lane.

Timon91 · November 18th, 2008, 01:49 PM

Would you mind to resize it next time, Radi? My screen is not that big

radi6404 · November 18th, 2008, 02:37 PM

It was on purpose in original size, because even on that very detailed pic the motorway has nothing to complain about, so why resize, if I had resized it it would look even more perfect.
