Our editorial team received photos and a video from Kozjak, where on Sunday, December 28, unmarked trucks were seen transporting construction materials. The reader recorded them during a Sunday walk, surprised that the work was being carried out on Sundays during the holidays, and also stated that the trucks had no markings. Željan Jurlin from Javni dobr also commented on the same situation, stating his vision of the entire situation. Allegedly, the company LZ Projekti from the Kozjak tunnel construction site is transporting construction materials to Cemex's coffee shop?
- From the Chinese construction site of the Kozjak tunnel on the south side above Kaštela, heavy trucks from LZ Projekt transport construction waste - excavation along the old fire and hiking road to the Cemex coffee (quarry). On Sundays, high on Kozjak, eight unregistered trucks dust from the exit from the Kozjak tunnel to the western part of the Cemex coffee. Right before the end of the year, when no one is working in the construction site anymore, on December 28, 2025 at 12:45 p.m., the exact same scene is repeated as on October 2, which we, as a Javno Dobro party, reported to the State Inspectorate. A report for which the State Inspectorate still refuses to send us a report - states Jurlin and adds that trucks without license plates and contractor's marks transport excavation along the fire road at the foot of the Kozjak hill to the Cemex coffee area.
How is it possible that such an illegal story with the disposal of construction excavation from the construction site of the "state-important" Vučevica-Kaštela road, all without declassification, with illegal transport and transport, is being repeated? Who "approved" and organized this again for a foreign contractor from China, China Road and Bridge Corporation, Jurlin wonders.
Jurlin states that on October 1, 2024, Jure Bosančić, the owner of a company with unregistered dump trucks, as a subcontractor of the Cemex company, appeared on the construction site without authorization with machines that by law should not leave the concession area, i.e. Cemex's coffee. He was transporting construction materials via a fire road, i.e. along the route below Kozjak to Cemex's coffee, according to the statement of the owner of the LZ-project himself.
He goes on to state that the excavation is state property and by law must go to a registered landfill and must not be used until declassified as bulk material. However, this was ignored here and the excavation was not temporarily postponed at the construction site, but Cemex's coffee itself was rehabilitated with that material. Remedial material, if it is a declassified excavation, Cemex must pay considerable amounts to the Republic of Croatia for adequate remedial material - concludes Jurlin.
We sent an inquiry on this topic to Croatian Roads, given that they are the investors in the construction of the Kozjak tunnel, but also to the company LZ projekt itself.
