History

edit

Section from Andrijevica to Murino was part of M-9 highway which was officially opened for traffic in 1984.[2] It was built as part of the larger M-9 highway within the Yugoslav highway network, spanning Montenegro, Kosovo and Serbia. It connected Kolašin and Andrijevica with Peć and Priština in Kosovo, and Leskovac and Pirot in Serbia.[3]

In January 2016, the Ministry of Transport and Maritime Affairs published bylaw on categorisation of state roads.[1] With new categorisation, R-2 regional road was lengthened, and now it includes part of previous M-9 highway and complete previous R-9 regional road. M-9 highway was downgraded and split to several regional roads.
