The construction of the Vinjan viaduct, which is the third and also the last viaduct on the route of the second railway track between Koper and Divača, has been completed. The viaduct is 620 metres long and is one of the three viaducts built in the framework of the infrastructurally complex project of building the second track of the Divača–Koper railway line, which will significantly enhance the competitiveness of the Port of Koper, further reducing freight transport on the road network. The second track is Slovenia's window to the world, but in the future the Government will pay attention to the railway network development throughout the country.

At the opening of the Vinjan viaduct, the Prime Minister Robert Golob said that it was a proof of Slovenia’s knowledge and ability to integrate different know-how resources and skills, stressing that it is in this way, with knowledge and determination, that Slovenia can find the place in the world it deserves.

In this issue of Slovenia Weekly you will also read about the fact that the Slovenian community in Australia has good reason to rejoice: After losing its regular weekly show on SBS national radio last April, which had been on the programme since long ago in 1975, Slovenian broadcast is back on the Australian radio in Sydney and soon in Melbourne.
