Ne Durres qarkullimi normal eshte i pamundur | ABC News
Në Durrës, fundjavat po bëhet ferr për banorët. Të lëvizësh me makinë duhet të kesh nerva të hekurta. Kurse vend për këmbësoret nuk ka.
Kaos thuajse në çdo rrugë e kryqëzim. Për shkak të vështirësive për të gjetur parkim, drejtuesit ndalojnë dyshe. Korsitë bllokohen dhe trafiku është i pashmangshëm.
Policia nuk duket askund edhe rregullin e vendosin vetë shoferët. Këtu në jo pak raste qarkullimit bllokohet totalisht. Kryqëzimi pranë pallatit të Sportit një tjetër zonë tmerr për lëvizjen.
Parkimi dyshe, ndalesat e mjeteve në vende që bëhen pengesë për qarkullim apo kundratabelë, edhe në kryqëzimin e rrugës “Egnatia” apo në rrugën “Aleksandër Goga”./abcnews.al

Driving to Durrës from Tirana (34 km)
Durrës is the second most populous city in the Republic of Albania. The city is the capital of the surrounding Durrës County, one of 12 constituent counties of the country. By air, it is 165 kilometres (103 miles) northwest of Sarandë, 31 kilometres (19 miles) west of Tirana, 83 kilometres (52 miles) south of Shkodër and 579 kilometres (360 miles) east of Rome. Located on the Adriatic Sea, it is the country's most ancient and economic and historic center.
Founded on the coast of the Illyrian Taulantii by Greek colonists from Corinth and Corfu under the name of Epidamnos (Greek: Επίδαμνος) around the 7th century BC, the city essentially developed to become significant as it became an integral part of the Roman Empire and its successor the Byzantine Empire. The Via Egnatia, the continuation of the Via Appia, started in the city and led across the interior of the Balkan Peninsula to Constantinople in the east. In the Middle Ages, it was contested between Bulgarian, Venetian and Ottoman dominions.
Following the Albanian Declaration of Independence, the city served as the capital of the Principality of Albania for a short period of time. Subsequently, it was annexed by the Kingdom of Italy and Nazi Germany in the interwar period. Moreover, the city experienced a strong expansion in its demography and economic activity during the Communism in Albania.
Durrës is served by the Port of Durrës, one of the largest on the Adriatic Sea, which connects the city to Italy and other neighbouring countries. Its most considerable attraction is the Amphitheatre of Durrës that is included on the tentative list of Albania for designation as a UNESCO World Heritage site. Once having a capacity for 20,000 people, it is the largest amphitheatre in the Balkan Peninsula.

The amphitheater once seated 20,000 people and hosted matches with gladiators and the torture and murder of early Christians. In the fifth century a Christian church was built on the site.
