The M9.1 (Albanian: Nacionale 9.1, Serbian: Magistralni put 9.1) also commonly known as Rruga Klinë-Gjakovë and N9.1 is a road which connects the western and southwestern part of Kosovo. It starts from the M9-M9.1 junction, passes through cities such as Peja Gjakova and Morina, and ends at the Albanian border. The road is 53 kilometers long.[1]

Route

[edit]

The M9.1 begins at the junction of the M9 and M9.1 road. The road is a 2x2 road but only for a short length, where the rest of the road continues as an 1x1 road. In Gjakova, it is a narrow city road. The road ends at the Albanian border at Morine.[2]

History

[edit]

During Yugoslavian times, the road was very insignificant. It was a dirt-paved road, but was important to the city of Gjakova. In 2008–2009, the road became asphalted. After Kosovo's independence, the road still was called as M-9.1. The road in recent years has been renumbered to N-9.1, it its unknown when this happened.[3]
