Route
editThe M22.3 begins at the Serbia-Kosovo border, at Jarinje. The terrain is mountainous, and forms the first part of the Mitrovica bypass. The road is a 1x1 road, with it being very narrow at some parts. The road runs parallel to the Ibar River, which made construction easier because of the Ibar River valley. The road ends at its junction with the M-2 highway.[citation needed]
History
editDuring Yugoslavian times, the road was very important due to it connecting the M22 with the M2. After Kosovo's independence, the road still was called as M-22.3. The road in recent years has been renumbered to N-22.3, it its unknown when this happened.[2]
