History

In 1975, a tunnel under the Semolj was started. It would have been 1750 m long, and 420 m were excavated before the work was stopped the same year. [2]

In January 2016, the Ministry of Transport and Maritime Affairs published bylaw on categorisation of state roads.[1] With new categorisation, part of R-18 regional road between Tušina and Mioska was renamed as R-21 regional road.
