R-19 regional road () (previously part of M-9 highway) is a Montenegrin roadway.
This road will be a parallel road to section of BarâÂÂBoljare motorway from Mateà ¡evo to Andrijevica. As of 2017, no work has been done on this section.
The M-9 highway was officially opened for traffic in 1984. It was built as part of the larger M-9 highway within the Yugoslav highway network, spanning Montenegro, Kosovo and Serbia. It connected Kolaà ¡in and Andrijevica with Peàand Prià ¡tina in Kosovo, and Leskovac and Pirot in Serbia. Following the breakup of Yugoslavia, the segment between Murino and Peàwas closed during the Kosovo War in 1999. In 2010, work began on asphalting 10 kilometres of the road between Murino and ÃÂakor, with the intention of reopening the road for vehicular traffic. An additional 12 kilometres of road was planned to be asphalted between ÃÂakor and the Kosovar border.
The M-9 highway originally flowed through the city of Kolaà ¡in to connect it to the M-2 highway. A bypass was built via the Vladoà ¡ Bridge to merge the M-9 with the M-2. On 27 March 2014, the Ministry of Transport and Maritime Affairs officially realigned the M-9 highway to its current alignment, incorporating the Vladoà ¡ Bridge, while downgrading the M-9's former path through Kolaà ¡in as a municipal road.
In January 2016, the Ministry of Transport and Maritime Affairs published bylaw on categorisation of state roads. With new categorisation, R-19 highway was created, from part of previous M-9 highway.
