The Montenegrin road infrastructure is not as advanced as European standards. Still, car rental is the best way of travelling through Montenegro and see the most remote sights. Despite an extensive road network, no roads are constructed to full highway standards, though two current roadway projects, the Bar - Boljare highway and the Montenegrin section of Adriatic Ionian highway, should change this. Building of these highways is considered a national priority, as both are important for regional economic development and the development of Montenegro as an elite tourist destination visited by many world known celebrites from sport and showbusiness.
