"Night work will be 50 percent more expensive, labor will be more expensive. Yes, it's true. But give me a calculation of how much it costs for a man to come from Maribor to Ljubljana to work and drive three hours, work here eight hours and then think he'll drive home three more hours.

The article discusses the increased cost of night work, highlighting that it will be 50% more expensive due to higher labor costs. It references Minister for Infrastructure Jernej Vrtovec's criticism of short-sighted planning of roadworks in Slovenia, which fails to consider broader economic impacts of traffic disruptions. The piece includes a calculation example involving travel time between Maribor and Ljubljana.
