The construction of the fourth bridge over the Danube, declared a project of national importance, will be one of the priorities of the new municipal government in the next four years, announced the current mayor of Novi Sad. It will be located in the part of the city where a new residential-commercial zone is projected, that is, a tourist-recreational zone, in the part of the public called “Novi Sad on water”. The disagreements at the beginning of the year between the two public companies on the legality of construction on aquatic lands have abated, but not the opposition of the citizens to this great project.

In the place where, according to the mayor’s previous announcements, the construction of the so-called “Novi Sad on water” should have started in 2020, they gathered to signal the message: it cannot. With the construction of a residential and commercial complex on the site of a shipyard and an area intended for sports, tourism and catering in the Kamenička ada area, the citizens of Novi Sad would lose, and only individuals would benefit, is the conclusion of the forum.

“The problem of this project is multiple. The first problem is that this project was created without any international competition, without any competition that respected the needs of citizens. So the problem with this project is that it is oversized and because it puts the profit of entrepreneurs and investors before interests. citizens, “said journalist Nedim Sejdinović.

The interest of citizens, they say, is to preserve the space they use for fishing, walking and recreation. So far, they haven’t been able to hear much about the ideas of urban planners for that part of town, because the whole process took place outside of the public. For architect Darko Reba, that’s a troublesome part.

“I think we would have to decide that at a much higher level, to look at different ideas, look at different approaches and then choose the best one that would benefit us,” says Reba.

Earlier, the Urban Planning Director told H1 that the new plan foresees up to 60 percent more vegetation in Kamenička ada, and that the city along the new embankment will be safer against flooding. According to Novaković, the four documents presented to the People’s Party commissioner for Vojvodina, as he puts it, by a City Council whistleblower and an informant for “Voda Vojvodine”, show Novaković.

“The first is parts of the General Urban Plan, the second is the General Planning Plan, the third is the correspondence between Urbanism and Voda Vojvodina, and the fourth is the report of the Institute of Water Management” Jaroslav Cerni “, two reports and both are negative when it comes to Novi Sad on the water. So we only have four documents. The moment we tore everything up and the moment we made it public, they immediately removed all the documents and from then on it is very difficult to get others documents that perhaps show their true intention, “says Borslav. Novakovic.

The current mayor continues to say that he himself is waiting to see the new proposal for the General Urban Plan, so, he adds, he is not clear on how to discuss a document that does not yet exist.

“I’m just waiting to see how the profession will be defined, because the first one was not acceptable as we predicted. Nothing will be done on the coast without the consent of all factors. I mean the opinion of the” Jaroslav Cerni “Institute and of course” Voda Vojvodine “., Says Mayor Miloš Vučević.

However, “Vode Vojvodine” still considers him a brake on the development of the city, but that, he says, is his personal opinion. On the other hand, in Šodroš of Novi Sad, they draw a parallel with Belgrade in the water and ask the citizens not to allow it to happen again.

SNS: A lot of incorrect information was presented on the platform

As reported by the SNS in a statement, “organized by the vice president of the Popular Party Borislav Novakovic, and in the presence of several dozen unsuccessful boycotters of the elections, a round table on” Novi Sad in the water “was held near the Shipyard , during which a lot of incorrect coastal regulation information was made on the left bank of the Danube in Novi Sad “.

“Due to the true information of the citizens, the Municipal Board of the Serbian Progressive Party announces the details of the aforementioned plan in a statement, the realization of which will benefit the citizens of Novi Sad and the guests of our city, as well as the state of Serbia.” they say.

In the area of ​​the shipyard, which is a mockery of Serbian Athens, but also only 2 percent of the total area of ​​the General Coastal Regulation Plan, a residential and commercial complex will be built. Within it, tourist and commercial facilities that will be open to visitors, users and tenants. It was connected on one side with the promenade on the embankment, and on the other, with the Fishermen’s Island and Kamenički ada. The 7,200 m2 sports complex would be for public use. In an area of ​​32,000 m2, the promenade and cycle path, with garden area and ground floor “Such a plan makes the area around the current shipyard available to citizens throughout the year and thus contributes to the economic effect of the Kamenicka ada complex,” said the SNS.

The areas under the forest in the Kamenicka ada area will increase from 24 to 38.62 hectares, which represents 61 percent of the entire area covered by the Plan, according to the SNS.

“Particular attention will be paid to the preservation of bird habitats. In Kamenička ada, the construction of a hotel with a congress center, open and closed sports fields, many of which will serve health tourism, is planned. The new rowing track will have 6 + 2 lanes (for training) standard for the major European and world competitions. Marina with a water area, 104,000 square meters “, they affirm.

As they claim, as far as the bank of the Danube is concerned, “it will be determined, and the whole part of the bank will be followed by a walk.”

“In this way, Novi Sad will be ranked among the cities with the most modern coastline. The city that has the most beautiful beach on the Danube deserves something like this, which will pay off many times to citizens, athletes, recreationists, guests of the city and the state, “SNS said.
