Project Development Objective 1. Project development objective: (see Annex 1) The main project objective is to improve the effectiveness of the policies ofthe Serbian Road Directorate (SRD) for road maintenance and rehabilitation through (i)the introduction ofnew contracting arrangements with the private sector in two pilot districts; and (ii)enhancing the sustainability ofthe use of network analysis in the selection of road rehabilitation segments. 2. Key performance indicators: (see Annex 1) Progress towards the development objective would be monitored according to the following key performance indicators: e Improved maintenance systems in two pilot districts within fixed budget envelopes; e Lower costs and improved quality and safety in road segment rehabilitation projects following competitive procedures; and e Increased capability of SRD to procure road works competitively and objectively supervise their implementation. Monitoring of the proposed indicators will be made in accordance with the baseline and target figures provided under the table in Annex 1. B. Strategic Context 1. Sector-related Country Assistance Strategy (CAS) goal supported by the project: (see Annex 1) Document number: Transitional support Strategy Update 27048-YU Date of latest CAS discussion: August 8, 2002 The Bank's assistance program for FY04 is presented in the Transitional Support Strategy Update, February 18, 2004 (TSS) for Serbia and Montenegro. A new CAS be prepared by the end of 2004. The TSS supports four priority areas for reform: (i)restoring macroeconomic stability and extemal balance; (ii) stimulating near-term growth and creating the basis for a sustainable supply response; (iii)improving the social well-being of the most vulnerable individuals and building human capacity; and (iv) improving govemance and building effective institutions. The proposed project would support the priorities expressed in the TSS, by focusing on the structural agenda in the road transport sector and the institutional building that is its corollary. More specifically, the project would support the second and fourth objectives of the TSS, through: (i)both the rehabilitation of 240 kilometers ofhighway and the introduction of competitive tendering ofwinter and routine maintenance for two regions, Macva and Kolubara; and ii) the development of the capability of the Serbian Road Directorate (SRD) to plan, budget, and monitor road expenditures, and to use road maintenance funding more effectively. These two initiatives will contribute to a reduction in vehicle operating costs and time expenditures in a sustainable manner, and thereby contribute to the continued economic development in the country and the region. The project has also been conceived to complement those projects which are underway, or planned, by other international financing agencies (particularly the EIB and the EBRD) which have, traditionally, provided substantial financial support for road transport infrastructure, but with only -2- limited emphasis on the more difficult issues of public resource management and efficiency issues at the sector level. 2. Main sector issues and Government strategy: The upheaval of the last twelve years, with the different conflicts and their legacies, in the form of economic sanctions and political and economic upheaval, have made a significant contribution to the deterioration of the physical, social and institutional infrastructure within the country. The transport sector, and the physical and institutional infrastructure therein, has been particularly affected, and is currently inadequate to contribute to the recovery of the national economy or facilitate the reintegration of the country into the regional economy. The following are regarded as the most pressing issues in the sector at present: Poor condition of assets: The limited and intermittent funding to the sector since the

  • ROADS of SERBIA” ZORAN DROBNJAK “When You Want to Develop an Area, Equip It with Good Roads”, Prof
    INTRODUCTION ACTING DIRECTOR OF THE PE “ROADS OF SERBIA” ZORAN DROBNJAK “When you want to develop an area, equip it with good roads”, prof. dr Milan Vujanić says and I entirely agree with this. Interdependence of industry and roads is quite evident because roads, in addition to their main function concerning the transport of people and goods, also generate growth and development of all places through which the road network passes as well as all other which are indirectly connected with motorways and other important routes in the Republic of Serbia. Thus it is the main dedication of the PE “Roads of Serbia” to achieve what is expected from us – to successfully finish all investments and provide the same level of quality of all the roads in Serbia with constant increase of the level of traffic safety, with cordial assistance of the Government of the Republic of Serbia and the Ministry of Construction, Transport and Infrastructure. This is an imperative of our work, not only because of the expectations in front of us regarding the accession to the European Union, but also because good roads are one of the pillars of every serious and modern country. Road towards the achievement of big results starts with the devotion of individuals, each one of us. Owing to an exceptional devotion of the employees in the PE “Roads of Serbia”, achievement of the adopted plans is possible, regardless of the difficulties and not always favourable work conditions which the time sets upon us. Daily perseverance, devotion and openness of our employees to new knowledge and changes is obvious.

  • China's Economic Footprint in the Western Balkans
    Jacob Mardell ASIA POLICY BRIEF China's Economic Footprint in the Western Balkans Geopolitics has returned to vogue, and the EU does not enjoy a monopoly on inuence in the Western Balkans. China is the latest player on the scene, and although its economic footprint is still relatively small, Beijing’s growing presence is a new reality that Brussels needs to contend with. China’s “no-strings attached” nancing of infrastructure potentially undermines the EU’s reform-orientated approach. Relevance Bertelsmann Stiftung Focus Bertelsmann Stiftung Forecast Bertelsmann Stiftung Information Bertelsmann Stiftung Options Bertelsmann Stiftung About the author Jacob Mardell is a freelance researcher and journalist who has recently travelled Eurasia exploring China’s Belt and Road Initiative. He is writing a series of articles, "On the New Silk Road,". Since March, he has traveled overland from the UK to Beijing. Over the next ve months he will be travelling in Southeast Asia, returning to Europe over sea, via Djibouti and Ethiopia. Beijing’s approach China’s economic presence in the Western Balkans Six (WB6) countries of Albania, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Kosovo, Montenegro, North Macedonia, and Serbia is framed in terms of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), a foreign policy slogan and development concept announced by Xi Jinping in 2013. Although China maintained active diplomatic relations with Yugoslavia during the 1980s and 1990s and vocally opposed the NATO bombing of Serbia and Montenegro in the late 1990s, economic outreach in the countries of former Yugoslavia only truly began (with Serbia) in the second decade of the 21st Century. Beijing’s relationship with Albania – not part of former Yugoslavia – was very close until the Sino-Albanian split of the 1970s, but this historical curiosity has little bearing on contemporary Sino-Albanian relations.

EU has defined its priority axes that run parallel with Corridor 10 in Serbia. The neighbouring countries construct speedily the infrastructure network in the close vicinity. 2. Road transit transport on Corridor 10 has stagnated, and an increasing trend is recorded only on the directions east-west and northeast-southwest. Network Traffic Load and Regional Traffic Flows The largest traffic load is on the passage through Belgrade, which is why construction of Belgrade Bypass is one of the priorities. Regional traffic flows through Serbia include both transit flows and Serbia’s bilateral exchange; they are most expressed on the east-west direction.

Ivo Andric . HIGHLIGHTS: New Beška Bridge is opened to traffic Зоран Стојисављевић, B.Sc. (C.E.) „Bigger investments – better roads” Gazela Bridge Rehabilitation Environmental Protection Lower tolls for vans Acknowledgement of the Tradition Preservation Huge Construction Undertaking On the occasion of works completion and opening to traffic the new bridge on the Danube at Beška, the Director General of the PE “Roads of Serbia”, Zoran Drobnjak, emphasizes: “I am proud that we have built one of the biggest and longest bridges in Europe. Even though we had big problems during construction because of the landslide occurrence on the right bank of the Danube and its remedy, we managed to build new bridge that is only five meters away from the existing one. Realization of these works is huge construction undertaking that requires great skills of everyone included in the construction of twin bridges over Beška. I congratulate everyone that contributed to the construction of this grand structure, which will be of use to the future generations and shall be in operation for the next 125 years”. Gazela Bridge Rehabilitation Works on the Gazela Bridge are in their final phase, which implies the bridge reconstruction on the main traffic route towards Novi Beograd. The works on pavement of the upstream side of the bridge were finished in the last three months in Šid- Niš direction and one half of the bridge was opened to traffic in its full width on July 18th.

  • The Future of the Auto World in the COVID Era
    INTERNATIONAL SCIENTIFIC JOURNAL "TRANS & MOTAUTO WORLD" WEB ISSN 2534-8493; PRINT ISSN 2367-8399 The future of the auto world in the COVID era Nataša Tomić- Petrović University of Belgrade, Serbia Abstract: The eco car of the year 2020 was the “Corolla HB” 1.8 HSD. The French made the original car, after the new "Peugeot 208", the base is the same as in the model "2008", which is 25 cm longer, the wheelbase is 2.6 meters and it is dominated by power. Its maximum speed is 198 kilometers/h. No one can compare to the French "lion". "Mercedes" announced that Formula 1 drivers will drive completely black cars instead of the "silver arrow" in the upcoming season, thus promising the fight against racism and increasing diversity in their champion team. The auditing company "Deloitte" claims that the automobile industry in the world is about to collapse due to the consequences of the Corona virus pandemic. The Covid-19 pandemic is not subsiding, now Mexico and the Brazil are the most endangered. During the epidemic in Serbia in April this year, the production of motor vehicles and trailers decreased by 84%, and in Kragujevac based "Fiat" was faced not only with a lack of demand, but also with a lack of parts for production. During the state of emergency, truckers w ere particularly endangered and suffered heavy losses. Losses in the passenger domestic and international bus traffic were then estimated at 2 8 million euros. Despite the pandemic that reigns, "Renault" has confirmed its leading position on the European electric car market.
