Banja Luka sidewalk parking safety concerns

Overview

In Banja Luka, parents have raised concerns regarding persistent illegal sidewalk parking on Hajduk Veljka Street, an area used by children walking to school. Residents report that despite assurances from the City Administration that communal police conduct daily inspections and issue fines, the issue has continued for nearly a year, forcing children to walk in the roadway.

In response to the ongoing obstruction, community members are calling for permanent infrastructure solutions rather than just individual fines. Their demands include the installation of protective bollards, improved pedestrian crossings, traffic calming measures, and increased surveillance during school commute hours.
