Podgorica is undertaking several major infrastructure and urban development projects. Construction has commenced on a new bridge over the Morača river, a project valued at approximately seven million euros expected to take 550 days. Following its completion, the existing bridge will be reconstructed to alleviate traffic congestion.

Additionally, officials have completed asphalt paving on a 6.5-kilometer road connecting Mokra to Širokar to support local agriculture and tourism. Regarding urban expansion, Mayor Saša Mujović has designated the Velje brdo area for future residential development, emphasizing a focus on low-rise buildings and increased green spaces.
