The City of Skopje has initiated several urban infrastructure and revitalization projects. 

Work has commenced on the paving of Boris Trajkovski Boulevard, a high-traffic thoroughfare that has faced a thirty-year delay due to expropriation issues. The project includes the installation of a new storm sewer system to ensure drainage and stability. 

Simultaneously, the city has launched a renovation and sanitation project for the Vardar River pedestrian zone, spanning from Novo Lisice to Valae. This initiative involves repairing damaged tiles, leveling surfaces, and cleaning the Vardar Riverbed to restore the riverfront as a functional public space.
