Urban infrastructure and environmental management in the B-R

Overview

Municipalities in the region are addressing various urban infrastructure and environmental challenges. In Banja Luka, initial reports focused on urban planning concerns, specifically regarding the insufficient width of newly marked parking spaces on Braće Jugovića Street.

Subsequent efforts in Banja Luka have shifted toward environmental protection and air quality. The Communal Police have increased inspections, including nighttime patrols, to prevent the illegal burning of waste such as tires and branches after pollutant concentrations exceeded safety limits.

In Serbia, Belgrade has faced issues with extreme urban heat, where asphalt temperatures in New Belgrade reached 65°C, contributing to a high frequency of tropical nights. Meanwhile, in Kragujevac, authorities are managing waste accumulation issues, urging residents to report bulky waste rather than leaving furniture and appliances in public spaces.
