– This is a unique case of bridge construction not only in Europe but in Serbia too and I'm proud about it. If Belgrade needs anything it's a bypass. When we finish the bridge we will have 27 km of road from Batajnica to Ostruznica, then we will begin works on Ostruznica – Bubanj Potok section and finally after that, after 2022 Belgrade will, with the bypass, have a completed ring road.
