Railway bridge near Ostružnica to be put into operation tomorrow

Rehabilitated railway bridge across the Sava near Ostružnica, torn down during NATO bombing seven years ago, will be officially put into operation tomorrow (September 15, 2006) on the Day of Serbian Railways.

The Government of Serbia and Serbian Railways invested over 3m EUR in rehabilitation of the 658-meter-long bridge near Ostružnica.

By putting into operation the bridge near Ostružnica, the traffic on the Belgrade railway junction will be reduced, the transit of international trains through the capital will be cut by 2-4 hour and the dangerous matters will be never again transported through the central city zones.
