Novi Sad is expected to have a new railway stop by Oct. 1, Mayor Žarko Mićin said, as the city's main station remains closed after a canopy collapse.
Mićin told reporters that Serbia's railway infrastructure company should complete construction on Rumenачki put within the next 10 to 15 days. The planned facility will have 150 parking spaces, bicycle parking and a bike path.
The new stop is intended to ease pressure on Petrovaradin, which is currently being used instead of Novi Sad's closed station. The main station has been shut since the canopy fell on Nov. 1, 2024.
Mićin also said railway infrastructure officials had asked a court for permission to allow experts into the station's main hall to inspect its condition. Experts have already requested that the building be reinforced so it can be partially used, but court approval is still pending.
