  • A burst main water pipeline has cut off supply to 14 villages in the Gornji Milanovac area.
  • The affected villages include Brezna, Beršići, Loznja, Ozrem, and Takovo, among others.
  • Water supply is expected to return to normal by the following day, with previous restrictions having been in place due to low water levels.

Water supply has been cut off for 14 villages near Gornji Milanovac following a burst in the main pipeline, according to the local public utility company (JKP).

The villages affected by the disruption include Brezna, Beršići, parts of Loznja, Ozrem, Ločevac, Takovo, Donji Branetići, Ljevaj, Vrnčani, Klatičevo, parts of Ljutovnica, Semedraž, Šarani, and Savinac.

The public utility company anticipates that water supply will be normalized by the end of tomorrow. This incident follows a previous rupture of the same main pipeline 15 days ago, which left nine villages without water for several days.

Earlier this month, Gornji Milanovac implemented water restrictions, with consumers facing 12-hour daily outages in groups. These restrictions were imposed due to critically low water levels in the Rzav River, the primary source of water for Gornji Milanovac and four other towns.

Normalization of water supply is expected during the course of tomorrow.
