The bridge on the Southwest bypass connects the banks of Morača: Podgorica will soon get another recognizable city symbol

The span structure on the bridge within the Southwest bypass that connects Petrovački and Cetinjski highways was completed by pushing the fifth segment, which took the construction of the bridge with a total length of 150 meters to the projected position. With the completion of these works, the banks of the river Morača at this place are connected by the construction of the bridge, and preparatory works are already underway on the construction of the pylon, as well as the installation of steel oblique cables and access to the bridge.  The length of the pylon is 31 meters, and 7 steel cables will be installed that support the construction of the bridge.

The bridge will be equipped with electrical and plumbing installations, as well as decorative lighting, because these types of bridges are designed as a unique symbol in space, both during the day and at night.

We remind you that the Southwest bypass is a boulevard-type road with a bridge, almost 3.5 km long, worth over EUR 15 million. Funds for its realization were provided thanks to the long-term cooperation between the Capital and the International Finance Corporation. Works on this project are performed by the company Bemax, which certainly justifies the reputation of quality and timeliness. Also, in addition to the undoubted traffic importance of this road, its much greater importance is reflected in the future functioning of the Wastewater Treatment System. On this road, that is, below it, there is a junction of primary collectors that will drain wastewater to future plants that will be built in the immediate vicinity.
