BELGRADE - Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic announced on Wednesday a New Belgrade-Surcin motorway section would be opened to traffic on March 31.

Once it is completed, it will provide the shortest traffic route to the Milos the Great Motorway and Cacak will be just an hour's drive away from Belgrade, Vucic said after a tour of the construction site of the Surcin 1 interchange.

As Dragijana Radonjic Petrovic, Vice President of Serbian Association of Economists said, this is one of the most important topics for the country, while investing in infrastructure has produced good results in the last year.

A modern road will connect Belgrade and Cacak more strongly, and according to the authorities, it will save time. Instead of two hours, we will have 60-minute ride.
Travelling on the section of the Surcin-Obrenovac highway will be free of charge.
