The City of Kragujevac will get EUR 810,460 from the EU Support Program for Municipal Development - EU PRO for the realization of three projects worth a total of EUR 972,711. The Program is carried out by the United Nations Office for Project Services (UNOPS) in cooperation with the Ministry of European Integration and the competent ministries and institutions of the Government of the Republic of Serbia. The European Union had set aside EUR 25 million for this three-year program, which began in January 2018, as reported on the official website of the City of Kragujevac.

The first contract on the realization of the project of the construction of outdoor sports courts at the Grand Park within the support of the development of local infrastructure will be signed by October 19. The project is worth EUR 174,935. EU PRO participates with 147,226, and the city with EUR 27,709. The project entails the reconstruction of outdoor sports courts in the Grand Park, including the pedestrian zone, a basketball court, stands, an entrance gate, a fence, a storm drain system, as well as the procurement of adequate equipment. This will contribute to the improvement of conditions for numerous sports clubs, local populace, and especially pupils and students in primary and secondary schools.

As part of the support to the enhancement of business infrastructure, the project of revitalization and expansion of the location in the old industrial zone has been approved. It entails the construction of utility infrastructure and traffic routes which should connect old and new locations in the zone 22. decembar and Rakalj, which will be of great importance for the current and potential investors. Furthermore, residents of the Ilina Voda settlement will be connected to the new water supply system. The value of the project is EUR 756,660. EU PRO participates with 633,234, and the local self-government with EUR 126,426.


The third project pertains to the preparation of the technical documentation for the repair of the bridge on the river Lepenica near Sest Topola. EU PRO will provide EUR 30,000, and the City of Kragujevac EUR 8,116. Once the technical documentation is prepared, conditions will be created for its reconstruction, which will enable free traffic, both for the users of the industrial zone and their suppliers, as well as for pedestrians.

Furthermore, SWISS PRO – the program of support of the Swiss government meant for the development of municipalities through the upgrade of good management and social inclusion, has approved the technical support for two projects of the City of Kragujevac – support to the development of civil society and local partnerships for the employment of the young.
