President of Serbia Aleksandar Vu\u010di\u0107 is attending today\u2019s opening of the high-speed railway Belgrade – Subotica. He will ride the Soko train from Belgrade to Subotica.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After two weeks of testing, the third section of the high-speed railway Belgrade \u2013 Subotica, from Novi Sad to Subotica, is being opened.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI believe this is a great success for Serbia,\u201d said Vu\u010di\u0107 in the carriage of the high-speed train to Subotica.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cFor Serbia, it is not only important to build high-speed railways, but also regular ones. That is why we are now trying to find money to construct and reconstruct the railways between Pan\u010devo, Opovo, Zrenjanin, Kikinda, Subotica, Sombor, and connect them again with Vrbas,\u201d Vu\u010di\u0107 added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Construction of this section began in November 2021, and the railway, about 108.1 kilometers long, will allow trains to reach speeds of up to 200 kilometers per hour. On the route of the Novi Sad \u2013 Subotica high-speed railway, four bridges and two viaducts (with a total length of 2.3 km), 27 overpasses (3.9 km), and 15 underpasses (32.3 km) were built, among other infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the first time in Serbia, three ecoducts were constructed, each 46 meters long, enabling animals to cross the railway safely, on the sections Lov\u0107enac \u2013 Ba\u010dka Topola, Ba\u010dka Topola \u2013 \u017dednik, and Subotica \u2013 state border. A total of 33 culverts were also built, about 800 meters long in total, as well as 14 pedestrian underpasses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the new railway, 302 switches were installed, while construction required about eight and a half million cubic meters of earthworks and 762 thousand cubic meters of crushed stone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The construction of the high-speed railway with speeds up to 200 km\/h between Belgrade and Budapest is one of the largest and most significant investment and infrastructure projects in this part of Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Along the entire Belgrade\u2013Novi Sad\u2013Subotica high-speed railway, 16 stations, three stops, and six stations with railway facilities were built or reconstructed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is planned that the Soko train between Novi Sad and Subotica will travel in 41 minutes, while the journey between Belgrade and Subotica will take about 79 minutes, and inter-regio trains will take 54 minutes from Novi Sad to Subotica and about 99 minutes from Belgrade to Subotica.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The contractor was the Chinese consortium \u201cChina Railway International\u201d and \u201cChina Communications Construction Company,\u201d and the project involved more than two hundred subcontractors and suppliers, mostly from Serbia, but also a large number from EU countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The section of the Belgrade\u2013Budapest high-speed railway, on the route from Novi Sad to Subotica, has been put into operation. The train from Belgrade to Subotica departed at 11:30, and among the passengers is Vu\u010di\u0107.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A correspondent of the Beta agency reported that in front of the Railway Station building in Subotica there is a podium and a large number of police officers, as well as several hundred citizens with national flags.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
