Engineer Slaven Šestović is the new executive director of the Railway Transport of Montenegro (ŽPCG), and Milorad Lukić is the new acting executive director of the Maintenance of Railway Rolling Stock of Montenegro (OŽVS), "News" confirmed.
The previous director of ŽPCG, Nenad Babić, was dismissed on Monday, and today the long-term director of OŽVS, Milorad Vuković, father of the mayor of Podgorica, Ivan Vuković, who as a party member covered that position for three terms since 2011, was also dismissed.
The decision to dismiss Vuković has already been announced on the company's notice board, and as of Monday, when the handover of duties is scheduled, he will be replaced as deputy executive director of OŽVS by Lukić, until now director of the Train Traction Sector in Montecargo. The new incumbent is an experienced electrical engineer, in the once unique Montenegrin railway, who spent most of his working life in responsible functions of rolling stock maintenance.
The changes in the railway companies came about after a series of meetings this week that the representatives of the Ministry of Capital Investments (MKI) had with the newly elected members of the board of directors of the company, which were led by the State Secretary for Transport Zoran Radunović and Acting Director of the Directorate for Railway Traffic in the Ministry of Transport Dragana Lukšić .
"The presidents of the board of directors and the executive directors of four railway companies were instructed by the MKI to organize a joint meeting of the board presidents and executive directors once a week, at which they would exchange all necessary information, harmonize positions and operational activities on all undoubtedly joint activities, problems and unresolved debt- creditor relations. We hope that the most agreeable persons in railway companies will function uniquely in the general interest of passengers, the public and the employees of those companies," Radunović told "Vijesta".
The director of the Railway Traffic Directorate, Dragana Lukšić, scheduled the first meeting of the president of the board of directors and executive directors for next Thursday.
The competition for the selection of a new director of the railway company for the transportation of goods Montecargo has already been announced, while the same competition is expected in the Railway Infrastructure at the beginning of next week.
