The first heavy rain again brought misfortune to the residents of Miloj Pavlović's side street in Gornja Gorica, Podgorica. Huge puddles created during rainfall make it impossible for both pedestrians and cars to move. The problem of the citizens of this street has been going on for over two decades, announced the Podgorica URA board.
As they said from this party, for years the authorities from the Capital City have not responded to citizens' pleas to resolve this issue.
"Many years of promises by the authorities in the municipality to repair this street have never been fulfilled. To make matters worse, although the Agency for Construction and Development of Podgorica started work on the third phase of the reconstruction of the remaining part of this street up to Nikšić road, which is about 18 m long, on May 1.100 this year, the plan does not mention the reconstruction of the problematic part of this side streets", according to URE.
They remind that this street has been under construction since 2008.
"At that time, about 350 m of the street was reconstructed, from the intersection with Cetinjska Street to the intersection with Vojvođanska Street. In February 2020, the reconstruction of another 430 m of road was completed, from the intersection with Vojvođanska Street to the intersection with Kragujevacka Street. Rehabilitating this part of the street would not require much money or time," the Podgorica URA board points out.
As they note, given that the money for the works goes directly from the citizens' budget, it is incomprehensible and unacceptable that the authorities turn a deaf ear to citizens' pleas and demands for years.
"Hereby, we appeal to the capital city to take into consideration the allegations of the residents of this street as soon as possible and to react quickly in order to solve this problem", concluded the URE from Podgorica.
