Residents of the local communities of Krtoli and Krašići from the Municipality of Tivat and Municipal Municipality of Luštica on the territory of the Municipality of Herceg Novi are absolutely opposed to the planned corridors of the Adriatic-Ionian Expressway and the Adriatic-Ionian Gas Pipeline, which are outlined in the Spatial Plan for Special Purposes for the Coastal Area of ​​Montenegro and which cross the territory municipality of Tivat and part of the territory of the municipality of Herceg Novi, on the Luštica peninsula.

This was concluded, among other things, last night at the assembly of citizens of the three local communities, which was held in the House of Culture "Uroš Rautović" in Radovići.

The rally was organized by these three local communities, the NGO Matica Boke - Tivat branch and the Krtoljska lista voter group.

After a two-hour discussion, it was unanimously concluded that the residents of Krtol, Krašić and Luštica Municipality believe that the corridors of the future Adriatic-Ionian road and the gas pipeline that should pass through Luštica towards Croatia have a large negative impact on people and the environment, as well as have a very negative impact on the general development of this area.

Therefore, the locals unanimously request that the corridors drawn in this way be removed from the Draft Spatial Plan of Montenegro as an umbrella planning document in Montenegro, as well as from the Spatial-Urban Plans of the municipalities of Tivat and Herceg Novi.

Also, it was requested that "when harmonizing the Special Purpose Spatial Plan for the Coastal Area with the Spatial Plan of Montenegro, the disputed corridors be removed from the Special Purpose Spatial Plan for the Coastal Area".

Locals and their views were supported by the management of the Municipality of Tivat and what was conveyed to them at the assembly of citizens in Krtoli last night by the Vice President of the Municipality Jovan Brinić (Krtoljska Lista) as well as the municipal secretary for spatial arrangement Milica Manojlović.

The assembly was also attended by the President of the Tivat Municipality Assembly, Miljan Marković (DF), as well as the secretary of the Secretariat for Inspection Supervision, Jelena Šćekić (NP).
