Roads in Serbia are the backbone of its transportation system and constitute important transit roads in Europe. They are categorized as: state highways, class I; state highways, class II; local roads; municipal roads.[1] Total length of public roads in Serbia is 40,845 km, of which 5,525 km are state highways, class I (including 643 km of motorways and expressways); 11,540 km are state highways, class II, and 23,780 km are local roads.[2]
Motorways and expressways
Motorways ([Аутопут, Autoput] Error: {{Lang-xx}}: text has italic markup (help)) and expressways (Serbian: Брзи пут, ′′Brzi put′′) are the backbone of the road system in Serbia. There are 643 km of motorways and expressways.
Motorways in Serbia have three lanes (including emergency lane) in each direction, signs are white-on-green, as in the rest of former Yugoslavia and the normal speed limit is 120 km/h.
Expressways, unlike motorways, don't have emergency lanes, signs are white-on-blue and the normal speed limit is 100 km/h.
Because the Serbian word for motorway is "autoput", the "A1", "A2" or "A3" road designations are used since November 2013.[3] All state roads, categorized as class I, that will be replaced with motorways in future, or that are already motorways, are marked with one-digit numbers and known as class Ia. All other roads, which belong to class I, are marked with two-digit numbers and known as class Ib. Expressways belong to class Ib, too. E-numeration is also widely used on motorways.
This is the list of roads in Serbia that are or will be motorways in future. ″Motorway length″ represents length of road that is already replaced with motorway.
| Road designation | Route | Road length | Motorway length |
|---|---|---|---|
| A1 | Border of Hungary near Horgoš - Novi Sad - Belgrade - Niš - Border of Macedonia near Preševo | 584 km | 505 km |
| A2 | Belgrade - Ljig - Preljina (intersection with state highway 4) | 132 km | - |
| A3 | Border of Croatia near Batrovci - Belgrade (intersection with state highway A1) | 94 km | 94 km |
| A4 | Niš (intersection with state highway 1) - Pirot - Dimitrovgrad - Border of Bulgaria near Gradina | 109 km | 19 km |
| A5 | Čačak - Kraljevo - Kruševac - Pojate (intersection with state highway A1) | 112 km | - |
| Total: | 620 km |
Expansion
Since 1991, motorways have been under constant expansion in Serbia. Current themes of expansion include the Pan-European Corridor X, and the proposed Corridor XI.[citation needed]
Yearly expansion figures:[4]
- 2004 – 33 km
- 2005 – 22.5 km
- 2006 – 33,22 km
- 2008 – 7.7 km
- 2009 – 40.55 km
- 2010 – 110 km[5]
- 2011 – 180 km
As of October 2011, the northern part of Corridor X (Belgrade to Horgoš) is completed. Its sections were opened at the following dates:[6]
- km 0 to km 28 – Horgoš to Bikovo – opened on 17 July 2011
- km 28 to km 38 – Bikovo to Žednik – opened in 2009
- km 38 to km 50 – Žednik to Bačka Topola – opened 20 July 2011
- km 50 to km 71 – Bačka Topola to Feketić – opened on 10 August 2011
- km 71 to km 80 – Feketić to ? – opened on 20 August 2011
- km 80 to km 85 – ? to Srbobran – opened on 30 August 2011
- km 85 to km 98 – Srbobran – Sirig – opened on 1 August 2011
- km 98 to km 108 – Sirig – Novi Sad – opened in 2009
The Beška dual-carriage bridge has also been completed, with the reconstruction of the old bridge currently underway. Construction is also underway in the southern part of Corridor X (from Niš to the Bulgarian border), as well as from Leskovac to the Macedonian border. The government previously estimated that Serbia's portions of Corridor X would be completed by the end of 2013, but now 2016 is a more realistic target date.
Construction also continues on the proposed Corridor XI.[clarification needed] Currently, there are a 12 km stretch between Ub and Lajkovac and a 40 km stretch between Ljig and Preljina under construction, and plans for the construction along the Sava river have been approved on 5 October 2011.
State highways
New classification of state highways in Serbia entered into force in 2012. Since 2012, they are categorized as state highways, class Ia; state highways, class Ib and state highways, class II. Until 2012, Yugoslav classification was in use.
State highways, class Ia
Roads that are motorways or will be replaced with motorways in future are categorized as state highways, class Ia. They are marked with one-digit numbers.
| Road | Route |
|---|---|
| 1 | Border of Hungary near Horgoš - Novi Sad - Belgrade - Niš - Border of Macedonia near Preševo |
| 2 | Belgrade - Ljig - Preljina (intersection with state highway 4) |
| 3 | Border of Croatia near Batrovci - Belgrade - Pančevo - Vršac - Border of Romania near Vatin |
| 4 | Border of Bosnia and Herzegovina near Kotroman - Užice - Čačak - Kraljevo - Kruševac - Pojate (intersection with state highway 1) |
| 5 | Niš (intersection with state highway 1) - Pirot - Dimitrovgrad - Border of Bulgaria near Gradina |
| 6 | Užice (intersection with state highway 4) - Border of Montenegro near Gostun (motorway will have completely different route: Požega (intersection with state highway 4) - Ivanjica - Border of Montenegro near Boljare) |
State highways, class Ib
Major roads that won't be replaced with motorways in future are categorized as state highways, class Ib. Some of these roads are partially expressways. They are marked with two-digit numbers.
State highways, class II
State highways, class II, are marked with three-digit numbers.
European routes
The following European routes pass through Serbia:
E65: Rožaje, Montenegro – Tutin – Kosovska Mitrovica – Priština – Đeneral Janković – Skopje, Macedonia.
E70: Slavonski Brod, Croatia – Šid – Belgrade – Vršac – Timişoara, Romania.
E75: Szeged, Hungary – Subotica – Novi Sad – Beška Bridge – Belgrade – Niš – Leskovac – Grdelica – Vranje – Preševo – Kumanovo, Macedonia.
E80: Rožaje, Montenegro – Peć – Priština – Prokuplje – Niš – Niška Banja – Pirot – Dimitrovgrad – Sofia, Bulgaria.
- section from E75 near Niš to Niška Banja is built to motorway standards.
E662: Subotica – Sombor – Bezdan – Osijek, Croatia.
E761: Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina – Užice – Čačak – Kraljevo – Kruševac – Pojate – Paraćin – Zaječar.
E763: Belgrade – Čačak – Nova Varoš – Bijelo Polje, Montenegro.
