Belgrade, 14 October 2026

First Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Finance in a caretaker capacity Siniša Mali visited today works on the "Bele Vode" metro station at the construction site at Makiš Field in Belgrade.

Mali underlined that the state-of-the-art TBM (Tunnel Boring Machine), weighing 1,800 tons and with a diameter of ten meters, which will start excavating a tunnel for the first metro line, is currently at the border and that it will arrive at the Port of Pančevo as soon as water levels are adequate, with assembly scheduled to begin in November.

He stated that the machine is expected to begin operations in late summer 2027.

According to him, the Belgrade Metro will span 70 kilometres across three lines, with the station at Republic Square located at a depth of 40 metres.

The Belgrade Metro will be fully automated and driverless, featuring three lines, a 70-kilometre network, a total of 72 stations, and one hundred state-of-the-art trains.

The three Belgrade Metro lines will connect nine municipalities: Novi Beograd, Zvezdara, Zemun, Vračar, Palilula, Stari Grad, Čukarica, Voždovac and Savski Venac.

The first line will connect Železnik and Mirijevo, the second line is planned for the Mirijevo–Bežanija route, while the third line will run between Bežanija and the BIO4 Campus.
