Jutarnji listIndependentCenterFactual 90Objective 859 days ago Zagrebers greeted: The most anticipated left turn at the intersection in the whole city opensThe article reports on a new traffic infrastructure project in Zagreb, specifically the installation of a traffic light intersection at the junction of Roberta Fargaša Mihanovića Street and Zagrebačka Avenue. The decision was made on June 11th and announced on June 30th, with construction company Bolčević-gradnja selected due to its economically favorable offer of €291,622, compared to Šušković-gradnje’s more expensive bid. The project aims to allow left turns from the north towards the east, enabling an additional 99 vehicles per hour without negatively impacting traffic flow on Zagrebačka Avenue. Work was initially planned for summer 2025 but was delayed until late December 2025. The new traffic lights will include modern equipment such as cameras and sensors, and additional roadworks will remove a green island and part of a divider to create space for a new lane.

Novi listIndependentCenterFactual 85Objective 759 days ago In front of the tenants of the school years of noise and trouble with parkingThe article discusses planned infrastructure construction in Rijeka, Croatia, centered around Školjić Street and its surrounding area. The project, part of the 'Aglomeracija Rijeka' initiative, involves building water management infrastructure, including a large retention basin and rainwater overflow system. These works will take place over nearly a year, starting in mid-July 2024 and ending in April 2025. During this time, significant portions of Školjić Street and parts of the nearby parking lot will be closed, leading to increased traffic congestion and difficulties for local residents who already struggle with finding parking spaces.
