Beovoz (Беовоз) is the suburban/commuter railway network that provides mass-transit service in the city of Belgrade, Serbia, similar to Paris's RER and Toronto's GO Transit. The main usage of today's system is to connect the suburbs with downtown Belgrade. Beovoz is operated by Serbian Railways.
[edit] Lines and stations
- Further information: List of Belgrade metro stations
There are four lines in the Belgrade underground railway network:
- Nova Pazova – Pančevo
- Pančevo – Resnik
- Resnik – Nova Pazova
- Lajkovac – Zemun – Pančevo
Most stations are not underground, though. The four stations that are built underground are located in the city center.
[edit] Future developments
Construction work on a light-rail system in the city is scheduled to commence in 2008 and it would probably last at least seven years [1]. The sum approved by the city government for the beginning of the works is said to be about $450,000,000. The new line should connect Zemun on the north-west and Konjarnik on the south-east of the city central zone.
