The Secretariat for Environmental Protection has announced a public procurement for the update of Belgrade's acoustic zones, which determine the amount of noise allowed in individual parts of the city, writes New economy.
The previous zoning was done at the end of 2021, but now the zones need to be adjusted to the construction plans - which have been adopted in the meantime or which will be adopted in the future.
The estimated value of the tender is 22,5 million dinars (192.000 euros). On that amount, the city administration should sign a framework agreement for three years on the basis of which it would enter into contracts on updating the acoustic zones, when there is a need for it. In such cases, contracts are signed until the funds are spent.
New update
The decision on the designation of acoustic zones on the territory of Belgrade was made by the City Assembly in December 2021, according to the Secretariat for Environmental Protection for the New Economy.
Acoustic zones were then designated in the capital and have not been updated since then.
"Consequently, it is necessary to update the Acoustic Zones of Belgrade, in order to harmonize them with the changes and additions in the valid spatial and urban plans," the written response reads.
It is added that the update will be carried out in accordance with all plans of detailed regulation "which have changed the purpose given by the plan of general regulation from the date of adoption of the acoustic zones until now, and in the future".
The answer does not specify what all the changes are that will be introduced in the new map of acoustic zones.
What will make everything red?
However, a map of acoustic zones has been posted on the City's website with review options - "acoustic zones - existing" and "acoustic zones - planned".
By comparing the existing and planned acoustic zones, it is noticed that there are more red colors on the planned map (zones with the highest permitted noise threshold) and that some zones that were blue and green zones until now are planned to become red (for example, the area around the Palace of Serbia on New Belgrade).
It is also planned to expand zones with a high noise threshold around roads.
The red zones mark the "city center, craft, trade, administrative and administrative zone with apartments, the zone along highways, highways and city roads." In this zone, noise up to 65 decibels (dB) is allowed during the day, and up to 55 dB at night.
The blue zone is for business-residential and commercial-residential areas and children's playgrounds. In them, noise is allowed up to 60 dB during the day, and up to 50 dB at night.
