2 Background information
2.1
Location (geography)
Smederevo is positioned at 40.39° northern latitude and 20.57° eastern longitude. It is
located in the northeast part of the Republic of Serbia, on the second largest European
river Danube. It is only 46 kilometers far from the capital, Belgrade.
Main potential of the City of Smederevo is its very characteristic micro position, that
is, exceptionally favorable geographic location between two European corridors – the land
one X – the highway, and the water one – VII – the Danube. This advantage should be
exploited to the maximum from the local viewpoint.
The City of Smederevo occupies mildly ruffled lowland of the southern edge of
Pannonian Basin in the furthest northeast part of Šumadija. The territory of the City of
Smederevo belongs to the Danube Basin and to the lower Morava River Basin. It spreads
immediately before the confluence of Great Morava and the Danube, whereas by its major
part it belongs (in hydrographic sense) to the Great Morava Basin.
The total surface area of the City of Smederevo is 484 km².
The most important, and exceptionally favorable natural advantage of Smederevo in
comparison to other neighboring cities but also with others in Danube Region is actually
the strategically most convenient geographical – traffic location since it possesses the
Str. 7
northernmost port which can host the Black Sea ships. Downstream from Smederevo,
there is the bridge of Kovin which is the last connection with the left bank of the river
Danube before the Hydroelectric Power Plant “Đerdap 1” .
According to the Spatial Plan of the Republic of Serbia adopted in 1996, Smederevo
is a regional center and is located at the meeting place of two priority belts planned for
intensive development (Sava-Danube and Danube-Great Morava), and there is a plan to
profile it as a river port and as a multimodal traffic hub.

2.5 History, tradition and cultural heritage
The name of Smederevo was first recorded in the Charter of
the Byzantine Emperor Vasilije II from 1019, in the part related to the
Eparchy of Braničevo in Ohrid Bishopry. Another written record is
found in the Charter of the Duke Lazar from 1381 by which he
bestowed the Monastery of Ravanica and villages and properties ’to
the Great Bogosav with the commune and heritage’’.
The City of Smederevo is located along the direction of Roman
border (Limes) and the Road of Constantinople which through the
past significantly defined its importance and role in historical events.
As such, this place has the continuity from pre-history, through the
Greek and Roman period and Middle Ages until modern times.
There are several sites in and around the City to witness the rich
cultural heritage of the Smederevo region.
Smederevo gained particular importance at the beginning of the 15th century, during
the reign of Despot Đurađ Branković, when it became the last capital of Serbian medieval
state and the center of religious and economic life. The Smederevo Fortress was built and
its walls still stand today to witness the dynamic past of the city but also the importance of
Smederevo who had at that time already overcome local and regional dimension.
Smederevo became the center at the crossroad of civilizations where the influences of the
East and the West intertwined.
The Fortress is located on the right bank of the river Danube, at the confluence of
the river Jezava anther Danube. The inner space occupies 11 ha and its wider surrounding
meets urban structures. It was built after the model of the Fortress of Constantinople, as a
defense fortification and represents one of the largest fortresses in Europe.
After its fall in Turkish hands, Smederevo maintained its wide regional importance
as a center of “sandžak” until 1521. During 16th and 17th century it developed into an
oriental town. By the end of the 17th century, during Austrian-Turkish wars, the town went
from the hands of one warring party to another. It was devastated and economically
declined. During Austrian rule, Smederevo was the center of the district.
Str. 12
In the restored Serbian state, Smederevo had a major role, first of all as a Soviet
center from 1805-1807, but also as a developed urban settlement, trade center and the
capital of Smederevo “nahija”.
During the whole of the 19th and the 20th century, it had its place among the most
developed towns of Serbia using its potentials sometimes more, sometimes less.
We will not specify here each and every resource, value, cultural and historical
heritage and spiritual offer of Smederevo, but will support the general understanding and
conclusion that Smederevo represents the center of Serbian culture which gives it a
spiritual and cultural importance which rather overcomes the local and regional dimension.
Cultural heritage and spiritual significance of Smederevo should be the subject of
attention and synchronized revalorization and active inclusion of this area into the flows of
spatial, economical and cultural integrations.

3 Natural resources
3.1 Relief
Its location on the bank of the Danube with considerable area with light slopes
means that the relief of the City of Smederevo does not represent the limiting factor of
space utilization. The exceptions are unstable terrains on the Danube bank and the ones
with erosions.
The best geomorphological conditions for the development of industry, agriculture
and settlement are on the alluvial planes of large rivers, on their mild valley sides and on
tops of elevated areas between river valleys. The City territory is clearly divided to the
rivers Great Morava and Ralja valley bottoms and lower flow of the Konjska River and
higher area in the central and western part of the City of Smederevo.
3.2 Hydrography
The main hydrographic characteristic of the City of Smederevo is the presence of
two major rivers, the Danube and Great Morava. The flow of the Danube is 20 km long
creating thus the northern City border, while Great Morava is the eastern border.
Hydrographically, the major part of the City territory belongs to Great Morava basin. In the
alluvial planes of Morava and Danube, there is enough water, but the most serious problem
is its quality, not quantity. The Danube has the flow of 5490 m³/s, and Great Morava 260
m³/s.
Danube and Great Morava
Great Morava confluence with the Danube
3.3 Lend
The City of Smederevo covers 48,400 ha. The land of better quality can be found on
the higher and porous terrains along the bottom of the valley of the Great Morava valley
and on the lower and flatter terrains of Šumadija hills. Lower quality land lies closer to
Str. 14
Great Morava and on the terrains with larger inclines in the western part of the City. It can
be concluded that the area of the City of Smederevo belongs to the most fertile ones in
Serbia. The best quality land of the first and second class makes 15.8% out of the total
area, the third and the fourth makes 64.3% of the land, that is, two thirds of the territory of
the City of Smederevo is an exceptionally valuable agrarian potential.
Natural resources of Smederevo are convenient for agriculture and comprise
78.78% of the surface area which is above average for the Republic of Serbia.

3.4 Mineral potentials
Considerable accumulations of young sediments create worth development
potential. Regarding mineral raw material, there are confirmed deposits of low caloric
coal, clay, gravel and sand. In surface layers, there are substantial reserves of gravel, sand
and clay and they represent one of the largest deposits in this part of Serbia. On higher
hilly terrains of Šumadija, there are also reserves of building stone.
3.5 Forest potential
Woods occupy 3,6% of the total territory , which is much lower in comparison with
republic (22%), or regional value. Total area under woods and woodland is 1.700 ha.
Woods in private property occupy 1.190 ha. Woods on the territory of the City of
Smederevo belong to the area of wide-spread wood with different types of oak.

4.13 Migration of population
For many years, Smederevo has been under the impact of migratory movements of
people moving in from different parts of the country. The latest figures show that 49.6% of
the population lives on the City territory moved in, which means that only slightly more than
half is autochthonous population.

which certainly include psychological and moral motives.

6.2 Industry
6.2.1 Branches
Diversified structure of industry branches in Smederevo is illustrated in the available
data on production activities within 9 sub-sectors of the processing industry (out of 14 in
total), i.e. 12 production branches. According to spatial, technological and economic
performances, the steel plant US Steel is certainly positioned as both a dominant and
recognizable brand of the area and a primary factor of Smederevo’s spatial and functional
structures.
United States Steel Corporation bought the insolvent Sartid a.d. on 12th
September 2003. The purchase included the steel plant in Smederevo, sector Port on the
Danube River and the plant for tinplates in Sabac as well as other four subsidiary
companies in Smederevo: the Industrial Business Zone, Stara Zelezara (Old Steel Plant)
and SPIN; and a limestone mine and processing operation in Kucevo.
U. S. Steel Serbia, with operations and branches in Smederevo, Sabac and Kucevo,
manufactures and sells hot and cold rolled sheet products as well as tin mill products
shaped as coils and sheets.
In 2005, The Company U. S. Steel Serbia was awarded by the agency SIEPA
for being the best exporter from Serbia for 2005. The position of the best exporter
was retained for 2006 and 2007.
Company Messer Tehnogas received the highest plaudits for the fifth time in a row
as „The best Foreign Corporation Brand in Serbia for business activities in 2009” on 22nd
December 2009 in the Chamber of Commerce of Serbia, which is indicative of success and
established market brand after 12 years in Serbia and 111 years of Messer existence.
Since 1997 it has been in business within German Messer as majority shareholder,
the family business with the tradition in gas production of over 1000 years.
Messer Tehnogas AD is a leading company in the production of industrial, medical
and special gases as well as accompanying industrial and medical equipment in the
territory of Serbia with the annual turnover of over 48 million euros. The company
possesses modern facilities and sections in 8 cities, out of which the main ones are located
in Smederevo and Nis and represent important sources of products for the Balkans region.
Str. 36
Messer Tehnogas AD supplies over 4000 buyers in the country and abroad. Over
400.000 tons of products are launched into the market per year.
Factory of Railroad Cars “ŽELVOZ” Smederevo was founded in 1916. As a
Limited Liability Company it was a part of Public Railroad Transport "Belgrade” with 100%
of capital up to June 2005 and since then it is owned by the Republic of Serbia. On the
basis of public tender held on 20th December 2007 the company was privatized by the
Consortium of „SC Remar Grampet“(Romania). The contract was terminated in May 2011.
Since June 2011, Želvoz is in the process of restructuring.
The core activity of the factory is production, investment and current maintenance of
the passenger, freight and special cars, production of spare parts for railroad cars.
Available production capacities enable the following production programmes:
-
Maintenance of the passenger cars,
Maintenance of the freight cars,
Investment and current maintenance of electric trains,
Rrepairing axle structures,
Completing axle structures,
Production of spare parts
The company is mostly oriented to the domestic market with the increasing
presence in regional and foreign markets since the privatization. The company employs
about 1.400 workers.
As far as potential developers is concerned, Smederevo industry is characterized
by propulsive industrial production – steel and iron plant, machine production, domestic
appliances and traffic devices production all of which are linked to the great number of
other industrial and economic activities. The stationary industry sector is also present, i.e.
Str. 37
traditional industry branches ( wood processing industry, textile and food industries)
whereas the least present is assisting sector like brick and clay production, quarry
extraction and similar.
At the same time, capital-intensive branches are widely present ( mostly basic raw
material sectors- steel and iron production, metal casting and a little less processing
sectors – machine production and similar ), whereas to a lesser degree, there are
traditional, work-intensive and science-intensive industry branches.
6.2.2 Spatial structure
Smederevo (with rural settlement Radinac) is dominant in the existent spatial structure
of Smederevo industry and it is the center of industrial activities together with the
settlement Mala Krsna and Osipaonica with a nucleus of industrial activities. Industrial
production in the city center of Smederevo is carried out at different locations: in industrial
zones and separate locations.
6.3

6.17.1
List of industrial zones and companies in industrial zones
1. The industrial zone of the U.S. Steel is located 7 km southeast from the City, is at
the same time the most significant pole of the City development, connected with the
production of raw iron and steel, that is, a ferrous metallurgy segment. It encompasses an
area of around 300 ha, with high values of techno economical and spatial characteristics in
terms of water consumption (it has its own source of drinking water), waste water quantities
(which are disposed through the collector into the river Ralja), electrical energy
consumption (developed long-distance pipe line net), high-volume of incoming and exiting
loads (within the zone there is a railway station) with a very prominent position in the
system of production links in the republic and recently more and more trans regional spatial
dimension.
At the above location, there is a production of industrial and medical gases in the
enterprise ’MESSER-Tehnogas’. Specific type, quantities and production method within the
zone creates intensive ecological pressure on all environment elements, wherefore it is an
area where the environment is highly endangered.
2. The industrial zone west from the center – a traditional zone of the Old Steel
Works with the surface of 21 ha, is also of mono structural character and with high
technical and economical advantages. During the first initial development phases, it was an
important agglomerative element in the spatial City structure, but with time it became a
bottleneck of the development in permanent conflict with surrounding content and obstacle
to the more complex and adequate development of the Danube basin. Therefore, its
purpose of production and industrial function should be changed into a tourist-cultural
content through elaboration of various models of cultural projects.
3. The industrial zone in the field of Godomin, northeast from the City, is divided into
several sub-zones. It is, actually, a trade zone which is not sufficiently rounded spacewise, with incomplete content but with great spatial and developmental capacities. The
word industrial in the title comes from the initial and still predominant industrial activities in
the zone. According to its position, content, observed problems and developmental
capacities, the following sub-zones stand out:
(1) the existing industrial zone with the surface of 101.3 ha where the most
industrial enterprises are located, diversified in their structures: household
appliances production (’Milan Blagojević’), machines for production and exploitation
Str. 48
of mechanical energy (’Uniteh’), machines for special purposes (’Fagram’), clothing
items production (’Uno Martin’) and other, but there are also other economic
activities – traffic, handcraft trades, wholesale trade and storaging and others
(’Lasta’, ’Zmaj’, ’NIS’, ’Dunav’ etc.).
There are spatial potentials within the existing individual locations of industrial
enterprises but there are also limitations to further development related to the ecological
aspect, first of all, to the disposal of waste technological and sanitary waters and to
ensuring the underground water optimum level;
(2) sub-zone ’Šalinački put’, surface area of 15 ha, where parceling is taking
place at the moment, which will, together with infrastructure equipment and traffic
connection, represent a significant potential with the main orientation towards the
development of small and large enterprises. That implicitly includes clear
definition of production programs coordinated with ecological capacities of the
area additionally stressed by existence of water-springs and water-supply
enterprises nearby;
(3) sub-zone located along the main road of industrial zone has multipurpose
character with the total area of 36.86 ha. On the right side, in the direction of the
connection with the Bridge of Kovin (surface area of 20.56 ha) there are
structures of communal activities and other. On the left side, on the Danube
bank, there are reloading locations of separation (9 ha) and construction
company ’Jugovo Company’ (7.3 ha).
In this location with great development possibilities, there are problems related to
land ownership and unsolved hydro technical measures related to maintenance
of underground water level and similar.
Besides distinctive sub-zones, in the wider spatial context of this industrial/trade
zone, there is a location (10.8 ha) within which the industrial activity of transportation unit
production is takes place, with relatively sufficient space reserves for further development
but also present ecological limitations.
4. New industrial zone and industrial park - The realization of the project of
infrastructural equipping of the new industrial zone (84 ha) is in due course, the detailed
regulation plan has been adopted, and property issues settlement as well as layout
development is in progress with the support of the National Investment Plan.

Traffic infrastructure
Regarding traffic development, the City of Smederevo has a number of convenient
conditions in almost all traffic aspects. Many traffic lines important for Europe, Republic,
Region and Municipality itself cross here. The most important component is vicinity of two
important European traffic corridors, the land one - X and the water one - VII. This fact
adds to the quality and enables multimodality of traffic aspects which provide an additional
developmental opportunity for Smederevo as a regional center of Serbia. Traffic
significance of Republic values, besides European ones, is provided by other arterial
connections, especially the road M-24 or ’Banat direction’, and railway line of prime
relevance with an important hub in Mala Krsna.
Str. 56
8.1.1
Road infrastructure
Smederevo confirms its traffic legality of regional importance, beside mentioned
corridors, with the regional road lines: R109, R100, R109b and R214, R202, R214.
Regional line M1.10 is also important. The City of Smederevo is one of few Serbian cities
with transit roads away from urban center. All these traffic characteristics enable favorable
development of the villages around Smederevo.
The basis of the road infrastructure in the City of Smederevo consists of regional
and local roads and the section of the arterial road, along which both urban and suburban
traffic take place. Transit traffic takes place on the highway E-75 which divides the
municipal territory to northern and southern part, along arterial road M-24 and on the
roundabout route. The total length of the arterial, regional and local roads in the territory of
the Smederevo is 221 km. The City of Smederevo is characterized by the developed
network of the arterial and regional roads and solid network of local roads.
In conclusion, Smederevo is, thanks to the traffic position, a European city, an
important Republic center, and regional center.
Particular investments are expected for the Port of Smederevo, railway line and the
hub of Mala Krsna, modernization and equipment of Highway with its supporting contents,
reconstruction and modernization of regional roads and conception of air-traffic. At the local
level, the following investment priorities should be underlined: investments in the city traffic
network with a particular priority on the bus station and railway station, main city
communications, investments in stationary traffic (car park arrangements), as well as in
public urban transportation, local roads, especially their modernization and other.

Rail transportation and infrastructure
Railway traffic is a significant municipal traffic system element. Almost all railroad
ranks are present in the system. Thus, main direction is the railway line E-85 BelgradeMala Krsna-Niš, which divides the City to two parts, north and south one. The railroad is of
the highest technological level in the country and connects Smederevo to Europe and the
development backbone in the Republic, corridor X. The railway hub Mala Krsna is one of
the most perspective in the Republic. Through it, the spur track connects Smederevo to the
East of the Republic, direction Požarevac – Bor and the City of Smederevo. The City of
Smederevo has 1.7 railway stations per 100 km², while Republic has 0.8. In the Republic,
the density of the railroad network is 4.3 km/100 km², while that indicator for the City of
Smederevo is 11.8. In the economic sense, the railway traffic is the strongest traffic branch
of economy and in the late 80-ies around 50% of the employees in the traffic branch was
employed at the railway system. The future image and development opportunity of
Smederevo in the railway traffic is the announced modernization of the railway traffic in the
Republic and realistically planned connection Pančevo-Kovin-Mala Krsna which would
promote Smederevo into even more important railway hub and relieve Belgrade hub.
The railway hubs consist of seven stations: Smederevo, Radinac, Mala Krsna,
Osipaonica, Skobalj, Vranovo and Kolari, and six stops: Godomin, Vranovo, Osipaonica,
Lugavčina, Skobalj and Ralja.

This aspect of traffic is also regarded as a development potential since there is a
development center in one, now sport – tourist airport. Its perspective is especially seen in
a very favorable position in relation to the position of other development points of port,
railway station and whole industry. This airport can very quickly grow into a tourist –
business airport with maintained sport and agricultural role.
8.1.4 River traffic
The importance of this traffic aspect in the City of Smederevo has coordinated
intensity. Although it has had a decisive importance for the locations of some strategic
economic capacities in developmental and traffic sense, its present role is less than what is
possible in the future. The passenger port issue is a current topic in regard to tourism
development as well as an adequate treatment of the freight port.
Infrastructure of the river traffic of the City of Smederevo consists of Danube
waterway, old port, marina, new port, terminal for liquid “Jugopetrol” loads, as well as
smaller piers (gravel pits) which are located along the bank in the industrial zone.
The port is registered for international traffic and is located in the very center of the
City. It has reloading capacities which can realize 1.5 millions of freight tons a year. The
Municipality has significant development options in the area of river traffic, freight and
passenger alike.

9 Environment
Quality of the environment of the City of Smederevo is one of the imperatives of its
future development, especially in the dynamics of its realization. Smederevo has to
abandon its former concept of priority development of low accumulative economic activities
and generally (strategically) it has to give preference to ecological component, thus
supporting generally accepted principle of sustainable development. The Municipality of
Smederevo made and adopted LEAP in 2007. In this way, local authorities will be more
prepared, as far as ecology is concerned, to approach European standards and at the
same time development funds and loans.
9.1
Air quality (pollution)
The largest air pollution is created by the U.S.S. Serbia which emits vast amounts of
polluting substances from its emitters and from its ore and secondary raw material stock
piles .The most endangered residential areas are in the immediate vicinity of U.S.S. Serbia,
that is, Radinac, Vranovo, Mala Krsna and Ralja. In collaboration with the city authorities
and the Ministry for Environmental Protection and Spatial Planning the certain measures
for reducing pollution are being taken. Up till now, U.S.S. Serbia has invested more than 60
million dollars into environmental protection equipment. Air pollution in Smederevo stems
from heating also,i.e. boiler and heating house and individual heating. Boiler houses are
located around the whole city and as such they are irrational. Coal, masout, fuel oil are
used as heating generating products. Elaborate for constructing Central Heating Plant for
gas is under way. Besides U.S.S. Serbia and heating houses, considerable amount of
pollution comes from traffic. Traffic pollution is especially the problem along the motorway
and in the City of Smederevo.
Specific relief and the winds are conducive to a better air quality in the Sumadia part
of Smederevo territory.

Soil quality
Irrational use of pesticides and compost in agriculture, as well as pollution from
wastewater and depots represent a threat to the soil in Smederevo territory. At the

carried out by the Institute for Agriculture Smederevo,so as to reduce negative effects on
the quality of valuable soil potentials.

device for waste water treatment.

underway, as well as the construction of the main collector through the financial
means of National Investment Plans and City budget.

12 Local development in relation with regional and national
strategic documents
- Spatial Plan of the Republic of Serbia (’The Official Herald of RS’, No. 13/96):
Two most significant corridors of the European rank – corridor VII and corridor X
motorway pass through the territory of the Smederevo Municipality. Corridor X – motorway
has been elaborated separately – Spatial plan of the infrastructural corridor X adopted by
the government of the Republic of Serbia – Decree about Spatial Plan consolidation for the
area of the infrastructural corridor of the motorway E-75, section Belgrade-Niš (’The Official
Herald of RS’, No. 69/03). Since there are already three exits – entries to the motorway in
the territory of the Smederevo Municipality: Petrijevo, Kolari and Ralja, the new ones are
not planned. The mentioned Plan determines corridors required for infrastructure
development – traffic, railway, gasline, optical cable corridor, protective belts are defined
and rules of arrengment accepted by the Spatial Plan of the Municipality of Smederevo and
defined in more details by making regulation plans in these belts. It is worth mentioning that
the Spatial Plan of the corridor X includes almost 2/3 of the total territory of the Municipality
of Smederevo in order to more clearly define borders of the Plan which was sent to all
cadastral municipalities included in the Plan.
In this way we have defined provisions of the plan of higher order that are main entry
data of higher level in strategic planning of local economic development of the City of
Smederevo.
