Niš residents protest proposed high-speed railway route

Residents of the Pantelej district in Niš, Serbia, gathered again to protest against the proposed route of a high-speed railway through their neighborhood. Demonstrators claim that local authorities have failed to properly inform the public about the project details. In addition to public demonstrations, citizens are actively gathering petition signatures calling for alternative urban planning solutions to bypass the residential area.

The ongoing dispute has also prompted attention from the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, which responded to the community's concerns regarding the infrastructure plan. Local organizers emphasized they will continue demonstrations until their requests for a route revision are addressed by municipal officials.
