Together with fellow citizens, Mayor Draško Stanivuković took a walk along the new section of the promenade, followed by a concert by Sergej Ćetković, held on the newly renovated banks of the Vrbas.

The five-kilometer-long section also includes three water intakes, essential for the efficient functioning of the Fire Brigade.

Work is underway on the development of the promenade along the Kastel Fortress, extending one kilometer, which will provide Banja Luka with a new ambiance, complemented by the recently installed lighting on the fortress.

"Our plan is to continue the development of the Vrbas Riverbanks from the City Bridge to the Venice Bridge, and then to the Rebrovac Bridge, from where we will develop and connect the area all the way to the new city park, which will be the largest in the country. These are the contours of a new, better, and more beautiful Banja Luka," stated Stanivuković.
