New Belgrade water main flushing, October 12 to 17
Belgrade Waterworks flushes the network in New Belgrade blocks for five nights, 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. On Monday, parts of Zvezdara and Veliki Mokri Lug lose water.
Which New Belgrade blocks lose steady water pressure, and on which nights? It depends on the block, and first in line are 28, 37, 38 and 39, on the night between Monday, October 12 and Tuesday, October 13. The public utility Belgrade Waterworks and Sewerage is flushing the network in the New Belgrade municipality from Monday, October 12 to Saturday, October 17, 2026, every night from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m.
Flushing schedule by night
During those hours, residents of the listed blocks may notice intermittent interruptions in supply and reduced water pressure:
- night of October 12 to 13: blocks 28, 37, 38 and 39
- night of October 13 to 14: blocks 21 and 22
- night of October 14 to 15: blocks 29, 30, 31 and 32
- night of October 15 to 16: blocks 1, 2, 3, 4, 33 and 34
- night of October 16 to 17: blocks 19, 19a, 23 and 24
The notice for New Belgrade names no streets and does not mention tanker trucks. The schedule is given only by block number, so all you need to check is your block and the night assigned to it.
What to prepare before you go to bed
The waterworks warns that the water may turn cloudy for a short time during the work, and asks residents to set aside enough drinking water and water for basic needs. In practice, that means filling containers on the evening before your night, for drinking and for the morning, because interruptions come intermittently rather than at a set time. If your block is on the list, fill your containers before 10 p.m.
The work is classed as routine rather than a repair after a failure, so the entire schedule is known in advance, through the last night.
Zvezdara and Veliki Mokri Lug without water on Monday
New Belgrade blocks are not the only ones on the list. On the same day, Monday, October 12, the City of Belgrade also announced two entirely separate outages, this time during the day:
- Zvezdara: because of work on the water network, customers on Zivojina Zujovica Street (from 21. divizije to Ljubljanska), 21. divizije and Ljubljanska will be without water from 8:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. One tanker truck has been provided for essential drinking water needs.
- Veliki Mokri Lug: because of planned work, no water from 8 a.m. to 11 p.m. Tanker trucks have been provided for essential needs.
Both notices come from Belgrade Waterworks and Sewerage. The City of Belgrade published them, while the New Belgrade schedule was also carried by the N1 newsroom.
If you live on one of the streets in Zvezdara or in Veliki Mokri Lug, a day’s notice means one thing: on Monday morning, store your water before 8 a.m., not once the tap has already run dry.
