The eight-decade-old Sava Bridge in Belgrade is closed to traffic on November 2, 2024 in preparation for its removal, the Belgrade City Traffic Secretariat announced, despite opposition from some residents of Serbia's capital, who cite both emotional attachment and traffic concerns. Built in 1942 by German occupiers during WWII, it was one of four bridges over the Sava River used for vehicles in the busy central city area, often plagued by traffic jams.
