Size and type of the zone

The “Poljavnice” industrial zone was established by the decision to create a 75-hectare industrial zone. A feasibility study was carried out for this area, predicting the development of a modern industrial zone. The regulatory plan for the Poljavnice industrial zone covers an area of approximately 17 hectares. Type: greenfield, brownfield, industrial-commercial.

Location

The industrial zone is located on the outskirts of the city between the Una River and the main road M14 (the section from Kozarska Dubica to Kostajnica, Novi Grad, and Bihać), 4 km downstream from the center of Novi Grad. The Novi Grad – Dobrljin – Zagreb railroad line and the main roads Novi Grad – Kostajnica – Sisak, Novi Grad – Banja Luka – Sarajevo, and Novi Grad – Bihać – Split run along the zone.

The industrial zone “Poljavnice” is located on the city’s outskirts between the Una River and the main road M14, 4 km downstream from the center of Novi Grad. The border crossing for railroad traffic for international transportation of passengers, vehicles and goods (Dobrljin, BiH – Volinja, HR) is 15 km away, while the border crossing for international road traffic (Novi Grad, BiH – Dvor, HR) is only 4 km away.

Infrastructure to the Zone

Roads: The main road M14 (section from Kozarska Dubica to Kostajnica, Novi Grad, and Bihać) passes directly by the area. The distance from Novi Grad is 3 km, and from Kostajnica is 24 km. In addition, the main road M4 (from Novi Grad to Prijedor and Banja Luka) also provides further connections. Railroad connections: Novi Grad is a railroad junction with connections to Banja Luka, Bihać (BiH), and Zagreb (HR). Border crossings: The border crossing for rail traffic for international transportation of passengers, vehicles, and goods is located in Dobrljin (BiH) – Volinja (HR), 15 km away. The border crossing for passenger transportation is located in Novi Grad (BiH) – Dvor (HR), only 3 km away. The border crossing for passenger and freight traffic is in Gradina (BiH) – Jasenovac (HR), 25 km away. Electricity: There is a main substation of JP Elektrodistribucije Novi Grad (TS Poljavnice 110/20/10 kV), which is about 700 meters away from the industrial area.Water supply: Available. Sewage: Not available; there is no sewage network in the industrial zone or its immediate surroundings, so septic tanks are used.Telecommunications: Available; the Poljavnice settlement has its telecommunications network for Internet and landline telephone services. The area of the Poljavnice industrial zone will be provided with about 120 new connections for potential new users (residents) of the industrial zone. As this is a new telephone exchange, an ADSL Internet connection is also included.

Infrastructure within the Zone:

Roads: Within the industrial zone there is an unpaved section of a macadam road totaling 1,050 meters (consisting of three sections of 500 m, 350 m, and 200 m). It is necessary to asphalt this section and create new connecting roads within the zone. Electricity: In 2020, a new substation with a capacity of 230/400 kV was built in the industrial zone, effectively solving the problems of companies in the new part of the zone with electricity supply.Water supply: In recent years, the water supply in the industrial zone has been insufficiently addressed. However, in 2020, a secondary water supply network was built and put into operation, partially solving the water supply problem for businesses in the zone. Nevertheless, the water supply problem has not been completely solved, as it is a technical challenge for some companies to connect to the new secondary water network. Wastewater: Not available.Telecommunications: Available. The regulatory plan for the zone: In 2018, the Novi Grad City Assembly adopted the Novi Grad City Spatial Development Plan, which is valid from 2009 to 2039. The regulatory plan for the Poljavnice industrial zone covers an area of approximately 17 hectares. This regulation plan was adopted by the Assembly’s resolution on the approval of the regulation plan for the “Poljavnice Industrial Zone” ” in Novi Grad, together with a resolution on the adoption of amendments and additions to the regulation plan, which covers a period of 10 years (from 2011 to 2021).
