Section Požega—Border with Montenegro

Požega — Boljare section represents the final segment of the A2 motorway in Serbia, connecting Požega with the Boljare border crossing on the border with Montenegro. The total length of the section is 106.3 km, divided into 11 subsections.

The motorway runs through the valley of the Moravica River, between the slopes of Javor and Golija, across the Pešter plateau, passing near Arilje, Ivanjica, and Sjenica (Duga Poljana), and ends at the future Boljare border crossing. The most demanding part of the route is between Požega and Duga Poljana, where 72 bridges with a total length of 35 km and 10 tunnels with a total length of 16.88 km are planned.

Five major interchanges are planned along the route:

• Požega (0 km),
• Arilje (≈ 18 km),
• Ivanjica (≈ 38 km),
• Duga Poljana (≈ 78 km), and
• Boljare (106.3 km).

The estimated cost of construction is around €1 billion. Works are expected to begin after the completion of the Preljina — Požega section. Due to the challenging terrain, this section is considered one of the most complex in Serbia, with a large number of bridges and tunnels.
