The City of Mostar, located approximately 120 km south of Sarajevo, is one of the largest cities in the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina. However, the city’s water and sewerage systems are not adequate. The existing sewerage system is only 50 km long and it covers only certain parts of the city. At the same time, the wastewater is drained directly into the Neretva and Radobolja rivers, seriously impacting the environment and endangering water quality downstream.
WBIF has provided a technical assistance grant to support the construction of 14 km long sewer collectors on both Neretva river banks and one lateral collector, 1.150 km long. Technical assistance covered the preparation of technical documentation for the repair and improvement of the existing infrastructure and the construction of new facilities including tender documents for the execution and supervision of works.
