Beovoz (Беовоз) is the suburban/commuter railway network that provides mass-transit service in the city of Belgrade, Serbia, similar to Paris's RER and Toronto's GO Transit. The main usage of today's system is to connect the suburbs with downtown Belgrade. Beovoz is operated by Serbian Railways.In near future, new city trains will be ordered in total costs of 240 millions euro.

Belgrade suburban railway system connects suburbs and nearby cities to the west, north and south of the city. Line from Nova Pazova on the western side of Belgrade to Mladenovac which is south of the city is over 70km long.

History

The Beovoz public transit system began operation in 1992.

Ridership

Beovoz handled 6,182,000 passengers in 2006. In 2007 it is projected that the system will handle 7,078,000 passengers.

Service area

There are six lines in the Belgrade underground railway network:

* Stara Pazova-Belgrade Downtown-Pancevo -Vojlovica
* Ripanj-Resnik-Rakovica- Pančevo -Vojlovica
* Stara Pazova -Belgrade Downtownca-Resnik-Ripanj
* Zemun-Belgrade Downtown-Valjevo
* Nova Pazova-Belgrade Downtown-Resnik-Mladenovac
* Stara Pazova-Belgrade Downtown-Mala Krsna

Most stations are not underground, though. The four stations that are built underground are located in the city center.

Future developments

Construction work on a light-rail system in the city is scheduled to commence in 2008 and it would probably last at least seven years [http://arhiva.glas-javnosti.co.yu/arhiva/2006/04/30/srpski/BG06042905.shtml] . The light rail systems will connect with Beovoz at Vukov Spomenik underground station. The sum approved by the city government for the works on the first line is said to be about $450,000,000. The new line should connect Zemun on the north-west and Konjarnik on the south-east of the city central zone.
