Serbia in context: Street-network sprawl of new development

The level of street-network sprawl in new development in Serbia rose steadily. To get a sense of how street development has changed in Serbia, we can consider three of its most populous regions: Grad Beograd, Južno-Bački and Nišavski. Out of the three regions, Nišavski does not follow the same trend as the country. The level of street-network sprawl in new development in Nišavski peaked in 1991-2005.

The largest city in Serbia is Belgrade, with a population of 1147100 people. Taking into account the entire (i.e. aggregate) street network in Belgrade as of 2020, the overall level of street-network sprawl is 3.19, which is moderately connected. The level of street-network sprawl in new development in Belgrade rose steadily.

Serbia in context: Aggregate street-network sprawl

As of 2020, the city with the most disconnected street network in Serbia is Kraljevo with an SNDi of 5.68, which is very sprawly. Conversely, the most connected city is Zrenjanin with an SNDi of 2.26, which is well-connected. See these two cities’ trends in the above graph, or dive deeper into each: Zrenjanin, Kraljevo.
