Residents of three buildings in Zvezdara have been without water for over two weeks following reconstruction work on the local water network.

Residents of three buildings on Učitelja Miloša Jankovića Street in Zvezdara, Belgrade, have been without consistent water supply for over 15 days. The outages began following reconstruction work on the water network that commenced in June. While the investor, JKP Beogradski vodovod i kanalizacija, and the contractor, MPP Jedinstvo a.d. Sevojno, claim the work is finished, residents report that water remains unavailable or is supplied with extremely low pressure.

Conflicting Claims Between Parties

Residents report that the contractor and the municipal water utility have shifted responsibility for the ongoing outage. While the utility company claims the project is complete and they have no further involvement, residents state that the work has left them without water or with insufficient pressure reaching higher floors. One resident, Smiljana Obradović, noted that when a neighbor contacted the utility company's service center, they were told the problem was considered resolved before the phone call was disconnected.

Lack of Official Response

Attempts to resolve the issue through Gradsko stambeno, the city housing maintenance service, have also been unsuccessful. Residents claim the agency refused to investigate potential blockages in shared pipes, insisting that only a building manager could request an emergency intervention. Despite outreach from building managers and legal warnings sent to the utility company, residents report that no effective action has been taken to restore full service.
