This, she added, will make it possible to export finished wagons, trains and trams produced in the Siemens factory there from the MIND Park in Kragujevac through the Port of Bar. Now trams are only shipped in parts by trucks, which makes production and transportation more expensive, Veljković said.

The owner of TV Jadran and the director of the film “Safe harbor” Boris Đurašević said that in the last year Luka Bar has gone through various transitions, that several directors and management have changed, and that new investors have arrived.
