📋 Tender Overview
In the framework of the European Cohesion Policy Program in the period 2021-2027, the Water Directorate of the Republic of Slovenia is implementing the operation Flood risk reduction in the Savinja basin - 1st block in Slovenia.As part of the operation, which is co-financed by the European Union from the European Regional Development Fund and the Republic of Slovenia, the implementation of the following key water management and accompanying regulations is planned, i.e. measures to reduce the risk of flooding:
1. Arrangement of the section of the Savinja river from the Grobelj bridge in Locica to Mali Braslovce (part of the DPN area Locica - Letus)
Extensive work is currently underway to reduce the risk of flooding in the wider area of the municipalities of Braslovce and Polzela. In the section of Savinja between Mali Braslovce and Locica ob Savinja, arrangements are planned for a more than 7 kilometer long section of the Savinja river and an approximately 1.8 kilometer long section of the Loznica relief.
The bulk of the works are earthworks. Expansion of the Savinja river bed with the formation of new banks, activation and removal of gravels, construction of new embankments and rehabilitation and elevation of existing embankments are planned. Part of the project also covers the securing and strengthening of the newly formed banks, which also includes the implementation of several systems of kennels. Six stabilization thresholds with fish lanes will be built in the riverbed itself in order to stabilize the level. An important part is also the large-scale planting of the river bank, which will be carried out in accordance with the landscape architecture plan after the construction works have been completed. The set of all works represents a complete whole, with which we not only ensure the improvement of flood safety of urbanized areas in the entire considered section, but also greater erosion resistance of the Savinja riverbed.
The works are carried out by the leading partner NIVO EKO d.o.o. and partner HIDROTEHNIK d.o.o.. Engineer and supervisor services are provided by leading partner INFRA d.o.o. in joint performance with partner SAVAPROJEKT d.d. Krsko.

2. Arrangement of Savinja pod Laski - Recica in Debro.
The development area includes the estuary part of the Recica river bed, approximately 600 m long, underpasses and underpasses from the confluence of Recica and Savinja to the transformer station next to the railway line, and storm drainage in this area. The flooding of the Mulenca stream, which is the right tributary of the Savinja, is also partially resolved.
It is planned to build an anti-flood wall on the left bank of the Recica stream, remove bridges, build a new bridge over the Recica with an access road, raise the existing road with an embankment, introduce the Mulence embankment into a culvert that drains water into Savinja, and build mobile barrier walls on tunnels and underpasses under the railway embankment. Storm sewers will also be arranged to solve the backwater problem.
The selection of the contractor for the execution of the works takes place within the framework of the public procurement procedure.
The contract for the provision of engineer and supervisor services is concluded with JV INFRA d.o.o. and HSE INVEST d.o.o.
The operation Reducing the risk of flooding in the Savinje basin - 1st block represents a comprehensive approach to solving the risk of flooding with the coordinated operation of technical solutions and nature-based solutions, which contributes to the achievement of the goals of environmental protection and sustainable development. This not only provides physical protection against floods, but also preserves natural spillways, improves the state of water ecosystems and reduces the long-term costs of eliminating the consequences of floods.
