📋 Tender Overview
The Slovenian Water Directorate is implementing a comprehensive flood control plan for Zelezniki, which includes implementing measures to protect the settlement from the harmful effects of water. The project is being carried out in two phases.As part of the first phase, which has already been completed, the riverbed of the Selska Sora was regulated in the area of influence of the settlement. In the second phase, which is currently being implemented, the construction of the dry reservoir "Pod Suso" is underway, along with water management and other accompanying regulations. Among other things, the road has been relocated, a new bridge has been built, and supporting and supporting structures have been constructed. All work is being carried out in accordance with the Decree on the National Spatial Plan for the Relocation of the Regional Road R2-403/1075 Podrost-Cesnjica through Zelezniki and the regulation of water infrastructure to ensure flood safety in Zelezniki. Regulated Riverbed of the Selska Sora The reservoir "Pod Suso", which is currently under construction, is a key facility for ensuring flood safety of the settlement. It is designed as a high embankment barrier with reinforced concrete elements for water diversion. The barrier will be approximately 20 meters high, the crown length is 80 meters, the crown width is 6 meters, and the impoundment area will cover up to 1 million m3. The facility will serve to contain high water peaks. Construction progress of the dry reservoir As part of the project, three gravel retention pits and water management arrangements were constructed on the Selska Sora with a total length of approximately 1 kilometer. Due to the construction of the barrier, the existing road was moved to a higher level; the road was raised by approximately 20 meters, a new bridge over the Selska Sora with a length of 72.5 meters and a bicycle path were built. The total length of the newly constructed road section is 942 meters. New cable sewer routes were also arranged (medium-voltage and low-voltage lines, telecommunications, public lighting), and three buildings were demolished. Road and bicycle path arrangement Work is currently underway on the floor outlet. Inlet grates have been installed, the outlet section, under-slope and outlet plate are being manufactured, and the under-slope is being lined with crushed stone in concrete. Preparations are underway for concreting the right part of the foundation of the final threshold. The landfill is preparing the material for the embankment of the barrier. A fish pass has been constructed, and the electrical contractor is installing light signals. High waters have deposited debris in the ground outlet, which has already been cleaned. Additional road protection with fishing nets - palisades has also been implemented. The embankment of the barrier and the construction of the clay core are beginning. The completion of the construction works is scheduled for the end of 2025. The construction of the barrier and the accompanying arrangements will ensure the long-term flood safety of the Zelezniki settlement.
