Novi Sad and lower Petrovaradin: daytime water restriction until 18:00
Under the published schedule, the Bačka side of Novi Sad and lower Petrovaradin could have had low pressure or no water on July 10 from 08:00 to 18:00. The utility linked the restriction to pipeline reconstruction at the old Strand filtration station and expected the network to stabilize in the evening; eight drinking-water tankers were placed at Futog Market, Trg slobode, Betanija, the Clinical Centre, and four other points.

021: Novi Sad and part of Petrovaradin with low water pressure
021 reported that on July 10 from 08:00 to 18:00 the Bačka side of Novi Sad and lower Petrovaradin would have no water or reduced pressure because of reconstruction at the Strand station. The report expected normalization in the evening, listed eight drinking-water tanker locations, and put completion of the RSD 300m project at the end of 2026.
