The A2 motorway (Serbian: Аутопут А2 / Autoput A2), often called the Belgrade–Čačak motorway (Serbian: Аутопут Београд–Чачак / Autoput Beograd–Čačak) is a motorway in Serbia under construction and when finished it will span for approximately 151.63 kilometers (94.22 mi). It begins in Belgrade and runs southward to Požega. Also, there are considerations for attaching the motorway to future Belgrade–Bar motorway, thus way providing faster link with Montenegro.
The main reason for better road infrastructure among providing the faster link of the capital city with western Serbia and Montenegro, is to unburden heavily loaded Ibar Highway from Belgrade to Čačak, the most frequent and dangerous road in the country.
Several countries including Serbia are lobbying to list the route of Belgrade–Bar motorway, whose part the motorway A2 should be in the future, within Pan-European corridors, and it is frequently referred to as part of proposed Corridor XI (Serbian: Коридор 11 / Koridor XI), or 4B - an envisioned ferry/motorway corridor linking Bari, Bar, Belgrade and Bucharest.
The motorway is split in several sections:
Table's current progress status is as of 1 March 2017.
The northernmost section from Belgrade (Surčin) to Obrenovac is the last contracted section and planned start of the construction is 2017 with 32 months construction period. Total value of 233.69 million USD for this section will be funded by Exim Bank of China. It will include 1800 meters long new bridge over river Sava. This section will be operated by China Communications Construction in partnership with domestic companies. On 1 March 2017, the construction works for this section have officially started.
