EU funding for the Krško Urban Sports Park

SLOVENIA, March 30 - The project covers the revitalisation of degraded and underutilised areas within the town and their conversion into a modern sports and recreation centre. Publicly accessible spaces for sports, recreation, and socialising will be established, designed to be inclusive and accessible to people with disabilities.

As part of the project, 1.8 hectares of new green spaces will be developed.

The project is implemented under Slovenia’s EU Cohesion Policy Programme 2021-2027 and is co-financed by the European Regional Development Fund.
