Safe City System Implementation to Start 1 January 2026

The implementation of the Safe City system will start on 1 January 2026. By then, the Interior Ministry will have obtained data on all registered vehicles, which will be aligned also with other institutions.

If a driver commits a traffic offence, they will receive a text or email notifying them of the type of offence within 24 hours.

Police are already testing cameras installed throughout Skopje. Most offences concern speeding and running a red light, Interior Minister Pance Toskovski says. 21 February will see another public debate on potential draft changes to increase traffic safety that will include experts, professors, judges, and Interior Ministry representatives.

Toskovski expects the conclusions to be put up for a vote at a plenary session of Parliament soon after they are summarised.
