A project is underway to enhance the tourism potential of the Bega Canal and revitalize the Otelec area in Timiș County. The Timiș County Council has initiated efforts to reconstruct the historic port at Otelec, aiming to transform it into a cultural and tourist attraction. The new port infrastructure will be located on the northern bank of the Bega Canal. This reconstruction aims to revive the area's navigable past and support local community development. A key aspect of the investment includes establishing a border crossing with Serbia for navigation, enhancing cross-border cooperation and promoting water transport and tourism between Romania and Serbia. The project also seeks to create a cultural port that connects with EuroVelo 13, a significant European cycling route.
