[4] All international ports on the Danube downstream of Novi Sad are connected to the east: Bulgaria (Lom, Ruse), Romania (Cernavodă, Brăila, Galați) and Ukraine (Reni, Izmail).

[4] To the west of the Danube lies links with all international ports upstream of Novi Sad: In Hungary (Dunaújváros, Budapest), Slovakia (Komárno, Bratislava), Austria (Vienna, Linz, Enns), Germany (Deggendorf, Regensburg, Kelheim) and via the Rhine–Main–Danube Canal there are river connections with Germany, Switzerland, and Netherlands, towards the Atlantic Ocean and the North Sea.

[6] After the end of World War II, the city of Novi Sad established a coastal transport company, located on the right bank of the Danube, from Majur to Petrovaradin.

[6] In 1959, the government of the People's Republic of Serbia decided to finance the construction of a freight port in Novi Sad on the right bank of the DTD canal, whose excavation was nearing completion.

[6] City authorities in Novi Sad decided, in 1963, to allocate land of 45 hectares, 58 ares and 61 square metres at a previously designated location on the DTD Canal for the construction of a cargo port and warehouse on a permanent and free-of-charge basis.

[6] In such an environment where the rules of the socialist economy were in place, the port and warehouse company was integrated into the financially more powerful "Heroj Pinki" enterprise.

From 1969 to 1983, the integrated enterprise completed the construction of facilities for the operation of the harbour, closed warehouses, roads, railway tracks, water supply and sewage.

The project consisting of 2.10 hectares includes elements such as port infrastructure and superstructures, constructed vertical quay, as well as reconstruction of the Ribarska and Kanalska streets.
