The A3 motorway (Serbian: Аутопут А3, romanized: Autoput A3) is a motorway in Serbia which spans approximately 92 kilometers (57 mi) and is part of the European route E70 through Serbia. It crosses the Syrmia region from east to west, starting at Belgrade and ending at the border crossing with Croatia.

Route edit

The A3 motorway begins near Šid, at the Batrovci border crossing with Croatia, and runs westward across the Syrmia region, near Sremska Mitrovica and Ruma. At the Dobanovci interchange near the outskirts of Belgrade, A3 meets the Belgrade bypass. East od Dobanovci, the A3 continues through Belgrade as the Belgrade city motorway (Serbian: Аутопут кроз Београд), a 29 km (18 mi) long urban highway which ends at Bubanj Potok interchange where it meets the A1.

It includes the exit to Nikola Tesla Airport, located just south of the A3.
