In time, a row of halls, warehouses and storage object along the river bank were built. The grain was transported to the capital Vienna, while later, with the industrialization of Pančevo, shipping of the beer, silk, salt, bricks and timber developed. Later, in Habsburg period, it became a hub of the river routes in the Banat region. Pančevo had a busy port already in the 17th century, when it was occupied by the Ottoman Turks. In its lower course, the river is regulated, and for the last 53 km (33 mi) it is navigable. All got new access roads, some of them have barges-restaurants, some sports fields, etc. One, also called Skela, was arranged as part of the joint Serbian-Romanian project "Eco-Timiș - new touristic product". A small bridge was placed, and the crushed stone was poured before the beach, to purify and clear the water. At Idvor, 250 poplars were planted, to restore the natural vegetation balance along the river. īy the 2020s, several beaches developed along the river's banks, outside if Pančevo. Upstream, there was another beach in Gornji Grad neighborhood called "At three carrots", while the wild beach "Bećar Lido" developed on the very mouth into the Danube. Sports club "Banat" held revues and competitions on the municipal beach in the 1920s, which survived until the 1970s. The former was paid and had pontoons, while the latter, with two marked basins, was open for everyone. Later, two beaches developed in Donji Grad neighborhood, left of the bridge across the river: Waltman's and municipal (also called students or military beach). Īrranged beach on the Timiș, with paid tickets and some 200 visitors daily, was recorded in Pančevo in 1891. The anti-flood embankments will be re-fortified, too. The forest degraded in time and will be rejuvenated as part of the same project. It also includes the footbridge across the Timiș which will connect the city with the City Forest which stretches along the opposite, un-urbanized bank. The project is titles "Pančevo Promenade". Section between the bridge and old shipyard facilities will be completely reconstructed with addition of renovation of "city pontoon" (floating platform for various public activities), sports and recreation fields, skate park, ski slopes, bicycle paths, etc. A plan of massive reconstruction of the quay and urbanization of the area was announced for years and confirmed in June 2020. The right bank, on river's course through Pančevo close to its mouth, was arranged as a promenade in the 1980s. At Pančevo, near the confluence, there are catamarans, canoes and bicycles for renting. The bicycle paths along the river have been built and locations for recreational fishing have been set. Starting from Timiș' origin in Romania, up to its mouth in Serbia, the bird watch towers, benches, gazebos, small bridges, billboards, signposts and waste containers have been placed. Within the scopes of the Interreg IPA program, conducted jointly by Romania and Serbia, the area around the river has been arranged in the 2017-2019 period. The colonies of magnificent bryozoans were found in the river. It covers 300 ha (740 acres) of marshland, with several dozen of deciduous species and 176 species of birds and mammals. The most important port is the heavily industrialized Pančevo.Īt the rivers, mouth, on the right bank, there is a forested are, the Pančevo Forest. After entering Banat, the river becomes slow and meandering. It leaves the mountains and enters the Banat plain near Lugoj. Downstream from Caransebeș it turns northwest. It flows towards the southeast, through the Trei Ape Reservoir, until it turns north near Teregova. The source of the river is near the mountain resort Semenic, in the Semenic Mountains, Caraș-Severin County, Romania. Its average discharge at the mouth is 47 m 3/s (1,700 cu ft/s). The river flows through Romania for 241 km (150 mi), and 118 km (73 mi) through Serbia. With the Danube, it belongs to the Black Sea drainage basin. The Romans, who traversed the plains of Hungary, suppose that they passed several navigable rivers, either in canoes or portable boats but there is reason to suspect that the winding stream of the Teyss, or Tibiscus, might present itself in different places under different names. In antiquity, the river was known as Tibiscus (in Latin) and Tibisis (Θίβισις in ancient Greek) in addition, Edward Gibbon referred to it as the Teyss.
