Novi Travnik je općina u središtu Županije Središnja Bosna. Od 1980. do 1992. nosila je ime Pucarevo po Đuri Pucaru. Sve današnje informacije o gradu možete pronaći na wikipediji, a ovdje je jedan stari zapis iz 1989. godine o zgodovini grada Novi Travnik, kako ga je opisano Nihad Korić (1949-1989).
U ljeto 1949. godine, u kraju gustih šuma i rijetkih naselja, četrnaest kilometara od starog vezirskog grada Travnika, iskopani su temelji MMK BRATSTVO i Pucareva, jednog od najmladjih gradova u zemlji. Iz šumom obrasle i bistrim potocima isprosijecane zemlje, iznikle su današnje Bratstvo i Pucarevo, da bi zajedno rasli tokom četrdeset bogatih, siromašnih, proksnih, mukotrpnih i lijepih godina.
Općina Pucarevo, koja zauzima 233 km2 ima 51 naseljeno mjesto organizovano u 17 mjesnih zajednica. Danas (1989) na teritoriji općine živi 28.504 stanovnika, od toga 9.923 na području grada. Svoje radno mjesto ima 10.025 stanovnika. Koliki je privredni razvoj ovaj kraj doživio u protekle četiri decenije govori i činjenica da je 1949. godine na ovom području bilo manje stanovnika nego danas zaposlenih.
Pucarevo je grad u kome konstituisane, rade i uspješno se razvijaju sve funkcije i službe potrebne za savremeni način života i rada u modernoj urbanoj sredini: stambeno-komunalne, privredne, kulturne, obrazovane, zdravstvene, uslužne, društveno političke, sportsko zabavne i druge.
Književnik Mladen Oljača je 1960. godine ovako vidio Pucarevo: Ovo je grad bez sedih vlasi. Ovdje nema penzionera. Ovo je grad bez skitnica i besposličara. Ovo je grad bez crkava i džamija, bez verskih razlika i trvenja. Ovo je grad bez groblja i bez knjiga umrlih jer ovdje još niko nije sahranjen: budući mrtvaci biće zakopani jedan pored drugog, ali bez molitva, bez hoda i popova i jednakih obilježja iznad humke, jer ih ne dele ni verske ni nacijonalne razlike.
Mnogo toga je izmjenjeno u odnosu na vidjenje Mladena Oljače od prije 29 godina. Medjutim, jedno je isto: ljudi u Pucarevu žive u bratskoj slozi. Ne djele ih ni vjerske ni nacionalne razlike.
Dom zdravlja u Pucarevu danas radi sastavu radne organizacije Medicinski centar Travnik. Osnovna djelatnost je primarna zdravstvena zaštita. U Domu zdravlja djeluje sedam službi: Opšta medicina s kućnim liječenjem, Medicina rada, Služba za zdravstvenu predškolske i školske djece, omladine i žena, Služba za zdravstvenu zaštitu zuba i usta, Higijensko-epidemiološka služba, Služba hitne medicinske pomoći i Služba opštih zajedničkih poslova.
U zdravstvenoj službi radi 150 radnika, šest ljekara specijalista, 16 ljekara opšte medicine, 7 stomatologa, 11 radnika sa VS spremom, 61 sa SSS i 48 radnika na ostalim poslovima. Sa Domom zdravlja su svoj rad udružili i specijalisti konsultanti: internista, hirurg, biokemičar, ginekolog, radiolog, okulista, neuro-psihijatar, fizijatar i pridijator, sve s ciljem da se stanovništvu pruzi stručna i blagovremena medicinska pomoć.
Pucarevo je dobrom saobračajnom mrežom povezano sa drugim dijelovima zemlje. Nalazi se na putu za Gornji Vakuf koji se naslanja na magistralne puteve Sarajevo - Banja Luka - Zagreb i Zagreb - Banja Luka - Mostar - Dubrovnik. U toku je izgradnja modernog magistralnog puta Pucarevo - Bugojno, koji će ovaj kraj povezati sa magistralnim putem Banja Luka - Livno - Split s jedne, i sjevernom Bosnom, Slavonijom i Vojvodinom s druge strane. Autobusni saobračaj je organizovan u vise pravaca. Iz Pucareva busovi polaze u pravcu Sarajeva, Splita, Beograda, Zenice, Travnika...
Od 1957. do 1988. godine pošta je bila locirana u zgradi Skupštine općine, a 18.11.1988 godine otvorena je nova zgrada Pošte sa svim potrebnim uslovima za suvremen rad u PTT saobračaju. Nova ATC sa 5.000 telefonskih brojeva obezbjedjuje kvalitetne linije za narednih tridesetak godina.
OOUR PTT zapošljava 45 radnika, od kojih je 14 kvalifikovano za obavljanje stručno tehničkih poslova u ovoj oblasti.
Danas ukupni stambeni fond na općini Pucarevo iznosi 2.841 stambenih jedinica u društvenom sektoru, a ukupna stambena površina iznosi 160.105 kvadratnih metara, ili prosječna kvadratura po stanu je 56,35 kvadratnih metara.
Revalorizirana nabavna vrijednost kvadratnog metra stambene površine krajem 1988. godine je iznosila 504.948 dinara. Korisna površina društvenog poslovnog prostora datog na upravljanje SIZ-u krajem 1988. godine je iznosila 3.700 kvadratnih metara. Medju kapitalne komunalne objekta spadaju i dva gradska vodovoda. Prvi je izgradjen 1951. godine za snadbijevanje naselja in Kombinata vodom, a drugi 1978. za potrebe grada. Većina komunalnih objekata izgradjena je sredstvima komunalnih doprinosa iz ličnih dohodaka gradjana.
Vrlo uspješno je sproveden i program elektrifikacije tako da na ovom području odavno ne gore petrolejke. Kao nosilac aktivnosti elektrifikacije sela bio je Socijalistički savez. Najveću dio sredstava osigurali su mještani sela putem mjesnog doprinosa i dobrovoljnim radom. Zahvaljujući ovako kvalitetno vodenoj akciji, već krajem 1971. godine bilo je elektrificirano cijelo područje općine Pucarevo.
Ako je u davnoj prošlosti ovaj kraj i imao tendenciju poljoprivrede djelatnosti, od oslobodjenja pa na ovamo poljoprivreda je ustupila mjesto industrijskoj proizvodnji. Otuda i danas uglavnom mali zemljišni posjedi po okolnim selima koji uglavnom služe za dozvoljavanju vlastitih potreba. Medjutim, sve sira upotreba najnovijih agrotehničkih mjera i poljoprivrednu proizvodnju stavlja na vidno mjesto sveukupnog razvoja, pa proizvodnja pšenice, ječma, graha, krumpira iz godine u godinu bilježi rast.
Šljiva, pretežno požegača, je najrasprostranjenija voćka u ovom kraju, poslije nje dolaze jabuka, kruška i trešnja, a u novije vrijeme sve je više zasada malina i jagoda. Sa zadovoljstvom se može konstatovati kako su urodi iz godine u godinu sve bolji. Narod ovog kraja objeručke prihvata suvremeni način proizvodnje voća, pa se tezge pijace u Pucarevu lome pod teretom sočnih plodova.
Stari hrast u Rankovićima, prava rijetkost u svojoj vrsti, visok preko 30 metara a širok 8 metara koji teze odolijeva svom najljućem takmacu - vremenu nije običan hrast već vrijeme od 1.500 godina. Ova prirodna rijetkost nalazi se pod zaštitom države i predstavlja svojevrsnu atrakciju za svakoga ko ga vidi.
U centru grada lociran je hotel Bratstvo, C kategorije, sa 134 ležaja u jednokrevetnim i dvokrevetnim sobama, 250 mjesta u zatvorenom prostoru i 150 mjesta na terasi.

City of Novi Travnik
Novi Travnik is a municipality in the center of Central Bosnia Canton. From 1980 to 1992 it was named Pucarevo by Đuro Pucar. You can find all the information about the city today on wikipedias, but here is an old record of 1989 about the town of Novi Travnik, described by Nihad Korić (1949-1989).
In the summer of 1949, at the end of dense forests and small settlements, fourteen kilometres from the old vizier town of Travnik, the foundations of MMK BRATSTVO and Pucareva, one of the youngest towns in the country, were excavated. From the overgrown forests and the steep streams of remote lands, the present Fraternity and Pucarevo broke out to grow together during forty rich, poor, prosaic, painful and beautiful years.
The municipality of Pucarevo, which occupies 233 km2, has 51 settlements organized in 17 local communities. Today (1989) there are 28,504 inhabitants in the territory of the municipality, of which 9,923 are in the area of the city. Its workplace has 10,025 inhabitants. What economic development this region has experienced over the last four decades is the fact that in 1949 there were fewer inhabitants in this area than today's employees.
Pucarevo is a city in which all the functions and services necessary for the modern way of life and work in the modern urban environment are constituted, worked and successfully developed: housing, communal, economic, cultural, educational, health, service, social, sports and other.
In 1960, writer Mladen Oljača saw Pucarevo: This is a city without gray hairs. There are no pensioners here. This is a city without rogues and idlers. This is a city without churches and mosques, without religious differences and turf. This is a city without a graveyard and without books of the deceased because no one is buried here: future mortals will be buried next to each other, but without prayer, without walking and pops and equal features above the mound, because they do not share religious or national differences.
Much has been changed in relation to seeing Mladen Oljače 29 years ago. However, one thing is the same: people in Pucarevo live in brotherly terms. They are not even religious or national differences.
Today, the health center in Pucarevo is composed of a medical organization Travnik medical center. The primary activity is primary health care. There are seven services in the Health Center: General medicine with home care, Labor Medicine, Health Care Preschool and School Children, Youth and Women, Dental and Health Care Services, Hygienic and Epidemiological Service, Emergency Medical Services and General Affairs Services.
There are 150 workers in the health service, six doctors specialists, 16 general practitioners, 7 dentists, 11 workers with VS training, 61 with SSS and 48 workers in other jobs. The Health Center was joined by specialized consultants: internist, surgeon, biochemist, gynaecologist, radiologist, oculist, neuro-psychiatrist, physiatrist and adjector, with the aim to provide professional and timely medical assistance to the population.
Pucarevo is connected to other parts of the country by a good traffic network. It is located on the road to Gornji Vakuf which rests on the main roads Sarajevo - Banja Luka - Zagreb and Zagreb - Banja Luka - Mostar - Dubrovnik. Construction of the modern main road Pucarevo - Bugojno is under way, which will connect this road with the main road Banja Luka - Livno - Split with one, and northern Bosnia, Slavonia and Vojvodina on the other. Bus traffic is organized in several directions. Bus from Pucarevo goes in the direction of Sarajevo, Split, Belgrade, Zenica, Travnik ...
From 1957 to 1988, the post office was located in the building of the Municipal Assembly, and on 18.11.1988 a new Post building was opened with all the necessary conditions for modern work in the PTT traffic. The new ATC with 5,000 telephone numbers provides high-quality lines for the next thirty years.
OOUR PTT employs 45 workers, 14 of whom are qualified to carry out professional technical work in this field.
Today, the total housing stock in the municipality of Pucarevo is 2,841 housing units in the social sector, and the total residential area amounts to 160,105 square meters, or the average floor area per apartment is 56.35 square meters.
The revalued purchase value of the square meter of residential area at the end of 1988 amounted to 504.948 dinars. The useful area of the social business space given to the management of SIZ at the end of 1988 was 3,700 square meters. Among the capital communal facilities are two city waterworks. The first one was built in 1951 to supply the settlements and the Kombinat water, and the second in 1978 for the needs of the city. Most of the communal facilities were built by means of municipal contributions from the personal income of citizens.
The electrification program has also been very successfully implemented, so that in this area there has not been a prolonged increase in the number of petrochemicals in this area. As the head of the electrification of the village, the Socialist Alliance was. Most of the funds were provided by villagers through local contributions and voluntary work. Thanks to this high quality water action, at the end of 1971, the whole area of the municipality of Pucarevo was electrified.
If in the past, this region had a tendency to agriculture, and since the liberation, agriculture has given way to industrial production. Hence, today mostly small land holdings in the surrounding villages that mainly serve to allow for their own needs. However, all cheese uses the latest agro-technical measures and agricultural production to be a prominent place for overall development, so the production of wheat, barley, peas, and potatoes grows year after year.
Plum, predominantly roasted, is the most widespread fruit in this region, followed by apples, pears and cherries, and in recent times there are more and more raspberries and strawberries. It can be noted with satisfaction that the crops are getting better every year. The people of this part of the region are accepting the modern method of fruit production, so the market in Pucarevo is bursting under the burden of juicy fruits.
The old oak in Rankovići, a real rarity in its kind, is over 30 meters tall and 8 meters wide, which is resisting its fiercest competitor - it's not an ordinary oak tree for 1,500 years. This natural rarity is under the protection of the state and represents a kind of attraction for anyone who sees it.
In the center of the city there is a hotel Bratstvo, C category, with 134 beds in single and double rooms, 250 places in indoor space and 150 seats on the terrace. In the immediate vicinity of the Bratstvo hotel there is the Department store Partizanka, Culture Center, jewelers, florists, fashion boutique, boutique leather goods and pharmacies.
Within this organization are other catering facilities - city tavern with club, restaurant Lira and smaller facilities of commercial catering.
Hotel Novi Travnik, B category, has 156 beds in single and double rooms and with six suites. It has three hundred seats and a seating area on the terrace. The hotel has two lounges for banquets and business meetings, a TV salon, a hairdressing and beauty salon and a tavern.
