“It’s scary. Cars are clogging up all the side streets because of this crazy attempt. So if Adam Scheinherr is behind it, who is he? Stop it!” wrote, for example, one of the visitors to the Facebook group uniting residents of Holešovice.

“The situation is serious at the moment, we certainly don’t want it to continue like this,” Čižinský responded to Novinky.

“We have not come to concrete measures. I pointed out to him that the situation is unsustainable,” he added, adding that, according to him, Scheinherr is monitoring the events on Argentinská Street and evaluating the effects.

Scheinherr himself previously told Pravá that he does not register any problem. “The measure in Holešovičky is working well, Blanka is better passable and the highway is not standing because of it,” he wrote.

News subsequently asked TSK for data on the intensity of traffic in and around the tunnels. However, TSK has not yet evaluated the current data. So it is not clear what Scheinherr is starting from.

But the residents of Holešovice see it differently. “I live almost in Argentinská, and after these lane changes, the traffic has increased significantly from day to day,” another user complains on the Internet.

“The only quick solution that could help a little would be to adjust the speed in V Holešovičkách street outside of Prague, when it could be increased to 70 kilometers from the current 50 kilometers per hour in peak hours,” he suggests.

The problem is in the experimental traffic measure that the municipality introduced in V Holešovičkách street behind the Barikadníků bridge.

Instead of two continuous lanes in the direction from Argentínská street, two lanes are newly established from the Blanka tunnel exit, one of which is continuous. Drivers heading from Argentinská have to merge into one lane, which is a great complication.

The aim of the measure was to ease traffic in the Blanka tunnel complex and the adjacent Povltavská Street. The current modification should last three months, then the effect should be evaluated and the municipality will decide which transport model will be maintained in the area.

As it follows from the experience so far, about which Novinky informed the drivers already a week ago, the result did not come and there is no indication that it could come in the foreseeable future.
