Prague 3 sent to the SOS City Hall due to traffic jams
Representatives of the third city district expressed dissatisfaction with the coordination of investment projects and the time of their implementation at a joint meeting with politicians from the “big town hall”. . In addition to exchanging letters and phone calls, Deputy Mayor for Transport Adam Scheinherr (Prague himself) and representatives of municipal companies involved in the deadlines (eg TSK or PVS) met with councilors from Prague 3. “Prague 3 supports dissatisfaction with how investments are coordinated and to ensure the fact that no emphasis is placed on implementation when selecting contractors,” Ptáček pointed out.
Deputy Scheinherr (Prague) does not relinquish the role of coordinator of traffic restrictions, and Prague 3 has promised to complete the reconstructions as soon as possible, ideally before the end. In addition, the tram department in Seifertova Street is to take place from Monday.
“Every day that is built or repaired somewhere can reduce the comfort of people who live in or pass through. Therefore, when I joined the City Hall, we started in the Transport Company and the TSK competition not only with regard to price, but also with an emphasis on speed. This does not yet work for other city companies that are currently implementing their projects in Prague 3, “said Scheinherr.
However, the mayor of the “troika” considers the current consideration of construction time to be insufficient on the part of the city. In the case of a demanding reconstruction of Koněvova Street, the following stages should be on the side of the TSK competition with a 40% weight on the stated criterion.
Scheinherr: The current problems could not catch the best coordination
“The debt on the transport infrastructure that I have inherited is huge. Therefore, we can no longer postpone important infrastructure projects that have an impact on the whole quarter and its development. Repairs in Prague 3 were concentrated within a week with a public holiday, when there is usually less traffic in the streets. However, two accidents fell into this – the heat pipeline at the intersection of Jan Želivský and Olšanská and the accident at the U Bulhara traffic light, “Scheinherr explained the current problems, which he said” the best coordination could not catch “. “Unfortunately, complications occurred on Monday and on Thursday and Friday the situation was different, better,” he added.
The congested roads are the subject of many debates on the popular Facebook page of Prague 3, Žižkov, where we live. “Žižkov last experienced so many barricades in the forty-fifth spring,” Marek Kroufek remarked. “Yes, they must have figured out how to get rid of that anger. It was very passable, “wrote Robert Hanzlík again. And Petr Kříž added him with a comment: “So they ‘improved’ the passage of Olšanská and Želivský with another occupation at NNŽ”.
Another user then described as “traffic nonsense”, helping the impassability of Prague, among other things, removing the lane to Olšanka. But not everyone gives wine for complications of the municipality. “Congestion makes people. Kousek pod Žižkovem. Out of 30 cars in 20, only one person sat, “wrote user Pem Xna on Tuesday. The previous municipal coalition led by Adriana Krnáčová (ANO) faced harsh criticism of the Žižkov town hall due to the coordination of traffic closures in 2018.
