Entrance only for supplies
The supply services will receive an exception, as explained by the hard deputy mayor of Prague 6, Jiří Lála from the ODS: “If I do not have a destination in Prague 6, I should not leave the Prague ring road at all, because According to surveys, about 80 to 90 of those drivers will accept a percentage. “
The request for an entry ban has been dealt with by the Road Administration for several weeks. Once his decision is final, road users will begin placing road signs. The management of the municipality and Prague 6 estimate a lot that it could be during April.
