Repair of the entry began last year in November.
We have built a completely new platform on all platforms, said Petr Hofhanzl from Sprva eleznice. The original underpass was not suitable and barrier-free access was missing. That is why a new underpass with pull-ups was created, which will not only help people with reduced mobility, but also mothers with corks.
In addition, the underpass is extended straight to the Roztók museum, which, according to the Central Czech Councilor for Culture Vclav Vendy, will support its development. This year, the museum opened an archeology exhibit with legal exhibits, holographic projects, and pota’s perspectives.
The summer screen at the exterior of the building has been renovated to look like it did when it was created, i.e. from 1911. So now the color chosen corresponds to the original distance, its layer was found according to the Minister of Transport Martin Kupka. Interesting things here are, for example, the historical luxfers, but also the original trench.
In the northern part of the screen, there were toilets that had not been used for a long time. According to the mayor of Roztok, Jan Jakob, in the near future, the construction of a parking lot could follow the restoration of the land.
From the underpass towards the museum, the local Rozto Association created graffiti based on the proposal of children from the art group, its common motifs are Roztoky and the Praha – Drany railway line.
