With a delay, the construction of a pedestrian and cyclist connection between Bubeneč and Holešovice has begun. The 400-meter-long connector will shorten the journey between the two districts by 700 meters.
The mayor of Prague 7, Jan Čižinský (Praha sobě), announced the news on his social networks. As Městem na kole wrote in 2023, the construction was originally supposed to be completed by the fall of 2023.
The path with an asphalt surface will operate in a mixed mode for pedestrians and cyclists. Its creation is enabled by the reconstruction of the railway line near the Bubeneč station. The train track will be going on pylons through the future new district, under which passage will be allowed.
In the future, completely new streets will be created here, connecting the two districts. The new path will thus be a „temporary solution,“ but a route for this connection will remain.
The path is being built by the Railway Administration with financial contributions from the capital city. It should be completed by September of this year.
According to the Prague cycling master plan, the main bike route A16 will lead through this path. On the Bubeneč and Letná side, it will continue along Veletržní, and on the Holešovice side, it will follow Dělnická Street.
