📋 Tender Overview
The key part of the Prague - Airport - Kladno project can move into the next phase of preparations. The Ministry of the Environment has assessed the impact of the planned construction from Pragues Dejvice to Veleslavin on nature and the health of residents and has issued a favorable opinion. The track will run in a completely new alignment through a tunnel under Stresovice.
The favorable EIA opinion confirms that the planned construction has undergone a thorough assessment of its environmental and public health impacts. It also sets conditions aimed at ensuring necessary measures and minimizing the negative impacts of the project.
This year engineering geological surveys were conducted directly along the route of the future tunnel between both stations. They will provide detailed information about the subsoil and will become an important basis for the subsequent permitting process. Both Czech and foreign experts previously selected the route of the tunnel under Stresovice as the best and safest among several options. It was also approved by the councils of the Prague City Hall and Prague 6.
Moving the railway underground will free up the corridor of the existing track. In its place a green radial will be created which will serve as a space for leisure and will become a completely new connection between Dejvice and Divoka Sarka for pedestrians and cyclists. The construction of the new track between Dejvice and Veleslavin is planned to start in 2028.
The construction is part of the Prague - Airport - Kladno project which consists of 11 separate phases. The reconstruction of the Negrelli Viaduct is completed a new station in Bubny has been in operation since August and there is a stop at Vystaviste. Trains are already running between the Kladno-Ostrovec and Kladno stations where a new station building is currently under construction. Before starting the modernization of the track from Pragues Ruzyne to Kladno has been approved with a valid building permit. Next year the Railway Administration will begin looking for a contractor for the work in the section from Vystaviste to the new underground station in Dejvice.
