Kladno residents were able to express their views on the state of public space in their city thanks to the Municipal Interventions Kladno project. More than 120 different suggestions were collected, and the organizers prepared a clear summary from them. This can serve as a guide for authors who decide to dedicate their proposal to improving public space in the city.
We have evaluated the suggestions from the Kladno public and present them as inspiration: - for proposal authors, to facilitate their orientation in the city and its problems and qualities, - for all who manage the city.
A large portion of the suggestions concerns unwelcoming spaces in the city (mainly the bus station, Masaryk Square, and the area in front of the railway station), missing pedestrian and cycling connections throughout the city (especially cycling paths to the center), lack of spaces for relaxation and children's play (mainly in housing estates), insufficient parking in the city center and residential areas, untapped potential of the brownfield at Koněv, and unresolved urban green spaces (especially the connection between the Kročehlavy pond - Sítenské Valley - Sletiště). The lifeless city center and the problematic intersection at Na Cikánce (Kübeck) were also mentioned. All these are challenges for proposal authors! The deadline for submission of proposals is September 9, 2013.
Problems arising from lack of care and poor maintenance include the poor condition of surfaces of some sidewalks and roads, some traffic hazard areas (primarily due to insufficient traffic signage), and litter and neglect of certain areas. We will pass a summary of these suggestions to the Kladno city hall.
However, the public's suggestions did not only concern problems but also positive aspects of the city. These primarily include beautiful city parks, some successful buildings and locations (Sletiště, high school, skatepark, renovated gallery, ...), the urban planning of Sítná, and also the potential of the Kladno-East industrial zone (unfortunately still unused).
