The parking garage in Prague Na Dědině will cost the city about 320.5 million CZK

Prague - The parking building in Prague Na Dědině will cost the capital city approximately 320.5 million crowns. The building with 290 parking spaces will serve as a catchment parking lot and will also provide parking for local residents who lost their parking due to the construction of the tram line from Divoká Šárka to Dědina. This follows from a document that was approved by Prague city councillors today. The building will be constructed for the city by a consortium of companies led by Subterra. The line to Dědina was put into operation by the transport company (DPP) this October.

The building will have a reinforced concrete skeleton with three above-ground floors and one partially buried basement. Parking will also be available partially on the roof of the building. The building will take the form of a spiral. The roof will be partially covered by a pergola with planters for climbing greenery, which will be so-called deciduous. "The walls facing the adjacent panel building are predominantly solid with non-deciduous climbing greenery," the document states.

The construction of the parking building was a condition for the consent to the construction of the tram line in the EIA process, which assesses the impact of the construction on the environment. Parking spots were canceled on Vlastina Street, through which the line runs, due to the construction. The building will be located at the end of the line at the tram loop, in agreement with local residents.

The DPP formally launched the line on October 22. Trams started running on it a day later. The 2.3-kilometer line with five pairs of stops runs from the current loop at the Divoká Šárka stop along Evropská Street and then turns into Vlastina Street.
