Warsaw. The signaling at Galeria Młociny will be launched. Before Christmas, she jammed the trip

The traffic lights, which before Christmas caused powerful traffic jams at the Młociny gallery, will be launched at the beginning of February. Road workers ensure that it has been redesigned and should no longer generate traffic jams.

On Tuesday, February 4 at noon, a traffic lights will be launched at the intersection of Mazowieckie Princes and the AK “Kampinos” Grouping, near Galeria Młociny.

“Earlier, the signaling program has been redesigned and obtained approval of the Road Traffic Management Office. The date of its launch is not accidental – the signaling will start working in winter holidays, a few days before the weekend, which will give the opportunity to check how it works, with less traffic” – explained the City Roads Authority .

As the road workers added, the signaling will be launched for safety reasons, because “it was necessary to regulate traffic at such a vast and complicated intersection.” Apart from the roads, pavements and bicycle route, there is an entrance to the tram depot and the switching system connecting it with the track along the North Bridge route.

“The situation at the intersection, after starting the signaling, will be constantly monitored by us. If necessary, we will introduce corrections in the program” – assured ZDM.

Before Christmas for four hours

Precautions (switching on travelers in the holidays), which road workers have decided, have a source in difficulties from the past. The intersection has a complicated layout due to the proximity of a large shopping center and a transport hub with a tram loop. As calculated by journalists of “Gazeta Stołeczna”, a total of 64 signaling devices were installed there.

With the launch, several years were delayed, whenever the test was made, there were a car and tram paralysis. Their meaningful coordinating seems to be an impossible task, none of the moved models gave a guarantee of controlling the thicket of lights.

The situation from December proved painfully when Some clients of Galeria Młociny waited for a trip from the parking lot after 3-4 hours. This is because at Amen a street of the AK “Kampinos” group and the area around the intersection with Mazowieckie Street, running along the gallery.
