Modernisation of Smíchov Train Station to start in New Year

A large project to modernise Prague’s Smíchov Train Station should begin at the start of next year and cost over CZK 4 billion, a spokesperson for the Railway Administration said on Wednesday. All the station’s tracks and platforms will be renovated, while underpasses will be rebuilt and extended beneath the entire station, officials said. New lifts will also be installed.

Meanwhile, the city authorities also plan to build a hub connecting all types of public transport in Smíchov, along with a P+R carpark, at a cost of CZK 8 billion.
