Railway bridge on Výton to be moved to new location

The railway bridge on Výton will be replaced by a new construction and will be moved to a location near the Modřany dam, where it will serve as a footbridge for pedestrians and cyclists, the Prague City Council announced on Monday. It selected the new site for the bridge on the basis of a study of possible locations prepared by the Institute of Planning and Development. The Railway Administration plans to replace the bridge, which is in poor condition, but thanks to its protected status it will be moved, not demolished.
