Exploring Prague’s urban chaos, one messy street at a time. Bad planning, good stories

[PragueMaticMess @PragueMaticMess]

Just witnessed @PolicieCZ and @Celnispravacr raiding that dodgy cannabis shop in the city centre. Good to see they’re probably finally dealing with the case. About time.

[PragueMaticMess @PragueMaticMess]

I remember it being there before the reconstruction. There was even a dedicated light for it. It disappeared afterwards, without me ever knowing why. The kerb was still built to accommodate it. And now it’s back for the construction works 😂

[Parkování v Praze @parkovanivpraze]

Přechod pro chodce?! 😱
Co bude dál?! 🤣

[PragueMaticMess @PragueMaticMess]

Great addition. It seems the weird kerb blocks are now officially part of the new design guidelines.

When are we getting such improvement at Karlovo náměstí tram stop? It’s narrow, always busy and still has no seating. Plenty of spare space with the two car lanes

[Jaromír Beránek - pražský náměstek pro dopravu @JaromirBeranek]

Vylepšováky na Otakarově!✅

Širší zastávka, bezpečnější přechod a stanoviště kol. Ne vždy je nutné čekat se změnou na bagry a mohutné zemní práce. Otakarova se dočkala jednoduchých dočasných úprav, které pomohly zlepšit dojem z místa a zpříjemnit cestování veřejnou dopravou.

I guess he’s back. How long is this joke going to continue, @MP_Praha ?

[PragueMaticMess @PragueMaticMess]

Damn, those cyclists

[PragueMaticMess @PragueMaticMess]

We know @prahajedna says bikes aren’t welcome. The entrepreneurs running cycling guided tours disagreed and turned Prague into their showroom. Smart.

[PragueMaticMess @PragueMaticMess]

Masná could become a school street overnight. Odds say not this century

[PragueMaticMess @PragueMaticMess]

Place your bets: how long until the grass at Karlovy Lázně turns into something like Jiráskovo náměstí?

[PragueMaticMess @PragueMaticMess]

Erect a forest of bollards; they’ll still find a gap

[PragueMaticMess @PragueMaticMess]

For reference, before

[PragueMaticMess @PragueMaticMess]

Who decided tram stop numbers should be microscopic?
Asking for my eyes

[PragueMaticMess @PragueMaticMess]

@mattyandersson @prahajedna Thanks for the details! It’s always a bit of a gamble whether the door will be open

[PragueMaticMess @PragueMaticMess]

Can someone explain why the end of Zlatá near the river is kept closed?
@prahajedna

[PragueMaticMess @PragueMaticMess]

Glad they finally inspected them. Did the political winds change, or did the backhanders stop?

🚕 Kontrola pseudoveteránů v centru Prahy: 80 % kontrolovaných vozidel se závadou

INSID se zapojil do společné kontrolní akce zaměřené na tzv. pseudohistorická vozidla využívaná pro turistické okružní jízdy.

Tyhle nový cedule na zastávkách jsou slušnej downgrade. Malej název stanice a ty linky jsou taky dost blbě vidět.

[PragueMaticMess @PragueMaticMess]

Best upgrade to Prague’s buses yet. Finally feels like 2026.

[Zbyněk Jiráček @jiracekz]

Po zastávkách dostáváme online odjezdy i do autobusů DPP. Dneškem nám tak přibyla skoro tisícovka odjezdových tabulí, které vám řeknou, co a kdy jede z příští zastávky. Ještě před pár lety bych nevěřil, že se to podaří.

Pro zájemce vlákno o tom, jak to vlastně funguje. 🚌

[PragueMaticMess @PragueMaticMess]

An amount of schools in the country. Someday I’ll map it to the number of streets concerned

[PragueMaticMess @PragueMaticMess]

I would love to see this street turned into a proper school street, as @CT24zive was talking about recently. When is it coming, @MC_Praha2?

[PragueMaticMess @PragueMaticMess]

I totally missed this addition.
I appreciate this tactical infrastructure.
Before, heavy work, it allows to test new configuration. Tightening the curb radius at pedestrian crossings makes cars slow down and helps prevent car-pedestrian collisions
