Dear Residents,

In recent weeks, we have been engaged in productive collaboration with local councilors and residents. We are continuously working to ensure that the construction site causes as little disruption as possible to the local community. Below, we present the solutions that have been implemented over the past few weeks.

Młyńskie Roundabout

The Młyńskie Roundabout area has changed significantly over the past few weeks. We are carrying out intensive work in this area, which has involved changes in traffic organisation. Nevertheless, we are consistently marking pedestrian routes and directions to crossings and bus stops to make it easier to navigate the area. Currently, there are 30 signs in place in this area, indicating pedestrian routes and directions to crossings and bus stops.

Improvement of Pedestrian Routes

This week, we will open a 500-meter section of sidewalk on the eastern side of Meissnera Street, between Janickiego and Ugorek Streets, which will further improve walkability in the area. We have also addressed several pedestrian crossings — including the one on Meissnera Street near Śliczna Street and another at Miechowity Street — where we leveled the surface and filled in uneven areas to make them more accessible for strollers and wheelchairs. Additionally, we have completed sidewalk sections near Bohomolca Street (approx. 150 meters) and on the western side of Lublańska Street (approx. 250 meters).

Please note that the sidewalk along the eastern side of Meissnera Street (from Pszona Street to Młyńskie Roundabout) will be closed. Pedestrians will be redirected to the sidewalk on the western side, which runs from Chałupnika Street to Młyńskie Roundabout.

Barei Roundabout

Along the pedestrian route near Barei Roundabout, we have clearly marked directions to nearby bus stops and workplaces. Between Barei Roundabout and Polsad Roundabout, we have installed 22 signs to guide pedestrians to crossings and key destinations.

We carry out weekly inspections of signage across the construction area to ensure everything remains up to date and continues to support safe, efficient movement through the area.

We have also made commuting easier for public transport users by removing a temporary fence near the bus stop at Barei Roundabout. This will make transfers between multiple bus lines running through this area much more convenient.

Traffic Signage

Traffic changes related to construction needs can be confusing, especially for those familiar with driving in the area. In addition to standard road signs planned during the design phase, we are also making sure that road markings are clear and help guide drivers in a simple, intuitive way.

On John Paul II Avenue, in the turn lane towards Lema Street, we have already repainted the yellow lane markings to improve their visibility for drivers. In the coming days, we will update road markings in other areas as well — for example, at the turn from Franciszka Kniaźnina Street into Bohomolca Street, where the old markings will be painted over, leaving only the temporary ones, making it easier for drivers to navigate the intersection. Such works are carried out in favorable weather conditions — specifically, in the absence of rain. At the entrance to Łąkowa Street from Śliczna Street, we have installed directional arrows (C9 signs) on posts separating the traffic lanes, so drivers can clearly see where to go.

Across the construction site, we are constantly improving signage and pedestrian routes to make moving through the area as safe and clear as possible. However, please remember that this is still an active construction zone. Conditions may change quickly, and relying on “muscle memory” or past habits can be misleading and dangerous. We strongly urge everyone to avoid entering active work zones. It is extremely hazardous, and saving a couple of minutes is not worth risking your safety.We also ask for responsible communication around the project — constructive feedback is always appreciated, but unclear or overly emotional comments do not help residents or the progress of the work.

Thank you for your patience and your involvement in the local community. We are actively listening to your feedback and doing our best to ensure the construction site remains safe for those living nearby. You can always reach us with your questions or suggestions at info@tramwajdomistrzejowic.pl
