On 2 November 2009, the concept for the new Prague development
plan was published.
The development plan is one of the principal documents for the
development of Prague over the next few years.
The new development plan is expected to come into effect in 2012
and contains the following new principles:
- reconstruction and revival of neglected areas
- development of recreational areas
- new rules about the location and construction of high-rise
buildings
- a new methodology for functional and territorial
regulation
- an emphasis on the development of mass transportation, in
particular rail traffic
A public hearing about the concept will take place on 23
November 2009. Members of the public may submit proposals about
and/or objections to the concept up until 9 December 2009.
