News / Żagle 2023 – Changes to traffic arrangement and public transport
Residents and employees of companies located in the area of Łasztownia and Chrobry Embankment must prepare for changes to traffic arrangement during the Żagle 2023 (Sails) event. A Pass Office where the residents of buildings at nearby streets will be able to collect entry passes allowing access to the area will be open since Wednesday, 9 August.
The greatest events in our city always involve changes to traffic arrangement and public transport. Some of the streets will be closed for traffic, and additional buses and trams will be provided along some routes. All this to facilitate transport to the event area and a carefree trip home. Drivers and passengers are kindly requested to read about the upcoming developments related to Żagle 2023.
Both before and during Żagle 2023, authorised services will take care of the order and safety of our residents and tourists. Traffic arrangement and public transport have been prepared in such a way so as to ensure that moving around the area is as efficient as possible, despite closing numerous streets.
The residents living in buildings along streets subject to the changes are authorised to drive to their houses based on an entry pass. The passes will be distributed starting from 9 August at the Pass Office, at 6 Jana z Kolna St., between 8:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m.
