Weekend disruptions on Warsaw roads: closure of Wisłostrada, Kościuszko, Grójecka and other streets

This weekend, road workers will be working in several places in the capital.

Wisłostrada closed towards Żoliborz

The biggest changes await drivers on the downtown section of Wisłostrada towards Żoliborz. The work will start on Friday at 10:00 p.m. and will last until Monday, 5:00 a.m.

During this time, the road from the tunnel to Grodzka will be closed. Traffic in both directions will be routed along the second road - two lanes will be available towards Żoliborz, and only one towards Mokotów.

The capital city hall informs that the detours will lead along the Łazienkowski Bridge or the Poniatowski Bridge to Wał Miedzeszyński, along the Szczeciński and Hel Coasts towards the Gdańsk Bridge. You can also avoid the difficulties by driving through Sanguszki, Konwiktorska, Muranowska, Andersa and Marszałkowska to Aleje Jerozolimskie, and then exiting the Poniatowski Bridge viaduct to Wisłostrada.

Ursus and Ochota are also under renovation

New asphalt will also appear on Kościuszki Street in Ursus. The works will start on Friday at 8 p.m. and end on Monday at 4 a.m.

The section from the roundabout with Cierlicka to Dzieci Warszawy will be closed.

The detour was marked through the following streets: Spisaka, Kompania AK "Kordian", Pużaka and Sławka. Bus lines 129, 187, 207 and 401 will also run on this route.

In Ochota, road workers will work on another section of Grójecka Street. From Friday, 20:00, the Grójecka road after the intersection with Banacha towards Narutowicza Square and the Banacha road from Wolna Wszechnica to Grójecka will be closed until Sunday evening.

The detours will lead along Dickensa, Białobrzeska and Kopińska or Pawińskiego and Dickensa streets. Bus lines 136, 172, 186, 191, N01, N38 and N88 will undergo detours.

Rembertów and Praga-Południe: further difficulties

On Friday at 10 p.m. the entire Aleja Sztandarów will be closed from Thursdays to Rondo Fieldorfa "Nila". The work will be completed on the night from Monday to Tuesday.

During this time, you will only be able to access the property via the avenue, and detours will lead through Kadrowa and Czerwonaków streets. Buses from line 115 will run on these routes.

On Saturday, from 7:00 a.m., road workers will return to Rondo Wiatraczna. This stage of work will last until mid-September. The left and middle lanes at the roundabout will be closed, and drivers will not be able to cross the tracks from Wiatraczna straight to the roundabout and from the roundabout from Aleja ONZ to Grochowska towards Targowa.

On Wiatraczna, from Zakole Street to the roundabout, there will be only one lane. Leaving Wiatraczna will only be possible to the right, towards Targowa.

Public transport on detours

The changes will also affect public transport passengers. According to the Public Transport Authority, buses of many lines - including: 123, 125, 141, 142, 143, 145, 148, 173, 183, 188, 521, 523, 702, 704, 720, 722, 730, N03 and N24 - will take changed routes.
