Drug addicts move from the main railway station to the city

The necessary reconstruction of the main railway station in Prague has already started. The station will be reconstructed to become an attractive place for shopping, spending a free time and pleasant travelling. But the reconstruction has already brought some negative affects: drug addicts moved from the main station to the city.

The main railway station was a place with a high number of drug addicts, prostitutes and homeless people. With the reconstruction they come back where they used to be before – near the metro stations, especially Flora, Muzeum, Mustek, I.P.Pavlova, namesti Miru or Karlovo namesti.

Prague, as any other big cities, attracts drug addicts for its anonymity, easy accessibility of drugs and money. There are about 8 – 10 thousand drug addicts in Prague.
