Minibuses in the centre of Prague

The council in the centre of Prague plans to establish a new means of transport – minibuses. The reason for that is that people in the centre of Prague have to walk quite far to the nearest stops of public transport. It is therefore meant mainly for older and disabled people. However, the minibuses will not appear in Prague streets before the next year.

22 people can fit in one minibus, a half of them standing and a half of them sitting. The minibuses will have barrier-free access. The exact routes are not certain yet, but they will be in less crowded streets. The city discuss these 5 routes:

1. around Wenceslas Square (Mustek – Museum – Opletalova street)
2. around streets Na Prikope, Celetna and Rytirska
3. around the Jewish Quarter, Marianske namesti, Old Town Square, Narodni trida
4. around Lesser Town and Vlasska street
5. around Opletalova street, Main station and Florenc
