New Railway Tunnel to Cut Prague to Pilsen Journey to 45 Minutes

The Czech government has approved the next phase of one of its largest railway infrastructure projects: a new tunnel connecting Prague and Beroun. Construction is expected to begin in 2032, with completion scheduled for 2044. The 24.7-kilometre double-track tunnel will significantly shorten travel times on one of the country’s busiest rail corridors. Once completed, trains will travel between Prague-Smíchov station and Beroun in around 13 minutes, reducing the current journey time by more than 30 minutes. The project will also improve connections towards western Czechia and neighbouring Germany. The journey from Prague to Pilsen is expected to take approximately 45 minutes, while international rail services to Munich and Nuremberg will become faster and more reliable. New railway line designed for speeds of up to 200 km/h The planned railway route will include a new high-speed section designed for trains travelling at up to 200 km/h. The tunnel will begin near Prague-Smíchov station, pass beneath the Barrandov area, and emerge near Beroun. A separate connection on the Prague side is also planned, linking the new line with Braník Bridge and Prague-Krč. The additional infrastructure will improve connections within the capital while increasing capacity on the wider railway network. Construction preparation underway...

Future of Prague’s Výtoň Bridge Could Be Decided by the End of This Year

The Railway Administration (Správa železnic) is expected to decide on the future design of Prague’s Výtoň Railway Bridge by the end of this year. If the final plan is approved, construction could begin in 2028. The long-delayed project has become the centre of a dispute between transport authorities and heritage experts. While railway officials argue that a new three-track structure is necessary to meet future transport demands, conservationists continue to push for the preservation of the existing historic bridge. The Railway Administration has warned that the current condition of the bridge requires a final decision soon. Dispute over historic structure The main proposal currently under consideration is the construction of a new three-track railway bridge. Správa železnic selected a project team last year, but the plan remains controversial due to opposition from heritage authorities and groups seeking to preserve the original structure. The debate has also attracted international attention. UNESCO representatives are preparing a Heritage Impact Assessment (HIA), which will examine how the planned changes could affect Prague’s cultural heritage. The Transport Association supports the construction of a new bridge, arguing that rebuilding the existing structure would be more expensive and would not provide enough additional capacity. Construction could start...

Prague Compared to 11 European Cities: Housing, Jobs, Transport,

A new report from the Prague Institute of Planning and Development (IPR) compares life in Prague with 11 other European cities, following a typical resident’s day—from housing and commuting to work, education, and leisure. Based on verified data collected directly from partner cities, the study highlights both Prague’s strengths and its biggest challenges. Prague Has Some of Europe’s Least Affordable Housing The report found that Prague has the least affordable owner-occupied housing among the cities compared. Buying an apartment requires more than 13 years of gross salary, placing Prague alongside cities such as Barcelona, Munich, and Amsterdam. Unlike many Western European cities, Prague also lacks relatively affordable rental housing. Renting a 60-square-meter apartment costs around 40% of the average salary in Prague. By comparison, the same apartment would consume about 28% of average income in Munich and just 14% in Vienna. Strong Job Market, But Lower Incomes Prague continues to have one of the lowest unemployment rates in Europe, making it relatively easy to find work. However, real incomes remain below those of most Western European capitals. Workers in Munich earn roughly 50% more than those in Prague, while wages in cities such as Copenhagen have grown steadily over the...

Prague’s growing pizza scene gained international attention after four local restaurants were recognized in the 50 Top Pizza Europa 2026 guide.

The restaurant also holds certification from the Associazione Verace Pizza Napoletana, an organization that promotes traditional Neapolitan pizza-making standards. Prague’s recognition extended beyond a single restaurant. Three additional venues received the guide’s Excellent Pizzerias distinction, awarded to restaurants that consistently demonstrate outstanding quality. This year’s recipients are Da Pietro, Sasy The Original, and Diskotéka in Prague’s Dejvice district.   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Pizzeria Da Pietro Praha (@dapietropraha) Diskotéka is one of this year’s notable newcomers.

Czech Women Earn About CZK 109,000 Less Per Year Than Men

Czech women earn significantly less than men on average, with the annual difference estimated at CZK 109,000. New figures based on Eurostat data show the country’s gender pay gap remains above the EU average. Across the EU, employed women earn an estimated CZK 93,800 less annually than men on average. The European Trade Union Confederation (ETUC), which converted the hourly wage gap into annual earnings, estimates that the combined difference across the bloc amounts to more than CZK 8.65 trillion every year. Czech Republic exceeds the EU average According to Eurostat, women across the European Union earned 11.1% less per hour than men in 2024. In practical terms, women received CZK 88.90 for every CZK 100 earned by men. The figures cover companies with at least ten employees. Applying that methodology, the ETUC estimates that women in the Czech Republic earn roughly CZK 108,700 less per year than men, placing the country above the EU average. Only a handful of member states recorded larger estimated annual gaps. Finland ranked highest at around CZK 183,500, followed by Austria (CZK 165,600), Germany (CZK 146,200) and Sweden (CZK 123,600). At the opposite end of the scale, Luxembourg was the only EU country where...

Prague and Stockholm Launch Cross-Border Public Art Project

Visitors in Prague and Stockholm will soon be able to communicate across borders through a pair of interactive public art installations designed to exchange anonymous messages between the two cities. The linked installations, created by the Czech initiative Praho! project and its Swedish partner Stockholm! project, will open in Stockholm on August 20 and in Prague on August 31. The installations are designed as private spaces intended for one visitor at a time. After entering, participants answer a series of questions before listening to an authentic audio recording left by someone in the other city. They are then invited to record their own message, creating an ongoing exchange between residents and visitors in Prague and Stockholm. According to the project team, the concept explores what happens when anonymous thoughts become personal through the human voice. “The installation creates a space where you first listen to someone else—and only then can you speak,” the organizers said. “We want to explore how connecting two different cities through shared experiences can foster understanding.” The initiative is part of Art & Design Without Borders, an international collaboration supported by the Erasmus+ programme. The project brings together organizations from the Czech Republic and Sweden to...

Five Things to Know Before Flying From Prague Airport This Summer

Passengers departing from Prague Airport this summer are being advised to plan ahead as the airport prepares for its busiest travel season in years. To help travelers avoid unnecessary delays, the airport has released a list of practical recommendations covering transport, security screening, travel documents and baggage rules. Leave Extra Time to Reach the Airport The biggest challenge this summer is expected to be road access to the terminals. Construction at the Aviatická–Lipská intersection may cause traffic congestion on routes leading to the airport. Airport officials recommend using public transport whenever possible, as buses are not affected by the roadworks. Travelers arriving by car should allow extra time to reach the terminals, particularly during peak holiday periods. Self-Service Check-In Can Save Time Passengers can speed up the departure process by using the airport’s self-service facilities. Prague Airport now offers 31 check-in kiosks and 32 self-service baggage drop counters, available for flights operated by 18 participating airlines. Before heading to the airport, travelers should also verify the entry requirements for their destination. Those flying to the United Kingdom, for example, now need an Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA) before departure. Bring Physical Travel Documents Although many travelers rely on digital wallets and...
