Two Prague Metro Stations Shut for a Year – What You Need to Know

Starting Monday, January 6, Prague will face significant metro service restrictions, with two stations closing for extensive renovations.

Pankrác on Line C and Českomoravská on Line B will be shut down for approximately a year, impacting thousands of daily commuters.

Pankrác Station: A Year-Long Closure for Line D Connection

The Pankrác station will close for 12 months to facilitate the integration of the newly constructed Line D.

To compensate, tram line 19—recently extended to the shopping center near Pankrác—will provide an alternative route. This tram connects Pankrác to the nearby Pražského povstání metro station, offering commuters a convenient detour.

Českomoravská Station: Reconstruction Near O2 Arena

The Českomoravská station near the O2 Arena will be reconstructed for the next 11 months. Passengers are advised to utilize surface transport alternatives from the Vysočanská metro station.

Bus routes will connect key stops, including Poliklinika Vysočany, Divadlo Gong, and the Českomoravská bus interchange.

Transport Adjustments During O2 Arena Events

For events at the O2 Arena, Prague’s public transport authority plans to strengthen surface transport lines. Despite this, travelers are encouraged to walk from the Vysočanská station to avoid potential delays.
