3. 5. 2017

The long-awaited construction of a parking lot for patients and visitors of the Hořovice hospital has already begun. The new car park will meet the latest requirements for barrier-free use. It will have approximately two hundred parking spaces. Its existence will solve the difficult traffic situation in the vicinity of the hospital. The final shape of the car park can be seen in the visualisation below.

The new car park is being built on land provided to the hospital by the town of Hořovice. Plans for its construction had to be revised several times due to lengthy approval procedures and extensive changes to the project documentation.

"Currently, work is underway on the "Česlovna" building, including connection to all utilities, for which the pavement under the road has already been completed," describes the progress of work on the car park Ing. Pavel Staňa. On the land where the new car park will stand, the greenery has already been cut down and now the earthworks are underway. "There are some difficulties with the relocation of cables, but we are currently resolving contractual issues. After the cables have been reloaded, the retaining wall will be built", adds Ing. Staňa.

The proposed car park will be accessible from the local road K nemocnice. It will have one entrance and exit and its capacity will be 208 parking spaces. "The construction budget is around CZK 15 million," says Ing. Sotirios Zavalianis, the owner of the hospital in Horovice, who assures that the car park will be put into operation later this year.

According to Ing. Ondřej Nesměrák, the designer of the car park, a parking system with barriers will be installed on the access road. The internal two-way road is designed to be six metres wide. The construction layer of the car park will consist of asphalt, the pavements will be made of interlocking paving.

"The car park will also have a standard number of parking spaces for vehicles of people with reduced mobility and reserved spaces for mothers with prams. Other parking spaces are designed in the basic dimensions of 5.0 m x 2.5 m," added Ing. Nesměrák.
