Water in the Blanka tunnel damaged cables worth hundreds of millions, opening will probably be postponed again
The cables were damaged by last year’s torrential rains and the tunnel’s damp environment, which the billion-dollar contracts with the technology contractor did not account for. The opening date of Prague’s Blanka tunnel complex is entering the realm of dreams. The city’s leadership had expected the complex to open this April. Now it has discovered that it has to replace kilometres of cables that have been destroyed by water. This will cost hundreds of millions of crowns more. This is according to an expert report commissioned by the city.
