Public gatherings and marches planned in Warsaw’s Śródmieście from Friday to Sunday will cause street closures and detours for public transportation.
Friday, April 10th
Around noon, a gathering will commence in front of the Presidential Palace, scheduled to conclude at 10:00 PM. During this time, bus lines 116, 128, 175, 178, 180 and 503 may be diverted via Marszałek Józef Piłsudski Square and Senatorska Street.
A second public assembly will begin at 2:30 PM on Three Crosses Square. Initially, access through the square and Aleje Ujazdowskie (from the intersection with Piękna Street and Nowy Świat to the General Charles de Gaulle Roundabout) will be blocked.
From 2:30 PM, bus line 108 will terminate at the Warszawa Powiśle station and return towards Ananasowa. Bus lines 116, 180 and 503 will detour via Aleje Jerozolimskie and Piękna Street, also experiencing route changes due to the Presidential Palace gathering. Bus lines 118 and 166 will be diverted through Piękna, Górnośląska, Myśliwiecka, and Rozbrat streets.
