  • Motorists leader Klára Sovová says Prague could build many apartments and complete its inner ring road in the coming years.
  • She says ministers Oto Klempíř and Igor Červený could help the city obtain permits from heritage and environmental authorities.
  • Sovová argues that officials should be motivated and that a building-permit application should end with a building permit.

Prague has a rare opportunity to launch major apartment construction and finish its inner ring road, according to Klára Sovová, the leader of the Motorists party.

She says the city could receive help from Motorists ministers Oto Klempíř and Igor Červený when it seeks permits from heritage and environmental authorities. Sovová presents the ministers as a way to overcome the approvals needed for large projects.

Her proposal centers on changing the approach inside the public administration. “Officials need to be motivated and people who want to build need to be put there,” she says. She adds that a building-permit application should end with a building permit.

Sovová made the comments in an interview with iDNES.cz, framing the next few years as a chance for Prague to move ahead with housing and transport construction.

Officials need to be motivated and people who want to build need to be put there. A building-permit application should end with a building permit.
