Łazienkowski bridge structure to be replaced

Instead of repairing, the whole structure of the Łazienkowski bridge will be replaced for PLN 100-130 million, Warsaw mayor Hanna Gronkiewicz-Waltz announced. According to the mayor, the structure will be replaced using existing pillars. The Łazienkowski bridge might be closed for traffic for a few or even several months due to the construction. The fire, which engulfed the bridge on Saturday, was extinguished after 12 hours. According to Polish broadcaster RMF FM, the fire was caused by arson.
