Warsaw to invest millions into Vistula surroundings

The Warsaw City Hall has earmarked PLN 155 million on investments into infrastructure in the direct vicinity of the Vistula river, Warsaw mayor Hanna Gronkiewicz-Waltz said at a press conference on Sunday, as reported by TVN24. The money will be spent on the construction of boulevards on embankments, sports facilities, beaches and bicycle pathways, the mayor said. She stressed the unique nature of the Vistula bank in Warsaw. Marek Piwowarski, the city hall's plenipotentiary for Vistula issues, said that PLN 90 million out of the whole sum would be spent on restoring existing boulevards.
