“We investigate why the municipal infrastructure to which S8 is connected has not received any water. S8 is designed to accommodate the current amount of precipitation, Tobiasz Bocheński, the Voivode Mazowieckie, wrote on Twitter.
This situation should absolutely not happen. We will demand an explanation from President Rafał Trzaskowski
announced the governor.
After the flooding of the S8 route near Żoliborz, traffic problems arise on a stretch of more than 30 kilometers. As reported by GDDKiA, there is no traffic in both directions on the section between Wisłostrada interchange and Marymoncka interchange. The route is expected to be blocked for several hours.
Between the viaduct, ul. Mickiewicz and the coast of Gdynia due to heavy rainfall, the S8 route was flooded. Traffic in both directions is blocked. Diversions are organized
This is reported by KSP. All accesses to the route are also disabled.
The Road Traffic Department works on site.
Traffic on the transit road is completely shut down in the direction of Poznań. On the other hand, the auxiliary road can only be used to Wisłostrada. In the direction of Białystok, traffic is diverted via detours along ul. Powązkowska and ul. Broniewski
– reported Sub-Insp. Sylwester Marczak of the police station in the capital.
Trzaskowski “monitors”
The mayor of the capital has already pointed out the situation.
We are constantly monitoring the situation related to heavy rain in Warsaw. I have received reports from our services, we have about 30 floodplains on the roads, we also receive reports of flooded basements. I have regularly ordered the water to be pumped out. I have also instructed the services to increase supervision and monitoring on roads and along waterways. There are no major traffic problems, except for the S8 stretch, which is managed by GDDKiA and the road authority is responsible for its condition and passability
– assured Rafał Trzaskowski, mayor of Warsaw.
Water from the S8 route is drained via gravity outflow to retention reservoirs below the route. From there it is pumped to the municipal collector. It is not yet known where the spill occurred. Gravity outflows are unobstructed
– said Małgorzata Tarnowska, spokeswoman for the Warsaw branch of GDDKiA.
There are also problems in other parts of Warsaw. The reports concern almost all districts of Warsaw, as well as Piastów, Pruszków and Michałowice.
