START OF THE WORK AS PART OF THE MODERNIZATION OF THE FORMER POWER PLANT ON WESTERPLATTE

In connection with the modernization of the former Power Plant building, work related to the construction of a temporary slab road on the Westerplatte peninsula (section D-E on the attached drawing) has started.

In addition, next week, the Contractor will start setting up a concrete partition along the existing pedestrian route, which is to separate pedestrian traffic from road traffic (section C-D on the attached drawing). The traffic route will also be properly marked to ensure the safety of pedestrians.

More information on the modernization of the former power plant building including land development on plots no. 3/5, 68 and 25/2 on Westerplatte is available under the entry on the Museum website.
