In my proposal I am exploring how to improve the public space of Husitská Street, how and where to connect it to Vítkov? What expression should the individual spaces have? I am arranging Husitská Street in a profile that suits zone 30. Cycling traffic can thus merge into one lane with car traffic and pedestrians, who are currently usurped of space, will get a larger area to move around. The intersections that connect the parallel streets with Husitská Street are raised to the level of the pavement, thus creating a slowing threshold, and the paving with granite blocks visually connects the secondary streets with the main street, this element is based on the system of Žižkov squares, which are visually connected to Vítkov, thus emphasizing these axes.
