From my point of view: most building and development were stopped or stuck, so prices of flats skyrocketed and infrastructure was not maintained.

Part of reason was overreaction to the mayor who built the tunnel - the construction was overpriced and took 10 times the time it should, so mayors after him were afraid to invest too much in infrastructure at all. Which had negative effects in bridges falling apart, and city being in permanent traffic jam.

My other point of view: I used to be active member of Czech Pirate Party years ago when it was small, and it is still a little funny and frightening to me at the same time that those people will be responsible for city of 1 million people. But, what's the worse that can happen...



Well it will be hard for him as reconstruction of Barrandov bridge should start within 2 years. It's major road for transit in/around Prague.
