Work has been underway for more than ten years on a major planning document for Prague - the new zoning plan. Its elaboration has cost the capital city CZK 135 million so far, while the assessment and elaboration of changes cost CZK 181 million.

The new plan is also expected to unlock up to 15 areas where there is currently a building closure.
