  • Metro a Jeho Úloha V Pražské Dopravní Síti
    Metro a jeho úloha v pražské dopravní síti Bohumil Kubát, Martin Jacura, Martin Vachtl, Lukáš Týfa Katedra dopravních systémů v území České vysoké učení technické v Praze Fakulta dopravní e-mail: [email protected] (Kubát), [email protected] (Týfa) Abstrakt The first part of the contribution submitted deals with a thirty year-long history of the subway-service in the city of Prague, particularly from the traffic point of view – it notices the way how the gradual development of the subway network has been integrated into the structure of the city and mainly into the development of overground public transport. The aim of the second part is to advert to the advantage of subway for the public transport in the city of Prague. The third part presents an up-to-day shape of the Prague subway and also its perspective arrangements in the short- and long-term period including potential unconventional resolution of new lines. 1. Historie metra v Praze Historie pražské podzemní dráhy se začala psát koncem 19. století. Úvahy o podpovrchové dopravě se během času ubíraly různými směry – podpovrchovou tramvají počínaje a klasickým metrem konče. Za první pokus lze považovat návrh firmy V. J. ROTT z roku 1898, který prosazoval využití výstavby kanalizační sítě spolu s asanačními pracemi k realizaci podzemní dráhy o jedné větvící se trati. Toto řešení bylo ve své době silně nadčasové, a proto bylo zamítnuto. Další projekt předložil roku 1912 Bohuslav Vondráček, v němž řešil zejména spojení Starého Města a Nového Města podpovrchovou trasou elektrické dráhy. Ani tento návrh se však nesetkal s úspěchem.
