Will close traffic on the Communos Street in Paris
Will direct traffic elsewhere
The roundabout will appear at the intersection of the Communos and Malūnas Ponds streets in Paris.
Part of the work has already been completed, but works are still underway on the section of the Communos Street from Šilutė high to Kelmentoji Street.
It will take about two months to repair the stretch from Šilutė highway.
The works are carried out by Plungės Laguna.
Žydrūnas Vilnius, a spokesman for this company, said it would be difficult for workers to set up a roundabout at the intersection with Malūnas Pond Street as it would be small.
« Only five meters in diameter. Due to the safety and speed of the people themselves, we cannot leave two sides there. It is necessary to close the traffic, » said Ž. Vilnius.
The contractors promise not only to install a circular junction within two months, but also to pave the Paris Communos Street from the Liaduns to Šilutė highway.
The contractors claimed that if the weather would allow, they would do the work faster.

If you are not working – “head heads”
Kastytis Macijauskas, Director of the Department of Urban Development and Architecture of Klaipeda Municipality, heard that traffic from and to Malūnas Pond Street would be completely closed, asked the contractor’s representative how many employees the company had.
Ž. Vilnius replied that it was working for 30-40 employees.
« And if we don’t find 30-40 places when we arrive? We’ll cut our heads. That’s how you say? If you say you close the traffic completely, we will shorten the time to one month. We have examples when someone is doing something and three employees. I talk about it. »
We have examples of someone doing something and finding three employees when they arrive.
Aurelijus Jankauskas, Head of Klaipeda Road Police, was interested in how residents from Šilutė highway will have to be accessed on the Communos Street in Paris.
« One -sided traffic is to Šilutė highway, and traffic will remain a parallel street, » explained Ž. Vilnius.
Klaipeda Vice Mayor Algirdas Kamarauskas assured that there would be inconvenience.
« But it will be better for everyone when the street is tidy. Just ask the pace of the work to be maximum. We apologize to the population for the inconvenience.
Dicks and Taikos Avenue
The project provides that not only the driveway will be renovated, but also new sidewalks on both sides of the street will be renovated.
There will be a bicycle path next to it. The rainwater system will also be renewed and new lighting will be installed.
In a later stage, contractors will request only one -sided traffic on Paris Communos Street to Taikos Avenue, when the street from Šilutė highway will be paved.
The driveway will be formed at the expense of the sidewalk, as underground excavation will take place at that time.
There will also be special work at the intersection of Taikos Avenue, as the intersection center will have to dig the soil and connect the stormwater networks.
« There are infinitely a lot of engineering networks here. We will not be able to work underground because there is a threat to stop other networks. It will take a week, » said Ž. Vilnius.
The first changes in traffic will be after Easter.
