Access Permits
The biggest events in our city always come with changes to traffic organization and public transport. Some streets will be closed, and additional buses and trams will be running. All of this is to make it easier for residents to reach the event area and ensure a smooth return home.
Residents living on streets affected by traffic changes will be allowed to access their homes upon presenting an entry permit.
Permits will be available only between August 5–17 at the Permit Office located at ul. Jana z Kolna 6 (former Marine Station).
Permit issuing hours: 8:00 AM – 6:00 PM
