Fuel prices are expected to drop in the coming days, with diesel potentially falling by up to 3.50 CZK per liter. The decrease is credited to market forces rather than state intervention, which has so far failed to move the needle at the pump.
Political friction is centering on the ANO party as city officials threaten civil disobedience over its latest proposals. The party’s leadership is also facing questions about a million-crown investment into a low-rent municipal apartment, while an investigator in a multi-billion crown case has claimed he was ordered by his superiors to stop his work.
Prague has begun the search for a builder for the new Libuš metro station. The tender is valued at 3.76 billion CZK, though passengers will have to wait until 2032 to see the result.
