The text is lovely - and a welcome change from what one expects from Poland's public administration. NARZEKAJ Zmieńmy Warszawę. Razem - "COMPLAIN Let's change Warsaw. Together." We, the citizens, are being asked to complain.
So let me complain about the lack of pavement on ul. Karczunkowska. Apart from the fact that at this time of year my trouser-legs and boots are caked in mud, it's the fact that I have to dice with death walking to the station or main road along a street with no pavement.
If the city authorities can't afford a pavement, at least can they put up a) clear speed limit signs on this road - the legal speed limit is 60kmh, but 50kmh would be nice; double white lines along all those sections where there's no pavement and pedestrians are forced to share asphalt with traffic, speed cameras and signs warning motorists of pedestrians (Piesi).
It is absolutely unacceptable to hurtle along this street, overtaking cars which in any case are exceeding the speed limit.
This time last year:
Czachówek's wild woods in winter
This time two years ago:
Vistula freezes over downstream of Warsaw
This time three years ago:
Twilight of the Ikars
This time four year ago:
Polish TV adverts for parapharmaceuticals
This time five years ago:
Jeziorki wetlands in winter
[light snowfall, temperature above zero]
This time six years ago:
A week into Lent
You have spurred me to action. I have written regarding the dangerous pedestrian crossing on the corner of Wiertnicza and Obornicka. The first crossing is not controlled by lights whilst 50 yards on the crossing outside MacDonalds is. Effect being that drivers fail to stop at the first crossing even when it is absolutely clear that they have to stop 50 yards on. To the point where the b..... will try to froce pedestrians off the crossing. I shall report what happens.
