With all of that mess, the so called Po...Gentlemen. With all of that mess, the so called <i>Południowa Obwodnica Warszawy</i>, it reminds me some toughness, “benedictine”, long-lasting works while a swimming pool at my former primary school was constructed during more than decade. A story is, that at the edge of 1978 and ’79, as I only transferred to the newly-opened primary school (No. 301) at the Varsovian Jelonki, me and my peers have heard about projects of a construction of a closed-to school building swimming pool (nearby a gym hall). And some of works were begun at the end of the 70.s All the time, during my attendance at that school, at each of opening of a school year, me and my peers have heard from the school authorities, as for not long and just that pool has to be opened and as how me and my peers would be able to swim there. Meanwhile, the Solidarity Movement has appeared, then the Martial Law, and then the Jaruzelski’s dark decade. Works were proceed, proceed, proceed with no hurry… At the mid of 80.s me and my peers had time to finish our primary education and just simply graduate. But through all of that time we have heard solid authorities’ assurances about some of opportunities for us to swim at that pool. And, as I only remember properly that pool was opened at a second half of the 80.s, as just only for… its “technical” closing. I do remember, as how a massive and loud propaganda it accompanied with. You know, a representative orchestra, some of picnics, press and television coverage, officials empty talks, and all of that celebration. And as only ribbon has being cut and all of us were happy to have the pool opened, then on the next day there was announced that the pool is to be closed due to some of the technical works, fixings and so on. Laughingly, at the back of the pool, during that celebration, it was possible to hear and see as how technicians and workmen were still working inside as if nothing happened then, not bothering with an opening ceremony. As I only remember properly, that pool was opened for good at the beginning of the 90.s. And I’m almost sure about this if not mistaken. More then less two decades of the dreams coming true. This is why I’m rather skeptic about the POW’s constructing progress. When, it has to be closed due to some of the “technical” (whether “technological”) works? Sorry for some of lexical and grammar mistakes, as I’ve not used English for a long time.Marcinnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2650609952674727820.post-27116555193096907042013-07-14T14:05:10.315+02:002013-07-14T14:05:10.315+02:00@ student

Then traffic will be re-organised and the four lanes will run under the western span of the viaduct. In short, I'd put my money on six lanes by September.Michael Dembinskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05657728002439035765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2650609952674727820.post-1745602705759621152013-07-14T13:31:10.561+02:002013-07-14T13:31:10.561+02:00Michael,

The other story is whether the builders meet the deadline.<br /><br />I'll let you know whether the "nagging nightmare" is as dreadful as you fear. If so, I have alternative routes anyway.student SGHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01367244307612092688noreply@blogger.com
