Over the past few weeks, we have been reviewing the new plan with our clients and evaluating its impact on their projects and properties. It is quite easy to find yourself in a situation where a tram loop is built across the street without you even knowing about it. The Metropolitan Plan is the biggest change for Prague in the last decade. It will replace the original land-use plan from 1999 and introduce entirely new rules for building permits.
Height limits
In many locations, there is a drastic reduction in permissible building heights.
Public infrastructure projects
The new plan designates locations for tram loops, schools, parks, and other public infrastructure.
Developable areas
The redefinition of developable areas can change what you can and cannot build on your land.
Following the publication of the revised proposal, the first repeated public hearing took place on November 19, with a second one to follow on November 26.
The plan is fully digital, allowing you to display various map layers, which makes working with it significantly easier. You can view areas designated for development, transport infrastructure, and a map regulating building heights. This makes it easy to find out if the changes will affect you.
You have until December 3, 2025, to submit comments, statements, and objections to the Metropolitan Plan proposal. After this date, it will no longer be possible to influence the changes. The Metropolitan Plan is most likely to be issued in the autumn of 2026.
We can quickly assess how specific changes will affect you and find the best strategy to defend your interests. If the changes affect your rights, we will prepare comments and objections to ensure they have a real chance of success. We have experience with administrative courts at all levels, including the Supreme Administrative Court.
The Prague Metropolitan Plan is a fundamental change for the capital city. For developers, investors, and landowners, it can mean both new opportunities and risks.
The deadline is December 3, 2025. After this date, it will no longer be possible to influence the changes.
If you own land in Prague or are planning a project, now is the right time to check whether the proposal introduces changes you didn't account for – info@endors.cz.
