Construction Permit Granted for Transport Upgrades in Vilnius
Construction Permit for Infrastructure Project Near Akropolis
The Vilnius City Municipality has recently issued a significant construction permit for the improvement of transport infrastructure in the vicinity of the Akropolis Vingis complex. This anticipated project aims to enhance traffic flow and safety at the intersection of Gerosios Vilties and Geležinio Vilko streets, contributing to the overall development of the area.
Gabriel? Sapon, the CEO and Board member of Akropolis Group, expressed her optimism about this project, stating, "We have reached a crucial milestone with the issuance of this construction permit. As we progress with the development of Akropolis Vingis, we are carefully updating our project budget and exploring financing options to support this transformative initiative. We are committed to keeping the public informed about any significant updates that arise during this journey."
Enhancements for Traffic and Safety
The ongoing infrastructure improvement project on Gerosios Vilties and Geležinio Vilko streets is set to dramatically transform how vehicles and pedestrians navigate this key intersection. Plans include the construction of a roundabout at the intersection's entry point, alongside an underground car entrance and a modern pedestrian and cyclist crossing designed to improve safety and convenience.
Once these enhancements are completed, this intersection is expected to facilitate smooth traffic flow for all users, including pedestrians, cyclists, and motorists. The new underground crossing will provide a direct connection between Naujamiestis and Vingis Park, further promoting alternative transportation methods.
Three Complementary Infrastructure Projects
While the Akropolis Vingis complex is under development, related traffic infrastructure projects are concurrently being planned. A total of three improvement initiatives have been designed, focusing on the streets surrounding the Akropolis Vingis, including Eiguli?, Geležinio Vilko, and M. K. ?iurlionio streets. These projects are being executed with guidance and input from municipal experts to ensure they meet community needs.
Design proposals for two of these projects received public consultation in January 2023, with approvals finalized in the spring of that year. The Vilnius City Municipality also granted a separate construction permit for the Eiguli? street project, with further enhancements scheduled for the other streets in May 2025.
Progress On Related Projects
Construction on some components of the traffic infrastructure improvements is already underway, specifically along Eiguli? street, which is strategically located near the integrated developments of Akropolis Vingis and adjacent residential units being developed by the Galio Group.
Notably, all infrastructure improvement efforts are funded by the developers of the Akropolis Vingis project. A critical aspect of these developments is that the multifunctional complex will only receive operational permits after the completion of all related infrastructure projects, ensuring a comprehensive and seamless integration into the existing transport network.
A Vision for Akropolis Vingis
The Akropolis Vingis complex, poised to emerge from what was previously an industrial area, promises a vibrant mix of shopping, leisure, and entertainment centered around a concert hall capable of accommodating up to 2,500 seated or 4,000 standing guests. Additional facilities will include a modern food hall, a conference center, a multiplex cinema, as well as residential apartments available for long-term leasing, with ample parking spaces catering to approximately 4,500 vehicles.
This area will inherently prioritize pedestrian and cyclist traffic, boasting new pathways designed for leisurely enjoyment. Rooftop recreational areas are also planned, allowing visitors to unwind and take in the surrounding views. The development strives to create a welcoming environment for all members of the community.
