A day without a car in Warsaw
On Saturday, in the capital city, everyone can use free transport in two zones. In addition, until the end of the day, everyone can also use the free entrance to the P + R car park. The Warsaw Commuter Railway also joined the action and informed that regardless of the route and travel time, the journeys are free of charge.
