Meanwhile in Czech capital Prague, discussions continue over the Blanka Tunnel, which is due for completion in May 2014. The city authorities have now managed to reduce the final cost of building the tunnel to €1.42 billion. The project was originally expected to cost €1.025 billion but the price spiralled to €1.5 billion, causing some controversy.
