Risers at Vinařská and Bří. Žůrků to be renovated
The risers must be replaced due to their age and condition which, at this point, could lead to serious technical problems.
The challenging renovation will force the dormitory to cease operations on 1 June. “These renovations will affect approximately 800 students. All of them have been informed during the academic year, and their contracts of accommodation expire on 31 May. We also offered all students an alternative in the form of other dormitories, as long as capacities last. Here we are ready for further communication with interested parties. However we assume that, at the end of May, there will be enough beds for everyone interested,” says Head of Residence Management Renata Pavlicová, adding that students wishing to stay until the end of June will find accommodation at A1 where the originally planned renovation was rescheduled for next year due to its complexity.
Major projects for the next two years include the overall renovation of the Sladkého dormitory in Komárov in several stages. The completion of the current Vinařská dormitory complex is included in the short-term development plan as well. The project anticipates the construction of two or three blocks which, when finished, could offer 600 beds. Included in the long-term development plan is the construction of a student and community housing project in the Bohunice campus with a capacity of over 1,000 beds. These should be offered to students with the possibility also for university employees, especially beginning academics, researchers or post-docs.
