Restoration of the historic gates of the Popowice Depot [WBO. 2023]

The project involves the restoration of the entrance gates in the historic halls of the Popowice Depot, which have not been repaired since the early 1990s. Their construction has been deformed, the varnish has flaked, and some cannot even be effectively closed. The gates must be dismantled, their structure repaired, the defects repaired, re-painted and re-fitted. The pillars between the gates and the gate mountings, made of steel, also need maintenance (old layers of paint need to be removed, maintained and possibly reinforced). As a result, the aesthetics of the public space would be improved, and the safety of the historic trams and buses stored in the halls, the oldest of which date back to the late 19th century, would be increased.
