Vilnius burned in the rain. The capital of the country was plunged throughout the country by the storm.

Antakalnis and Iron Wolf streets are now closed, cars can not pbad, traffic stops, some people report missing power.

A new bike path is located in Antakalnis, P. Vileišio Street. German scientist Marius Kucinskas informed Alfa.lt, that the possible signal of subsidence was handed over to city administrators in April. He then informed the programmer "Tvarkau Vilniu" that in this place there will be a gutter that will wash the bike over time. And on May 8 received a response from the traffic organization department that the order to liquidate the emergent landing was transferred to Yit Infra Lietuva, the company responsible for the streets of Antakalnis .

Nowadays, managers are already waiting for much bigger work. The planning is that the work will be done during the night, but traffic in this place will be limited also on Saturday

Dovilė Lisauskaitė, a representative of the Vilnius Municipality's company "Grinda", advised residents, if possible, not to go from home or to avoid critical places. These are Iron Wolf, Grunwald, Millennium, Narbut, Verkiai and Kareiviai streets.

"Shilo Street has been taken care of, the crews have gone to the critical points of the capital, they are monitoring the situation.If the water level rises dangerously, the traffic will be closed.Residents are invited to avoid going on the ground if they can not go, if necessary, to avoid critical areas ", – said D.
