All Saints' Day urban management measures

Overview

Cities in Lithuania and Poland are implementing various measures to manage traffic and public transit during the All Saints' Day and All Souls' Day period.

In Vilnius, authorities have introduced traffic restrictions and increased public transport services to handle visitor influxes. Specific prohibitions on parking and stopping have been established near several cemeteries, including Rokantiškės, Karveliškių, Kairėnai, and Saltoniškių. Traffic diversions and one-way restrictions are planned for certain areas to mitigate congestion near cemetery entrances.

In Łódź, the City Council passed a resolution to provide free public transportation, including buses and trams, on November 1. Mayor Hanna Zdanowska stated the initiative aims to “prioritize visiting loved ones over concerns regarding tickets or parking,” with the goal of encouraging collective transport to reduce heavy traffic and parking shortages near necropolises.
