The Aleja Wilanowska is an important Warsaw street thoroughfare passing through the west of the Vistula lying neighborhoods Mokotów and Wilanów leads. Its length is around 5,800 meters, on its last section (in Wilanów) it is the approximately 1,000 meters long end piece of the historic Warsaw Royal Wing .
Originally there was only a dirt road connecting Wilanów with the village of Służewiec (now part of Mokotów). Around 1775 this path was straightened, expanded and extended to today's Ulica Puławska . It was later extended to the crossing Ulica Wołoska . Until 1941, the section of road in Wilanów was known as Aleja Królewska . In 2009 and 2010, the road between Ulica Dolina Służewiecka / Aleja Generała Władysława Sikorskiego and Ulica Jana III Sobieskiego was expanded to include two lanes each. The Wilanowska is used by public transport buses on its entire route . It has two lanes throughout in every direction of travel.
Course and construction objects
The Wilanowska begins in the west as an extension of the Ulica Marynarska at the intersection with the Wołoska , and then leads approximately eastwards first through the district of Mokotów, crossing the Aleja Niepodległości , which merges here with the Ulica Puławska , leads at the level of the Dominican, built in 1936 -Cloister of St. Joseph down the Vistula embankment and from there straight on to the castle in Wilanów . In the second part, it crosses the heavily traveled, three-lane Dolina Służewiecka / Generała Władysława Sikorskiego at the foot of the Vistula embankment and connects - already in the Wilanów district - with Ulica Jana III Sobieskiego . Since 2010 there has been a crossing at this point due to the new construction of Aleja Rzeczypospolitej . With the Sobieskiego the historical Königsweg flows into the Belwederska .
Some of the smaller side streets (more like paths) have lost their vehicle connection to Wilanowska after street modernization and the renewal of the moats on the edge of Miasteczko Wilanów .
