The region of Służewiec, around Domaniewska street, is known as the biggest business district in Warsaw, outside of the city centre. Here are located all of the headquarters of big corporations, which are a place of work for over 100 000 people. Unfortunately the existing infrastructure is not sufficient for such a big amount of people travelling to work everyday in the same time. During the peak hours all of the streets there are blocked with cars and people stand in endless trafic jams. Also the amount of parking spaces is not enough for all of the offices which is resulting with wild parking on the places, where it is not allowed. Thanks to all of this the district is known in Warsaw as the "Mordor" - like the evil land from Tolkien's books. There were several protest and demonstrations from people living nearby, who are sufferring a lot because of all of the cars going in front of their windows. Nonetheless more office buildings are planned in this area, even though the communicaton problem is not solved.
