R1 Expressway (Czech Republic)
D0 motorway ( cs, Dálnice D0), formerly R1 expressway ( cs, Rychlostní silnice R1), or Prague Ring Road ( cs, Pražský okruh), also called the outer ring road, is a motorway in the Czech Republic. It is an outer ring of Prague and its first segment was opened in the 1980s. There is also an inner Prague Municipal Ring Road, which is still under construction as well. 40 km, from the planned length 80 km, are in operation. Two disjunct sections are opened to the public, one going all the way from the Ruzyně Airport to the interchange with the D1 highway, the other one being a road on the eastern border of Prague. A section connecting these two segments is to be built next. Other segments under preparation include a controversial bridge over the Vltava river near Suchdol, with locals proposing the road to be built in a less inhabited location to the north.

Komořany
Komořany (german: Komoran) is a former village which is now a cadastral subdivision of the municipal district of Prague 12. History Komořany was recorded in 1088 as "Comoraz", a settlement belonging to the Vyšehrad Chapter.

Other records indicate that the land (or parts of it) was owned by Wenceslas II (until 1304), the Scholastic Dobeš (until 1332), the Zbraslav monastery (until 1436), George of Poděbrady until 1470)) and Václav Šturm of Hyršfeldu (who added the title ''seat'' to the village, after 1589). In 1638 it became the property of the Zbraslav monastery. In 1785, however, the Zbraslav monastery was closed, and Komořany devolved to the secular trust, which sold the Komořany chateau, grounds and sheepfold to the Prince of Oettingen-Wallerstein 40 years later.
