Over 200 km of federal highways will be built and reconstructed in 2022
Work is planned at 24 sites in 18 regions of the Russian Federation as part of the implementation of the national project "Safe Quality Roads".
In November of this year, the reconstruction of the section of the highway R-257 "Yenisei" from the 389th to the 397th km within the borders of the Republic of Khakassia will be completed.
The commissioning of this facility will increase the capacity of the segment of the highway to 20 thousand cars per day, which is twice higher than the existing indications.
The project provides for increasing the category of the road to the first by widening the carriageway from two to four lanes. Construction of the overpass over the regional road Ust-Abakan - Chernogorsk instead of roundabouts will allow sharing of traffic flows with the federal highway at different levels. Work on the construction of the bridge has already been completed: the levelling and protective layers of the bridge roadbed have been laid.
The overall readiness of the facility is currently 90%.
Half of the planned amount of work was carried out on the reconstruction of a 7-kilometre section of the M-5 "Ural" highway in the Tuymazinsky district of the Republic of Bashkortostan (km 1336 – km 1344).
Specialists are completing the reconstruction of engineering communications, the construction of the roadbed and the layers of pavement of the main course of the highway. Currently, an overpass is being built as part of a transport interchange at the 1338th km.
In addition, the specialists will expand the section from 1336th to 1344th km from two to six traffic lanes (three in both directions) with bringing the road parameters to the standards of the IB category. Also, road builders will build one transport interchange.
The implementation of this project will increase the capacity of the federal road. Traffic flows will be separated into different levels and continuous communication will be provided between the settlements of Kandra and Sairanovo, as well as the possibility to exit and enter the federal highway.
Along the entire length of the section, the road builders will install lighting, bus stops, barrier fencing and road signs.
The commissioning of the facility is scheduled for October of the current year.
Another facility that will be put into operation in 2022 is the construction site of the highway R–255 "Siberia" Novosibirsk – Kemerovo – Krasnoyarsk – Irkutsk km 1524 – km 1537.
The construction of a section of the II technical category with the total length of more than 14 km will eliminate the railway crossing, bypass the settlements of Traktovoye and Tulyushka, increase the traffic capacity, improve transport and operational indicators of the road section.
As part of the project, it is planned to build an overpass over the Moscow – Vladivostok railway, a bridge over the Ili River, a roundabout near the exit to the village of Ukhovsky, as well as five bus stops and a parking area.
The current technical readiness of this facility is 55%.
