More than 233 km of federal roads were put into operation after repair and reconstruction

In 2023, 26 facilities with a total length of 233.5 km were put into operation on the federal highway network as part of the construction and reconstruction, it was reported yesterday in Rosavtodor.

In the Aldan region of Yakutia, the reconstruction of the section from 752 to 762 km of the A-260 Lena highway has been completed: 11 km of the road have been converted to asphalt concrete. The reconstruction of 18 km of the Lena highway in the Amur Region was completed ahead of schedule. The new sections correspond to the parameters of the third category with two lanes, Rosavtodor clarified.

Also in 2024, work on the construction and reconstruction of the Southern Bypass of Ufa (1480–1494 km of the M-5 Ural highway) in the Republic of Bashkortostan was completed. The roadway was expanded from two to six lanes, artificial lighting was installed, seven artificial structures were built, and the bridge across the Yurmash River was reconstructed.

In the Murmansk region, the section from the 14th to the 19th km of the R-21 Kola road has been reconstructed. “Thanks to the commissioning of the site, a motor transport semi-ring around Murmansk has been finally formed and transport connections between the industrial zone and the highway network of the city and the entire region have been ensured,” explained Rosavtodor. In Primorye, a section of the A-370 Ussuri highway (305–335 km) was reconstructed with the construction of a new bypass for the village of Znamenka.

“All sections of federal highways put into operation are of high socio-economic importance both for individual regions and for ensuring the connectivity of the territory of our country,” noted Rosavtodor.
