Lobnya Bypass, Moscow Region

Construction and reconstruction of bypasses of populated areas allow to create alternative routes for transit transport. Over the six years of the national project “Safe High-Quality Roads”, 39 bypasses have been built and reconstructed. This was reported by Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin.

“In road activities, we pay great attention to the construction of bypasses around populated areas. Such roads help to significantly relieve cities and towns from transit transport, and also improve the environmental situation there. This undoubtedly has a positive effect on the quality of life of people and increases the efficiency of transport communications in the regions. From 2019 to 2024 inclusive, 39 bypasses were built and reconstructed under the national project “Safe High-Quality Roads”. This work will continue, including under the new national project “Infrastructure for Life”. By 2030, on the instructions of the President of Russia, it is planned to build more than 50 bypasses around populated areas,” said Marat Khusnullin.

Bypass roads solve a number of important social and economic problems.

“In 2024, eight bypass sections were put into operation on the federal road network of Rosavtodor, their total length was 367.7 km. In particular, a bypass was built around five settlements (Isametovo, Verkhneyarkeevo, Layashty, Ishkarovo and Asyanovo) on the M-7 Volga highway in the Republic of Bashkortostan. Thanks to such facilities, a number of important tasks are solved: they allow transit transport to leave the boundaries of the settlement, and drivers can get to their destination faster. Bypass roads help reduce the risk of accidents and, importantly, improve the environmental situation in the settlement itself. In addition, the construction of such facilities can stimulate the development of adjacent territories, creating new opportunities for business,” said Transport Minister Roman Starovoit.

A great deal of work on the construction and reconstruction of bypasses around populated areas is also being carried out on the regional road network.

“In 2024, four sections of bypass roads around populated areas were put into operation, which is almost 135 km. In addition, construction and installation work has been completed on several more bypass roads: traffic on them has already opened, the facilities will be put into operation this year. The implementation of such large-scale projects became possible thanks to the effective work of the road workers’ team, as well as the constructive interaction of federal and regional authorities. It is this approach that allows us to successfully solve problems of improving the quality of life of people,” said Igor Kostyuchenko, Deputy Head of the Federal Road Agency.

In 2024, the construction of the third stage of the northern bypass of Lobnya – a roundabout on Rogachevskoye Highway – was completed in the Moscow Region. The length of the facility is 1.5 km, the total length of the northern bypass of Lobnya is 16.5 km. There are six traffic lanes, the capacity of the highway is over 120 thousand cars per day.

In 2024, the Republic of Mordovia opened traffic on the second stage of the Ruzayevka bypass (4.1 km). It became one of the connecting links to ensure non-stop high-speed communication in the advanced development area. The road allows connecting two important transport arteries of the republic – the federal highway R-158 and the regional Saransk – Ruzayevka. The bypass significantly reduces the travel time of residents, and also takes the transit freight flow outside the city.
