Bridge crossing over the Ob River near the city of Surgut, Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug
Large-scale construction and reconstruction work on sections of the regional and local road network, as well as artificial structures, continues in the country’s regions. By the end of 2025, more than 300 such facilities are planned to be commissioned under all regional programs with federal funding, including more than 100 sections of roads, bridges and overpasses, thanks to the national project “Infrastructure for Life”. This was reported by Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin.
“Thanks to the construction and reconstruction of road facilities, the most important tasks of modernizing the country’s road network and regional development are being solved. New and renovated roads and bridges help connect remote settlements with regional centers, reduce travel time, and improve logistics. In order to achieve the indicators of the national project “Infrastructure for Life”, this year we plan to commission more than 300 regional and local construction and reconstruction facilities with a total length of more than 1.1 thousand km. These are transport interchanges, sections of main streets, bridges and overpasses,” said Marat Khusnullin.
Many large-scale projects are implemented over several road construction seasons.
“Today, construction and reconstruction work is being carried out in Russian regions on more than 260 road projects scheduled for commissioning this year. In the process of construction and installation work, contractors use the best engineering solutions and the latest materials. The professionalism of road and bridge builders, the competent organization of the production process allow us to hand over large-scale capital-intensive projects with unfailing quality and compliance with the planned work deadlines,” said Minister of Transport Roman Starovoit.
An important factor that directly influences the successful implementation of large projects is uninterrupted financing.
“Thanks to the support of the President and the Government of our country, unprecedented funding is being allocated for road activities. This year alone, about 150 billion rubles have been allocated for construction and reconstruction activities within the framework of the federal project “Regional and Local Road Network”, of which over 84 billion rubles are federal budget funds. This will allow us to carry out work at key road infrastructure facilities at an accelerated pace,” said Igor Kostyuchenko, Deputy Head of the Federal Road Agency.
Among the largest projects in 2025 is the construction of the Yuzhno-Lytkarinskaya Highway (YULA) in the Moscow Region. The project includes the construction of a 45-kilometer highway, as well as 64 artificial structures: 11 interchanges, 27 overpasses and 10 bridges. Among them is a bridge across the Moskva River with a length of 600 linear meters. As of today, the construction readiness of the facility is 49.6%.
The highway will provide direct access to settlements in the Lyubertsy, Lytkarino, Leninsky, Ramensky districts, as well as to the Domodedovo and Zhukovsky international airports, and will relieve the eastern part of the Moscow Ring Road by a third. And its integration with the Moscow road framework (South-Eastern and North-Eastern chords) will provide a direct connection with the international transport corridors “North-South” and “West-East”, as well as an exit to the M-12 “East”.
In the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug – Yugra, a second bridge crossing over the Ob River is being built near the city of Surgut. Its construction readiness is 70.9%. The large-scale infrastructure project includes, among other things, a four-lane bridge over the Ob River with a length of about 1.8 thousand linear meters. It is planned that the new bridge crossing will provide passage for about 13 thousand cars per day, will allow for the redistribution of traffic flows bypassing the city, and will also take on the main traffic load of two federal transport corridors: Tyumen – Surgut – Salekhard and Perm – Khanty-Mansiysk – Nizhnevartovsk – Tomsk.
Two road projects are being built in the Altai Republic. A bridge is being built across the Katun River in the Mayminsky District of the region. The project will connect the region with the Altai Territory and provide transport accessibility to the village of Podgorny. In the Chemalsky District, the Urlu-Aspak – Karakol highway is being built. Previously, 5.3 km of the highway were commissioned. This year, another 10 km are planned to be built under the national project “Infrastructure for Life”. The road leads to a group of seven picturesque mountain lakes in the north of the Altai Mountains. They are located on the western slope of the Iolgo Ridge, the watershed of the Biya and Katun Rivers, at the foot of the Bagatash Pass. The construction of the Urlu-Aspak – Karakol road will redistribute traffic flows, relieve the federal highway R-256 “Chuisky Tract” and ensure safe access to the Karakol Lakes.
