This year, the subjects participating in the national project “Infrastructure for Life” plan to build, reconstruct, repair, including major repairs, about 26 thousand km of roads. This was reported by Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin.
“Last year, we successfully completed the implementation of the national project “Safe High-Quality Roads”, the new national project – “Infrastructure for Life” – became the successor to its best initiatives. In 2025, the road works program included 26 thousand km of the federal, regional and local road network of the country. As before, we will pay special attention to updating social routes to medical, educational, sports institutions. Another important aspect of the work is the phased renewal of sections of the backbone network of highways. All these efforts are aimed at improving the quality of life of the population and the socio-economic development of the regions and the country as a whole,” said Marat Khusnullin.
Transport Minister Roman Starovoit emphasized that the national project “Infrastructure for Life” is one of the key instruments for achieving the national development goals of the country, defined by President Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin. “Russian road workers face ambitious challenges and tasks. In particular, in 2025, in order to achieve the national project indicators, it is planned to repair, reconstruct and build 21 thousand km of roads on the regional and local network under all road activity programs. For these purposes, the national project provides funding in the amount of 586.2 billion rubles, of which 339.2 billion are federal budget funds,” said Roman Starovoit.
The national project “Infrastructure for Life” provides for large-scale measures, including the renovation of federal highways of Rosavtodor and roads under the trust management of the state company “Avtodor”.
“In 2025, it is planned to repair, including major repairs, over 4.5 thousand km of federal highways on the network subordinate to Rosavtodor. Of these, about 200 km will be converted to four-lane design. In addition, it is planned to complete the construction and reconstruction of sections with a total length of 150.6 km. By the end of 2025, the share of federal highways in normal condition should be at least 72.9%,” said the head of the Federal Road Agency, Roman Novikov.
In most of the subjects participating in the national project, road works have already begun. Thus, in the Republic of Dagestan, a 19-kilometer section of the Buynaksk-Kizilyurt highway is being repaired, which provides transport links between the settlements of the Buynaksk district and municipal districts located in the mountainous part with Makhachkala. In the Kizilyurt district of Dagestan, a section of the Kizilyurt-Kostek highway from the 0th to the 10th km is being repaired. This road plays a key role in providing communication between the settlements of the district and the cities of Kizilyurt, Makhachkala and Khasavyurt, and also provides access to the federal highway R-217 “Kavkaz”. In total, in the Republic of Dagestan, under the national project this year, work will be carried out at 24 sites of the regional and local road network with a total length of more than 141 km.
In the Amur Region, a section of the Blagoveshchensk-Svobodny highway (from the 83rd to the 90th km) is being repaired. The highway is part of the country’s backbone network, connecting the regional center and the international airport of Blagoveshchensk with the Vostochny Cosmodrome and the city of Svobodny, where the largest gas chemical projects in Russia are currently being implemented. This year, road works under the national project “Infrastructure for Life” are planned in the region at 38 sites with a total length of almost 86 km.
The Arkhangelsk Region is repairing the Arkhangelsk-Belogorsky-Pinega-Kimzha-Mezen highway. It is part of the backbone network and provides transport links between the settlements of the Primorsky, Kholmogorsky, Pinezhsky, Leshukonsky and Mezensky districts and the regional center. This year, repair work will be carried out on three sections with a total length of more than 50 km. In total, in 2025, thanks to the national project “Infrastructure for Life”, the Arkhangelsk Region plans to bring 169.65 km of the road network and 10 bridge structures up to standard.
