In Russia, the implementation of a large-scale infrastructure project to build the M-12 “Vostok” high-speed highway to Yekaterinburg continues. Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin flew over the section under construction between the Republic of Tatarstan and the Sverdlovsk Region, and also held a meeting with representatives of the Federal Road Agency (Rosavtodor) and the state company “Avtodor”.

“The Russian construction industry is systematically working to improve the connectivity of the regions of our large country. Single routes, including high-speed ones, are being created from individual sections. The “Russia” transport route will stretch for approximately 12 thousand km from St. Petersburg to Vladivostok. It will include both existing highways and those built from scratch. One of them is the M-12 “Vostok” highway, the construction of which is being carried out on the instructions of the President. To extend the highway, the state company “Avtodor” is actively building a new 275 km Dyurtyuli – Achit section in the Republic of Bashkortostan, Perm Krai and Sverdlovsk Oblast. Having flown the route, I can say that the pace of work on extending the M-12 to Yekaterinburg is not bad. There was a delay for a number of reasons, including weather conditions. Last year there were heavy rains, the road was washed away in places, they could not deliver sand and gravel. But by the end of June we are determined to prepare the highway for opening,” the Deputy Prime Minister noted.

The Deputy Prime Minister added that work on extending the highway is in full swing. For example, the overall readiness of the first stage of the Dyurtyuli-Achit road in the Republic of Bashkortostan is more than 72%. Engineering networks are being built at the site, and 5,000 lighting poles and lamps have already been installed for the safe movement of drivers at night.

At the second stage, 31 artificial structures are being built in Perm Krai, including seven bridges, including a bridge across the Malaya Sarana River. In terms of height, it is comparable to an 8-story building (more than 24 m). At the third stage, two interchanges, seven overpasses and five bridges will be built in Sverdlovsk Oblast, including a bridge across the Bolshaya Sarana River with a length of 540 m.

After Yekaterinburg, the federal highway M-12 “Vostok” will be extended to Tyumen. At the meeting, Marat Khusnullin discussed the renewal of the Yekaterinburg-Tyumen section with representatives of the Federal Road Agency. Other topics included the construction of bypasses of Omsk, Tyumen, a road towards Perm, as well as the expansion of access roads from Ufa to Dyurtyuli, so that residents could conveniently use the M-12 highway.
