Bridge over the Shuya River on the Petrozavodsk – Suoyarvi highway, Republic of Karelia.
Modern and high-quality artificial structures ensure unimpeded passage through water obstacles, railways and difficult terrain, minimizing the risk of emergency situations and reducing travel time. Over the six years of implementing the national project “Safe High-Quality Roads” in Russia, more than 1.8 thousand bridges and overpasses have been commissioned. This was reported by Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin.
“During the entire implementation of the national project “Safe High-Quality Roads”, we have carried out large-scale work to update and develop bridges and overpasses. Their reliability and durability play a key role in the safety and comfort of drivers and passengers. In total, 1,823 artificial structures with a total length of more than 138 thousand running meters have been updated in the regions. This is a whole range of works – from the construction of new crossings to the modernization and major repairs of existing facilities. Since this year, we have been continuing important work on some of the most complex elements of road construction within the framework of the new national project “Infrastructure for Life”, – said Marat Khusnullin.
Large-scale work on the construction and renovation of artificial structures on the country’s roads brought tangible results in 2024. This trend will continue in the new year thanks to the new national project.
“In 2024, significant progress was made in the construction, reconstruction and repair of artificial structures thanks to the national project “Safe High-Quality Roads”. We commissioned 680 bridge structures with a total length of 52 thousand linear meters. These figures are the result of the enormous work of hundreds of road workers across the country. Thanks to their coordinated work, the accessibility of territories and socially significant facilities for citizens is increased, and the economic potential of the regions is strengthened. Based on the successes of previous years, in 2025, under the national project “Infrastructure for Life”, we plan to commission more than 500 bridges and overpasses, which will be another step towards creating a modern and safe road network,” said Igor Kostyuchenko, Deputy Head of the Federal Road Agency.
Thus, in 2024, the reconstruction of the bridge across the Shuya River on the Petrozavodsk-Suoyarvi highway, which connects the Prionezhsky, Pryazhinsky districts and the Suoyarvi district, was completed in the Republic of Karelia.
Another significant facility reconstructed in 2024 under the national project was the Argamachensky Bridge across the Yelchik River in Yelets, Lipetsk Region. It connects Argamachenskaya and 9 Dekabrya Streets, and also links the city with a densely populated suburb, the Krasninskaya Highway, and the bypass road.
In the Sovetsky district of Volgograd, construction of an overpass at the intersection of the Novy Rogachik – Volgograd highway and the Gornopolyansky – Kanalnaya railway section has been completed. The total length of the facility is 1.2 km. Thanks to the construction of the overpass junction in the village of Novy Rogachik, Volgograd residents are now provided with unimpeded access to the federal highway A-260 in conditions of intensive freight train traffic.
