In St. Petersburg, construction of a transport interchange to provide access to Pulkovo Airport from the M-11 Neva highway continues. As of today, work has been completed to install an embankment between these roads. This was reported by Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin.
“The quality and standard of living of Russians directly depend on the condition of the road and transport network. To ensure the gradual growth of these indicators, we are carrying out systematic work to modernize the country’s main infrastructure, which increases its reliability and safety. Thus, on the instructions of the President, we are continuing the construction of a transport interchange at the 681st km of the M-11 “Neva” with a connection to Pulkovo Airport. Thanks to it, a major transport hub will appear in the region, ensuring the speed and convenience of movement for drivers and passengers. Today, specialists have completed the backfill of the roadbed between Pulkovskoe Highway and the M-11 “Neva” highway, as well as two exits at the junction with the M-11 from the airport side,” said Marat Khusnullin.
Also, at the construction site, bored piles are being installed on all three overpasses of the future facility. The total length of the interchange with all exits will be 5.5 km.
According to the Chairman of the Board of the state company Avtodor, Vyacheslav Petushenko, the new transport interchange will contribute to the active development of St. Petersburg and the Leningrad Region.
“The road connecting M-11 Neva with Pulkovo will open up additional opportunities for the socio-economic development of the regions. The future facility will become a high-speed route leading to the international airport. This will stimulate the growth of tourist attractiveness and investment activity in the adjacent territories. Work is currently underway on all three overpasses as part of the interchange. The total length of the two artificial structures over Pulkovo Highway will be 614 m, they will rest on 17 supports. For the 55 m long overpass over M-11, the project provides for the construction of three supports. As of today, the construction of pile foundations for the supports of the future overpasses is 70% complete,” noted Vyacheslav Petushenko.
The facility is scheduled to be commissioned at the end of 2026.
