Instead of railway crossings, there are overpasses.
On July 1, traffic on the new overpass in Stupino, Moscow region, is scheduled to open. What other overpasses are next?
In the city of Stupino, on the 1st km of the Stupino - Gorodishche — Ozery highway, a 450-meter overpass is being built over the Paveletsky direction of the Moscow Railway. In addition to it, there are also eight exits as part of the interchange under construction. And there are three above-ground crossings for pedestrians. Also, according to the project with a total cost of almost 4.5 billion, the sections of the street adjacent to the interchange are being reconstructed. Pier, Metallurgists and Victory Avenue. The overpass with interchange is scheduled to be launched on July 1, 2015. After that, the daily capacity of the intersection of the highway with the railway will increase from 27,000 to 50,000 tons/s. And the point here is not only that the railway crossing that was collecting traffic jams will be eliminated (on average, the barrier blocked traffic 4.5 hours a day), but also that this intersection was two-lane, and the overpass and adjacent road sections are designed for four lanes. Let us remind you that as part of the governor's Safe Passage project in the Moscow region, at the end of last year, 2014, motorists were taken over by an overpass at Khlebnikovo Square in Dolgoprudny, and a little earlier — two on the A107 Malaya Betonka (near the village of Selyatino between the intersections of the ring with Kiev and Minsk highways and the White Pillars on the site between Ryazansky and Kashirsky sh.). Which overpasses are now in line?
In 2015, the Mikhnevo - Zhilevo overpasses, in Pavlovsky Posad, on the 20th km of Nosovikhinsky Highway, near the square, will also be put into operation. Novodachnoye and Perkhushkovo.
Reflective boots are safer!
In the northern Vologda region, they decided not to wait for summer and "forge iron" while it's burning... sorry, it's still cold. By order of the traffic police, one of the local craftsmen of handmade felt boots began to produce this traditional Russian type of shoe with reflective elements. This is relevant: accidents among the adult population, including the elderly, have become more frequent in the region. The master who accepted the traffic police's offer (by the way, the former traffic inspector himself) did not lose. The first batch of "glowing" felt boots was sold out instantly. "Being visible on the road can be not only useful and necessary, but also fashionable," the Vologda Oblast Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs sums up. In the near future, the "production" of unusual boots will be expanded.
A bridge was suspended over the Katun River
In Elekmonar (Altai Republic), traffic has opened on a 140-meter suspension bridge over the Katun River, which, in order to extend its service life, will only allow vehicles with a lifting capacity of no more than 3.5 tons. The new ferry replaced the former suspension bridge over the Katun River at the Dragon's Teeth Cliffs, which was destroyed during last year's flood. winhero
