“When the new M5 highway appears, the South Urals will become a different region. New highways and interchanges in the Moscow region: which highways will they unload

In the Moscow region, large-scale work is underway to build new highways and interchanges, which should relieve the burden on existing ones. highways. Projects are implemented in all areas and have different time frames. What major road construction projects are being carried out in the region, what new transport facilities will change and what highways will unload, read the site in the material of the portal.

Central Ring Road

The construction of the Central Ring Road is called the largest and most ambitious project in the Moscow Region. The total length of the Central Ring Road will be 525 km, the route is designed to relieve urban highways, including Moscow ring. It will pass through the territory of the Moscow region and New Moscow, 50 km from the Moscow Ring Road.

The construction of the Central Ring Road began in 2014 - from the first launch complex. It is planned that he and the fifth launch complex will be opened in 2018. The remaining sections of the Central Ring Road will be handed over later: the third and fourth - in 2019. But the last section - the second launch complex - is planned to be completed by the mid-2020s.

The new ring will bypass settlements, connecting only with the largest. The capacity of the Central Ring Road will be 70-80 thousand cars per day.

It is expected that the road will significantly free the Moscow outbound highways (those that have an extension in the Moscow region) and the Moscow Ring Road from the transit transportation of goods, reduce the cost freight traffic and transport costs. Due to the fact that there will be no intracity transport on the Central Ring Road, the speed of car advance will also increase - 100-120 km / h against the usual 20-30 km / h on the Moscow Ring Road. The Central Ring Road will create large international transport corridors in the Moscow region. For example, it will be possible to get from Nizhny Novgorod to London or Helsinki.

Meteorological observation stations will appear on the Central Ring Road and automated system traffic control, it will be equipped with rest stops for drivers and roadside services. Also on the route will be provided 70-80 underground passages for pedestrians, and there will also be overhead crossings for animals.

Interchange in Krasnogorsk


Source: The construction of a two-level transport interchange at the intersection of Volokolamskoye and Ilyinskoye highways in the city district began in 2016. The interchange includes a flyover in the direction of Krasnogorsk - Mitino, a turning loop and a flyover on Ilyinsky Highway, consisting of two parts - in the direction from Ilyinsky Highway to the capital and back.

According to Governor Andrey Vorobyov, at present this site is one of the most problematic in the region. The speed of traffic on it rarely exceeds 20 km / h. However, the situation will change very soon.

A multi-level interchange will connect the two parts of Krasnogorsk and unravel the problem nodes. Under the overpass of the main traffic there will be an exit from Volokolamskoye to Ilyinskoye Highway - from Moscow, and an exit from Ilyinsky to Volokolamskoye Highway - in the direction of the region. It is also planned that the new transport facility will facilitate the exit from Krasnogorsk and the Istra region, partially relieve the burden on Novorizhskoe highway. The overpass will have four lanes of traffic, two lanes in each direction. The total length of the interchange will exceed nine kilometers, and its prospective capacity will be more than 100,000 vehicles per day.

The project is divided into three launch complexes. Works on the ground launch complex.

Junctions on the Gorky Highway


Source: Ministry of Transport and Road Infrastructure of the Moscow Region Reconstruction Gorky highway currently being carried out in three directions - the construction of interchanges 4 km from the Moscow Ring Road (adjacent to the Bypass Highway), 6 km (intersection with Sovetskaya Street) and 7 km (adjacent to the Leonovskoye Highway). In 2017, it is planned to start construction of the fourth interchange on the Eastern Highway.

Thanks to the reconstruction of the route, traffic jams from Moscow and Noginsk should disappear, since the overpasses will be through, without traffic lights. Upon completion of work, the transit overpasses will retain three traffic lanes in each direction, and on both sides of the overpasses there will be parallel two-lane roads for city vehicles. As a result, will be removed most of loads from the private sector, including from Saltykovka and Nikolsko-Arkhangelskoye, which is now receiving a large transit flow, bypassing traffic jams in Gorkovka.

And the fourth interchange will provide transport accessibility of the Sacramento microdistrict. Currently, to get there from Moscow, drivers are forced to turn around in the Noginsk district, because the left turn from the highway to the microdistrict is closed.

The editors of the Portal of the Roads of Russia

This year on the federal highway M-5 "Ural" (Moscow - Ryazan - Penza - Samara - Ufa - Chelyabinsk) in Ryazan region large-scale works are planned - reconstruction, overhaul and repair. Also, work will unfold on bridges and overpasses. In this regard, drivers will have to prepare for the fact that due to speed limits and reverse traffic, there will be traffic jams on many sections of the route. DorInfo found out where drivers will have to lose time.

Overhaul

Major renovation in 2016 year will pass near the village of Kuchasyevo in the section from 337 km to 350 km of the road (stage 1), as well as on bridges: across the Pilis River (161.6 km), through Vozha (166.9 km) and Shacha (352 km km). Work at all four sites has already begun and is expected to be completed by the end of September.

On the first two bridges, traffic is carried out in a reverse mode along two lanes, on the last one there is no traffic - vehicles are allowed through a temporary bypass road around the bridge, and transit traffic is allowed to bypass Shatsk. Reverse traffic operates on a 13-kilometer section near Kusachevo. A special speed limit of 40 km/h is set at all areas of overhaul (as well as repairs).

In addition, a major overhaul is planned on the bridge over the Vorsha (310 km). The contractor and the timing of the work will be known after the auction and the conclusion of the state contract.

Repair

The repair of the road has already begun in the sections: 221.9 - 241 km (reverse direction) in the village. Kamenka, 178 - 181.2 km, 184.6 - 187 km, 189.3 - 198.6 km, 279.5 - 286 km, 375 - 384 km. Reverse traffic is organized in these sections until the end of August.

By the way, the 189th km is one of the priorities for the road builders of the region. In the future, in the area of ​​​​this section - the construction of a junction to unload traffic near the oil refinery and the Kuibyshev highway. As DorInfo was informed in the press service of FKU Povolzhupravtodor, the object will be traded by the end of this year. Currently, public hearings are underway, and at the end of July it is planned to hold an auction and conclude a state contract with a contractor. According to the planned schedule, the commissioning of the facility is scheduled for 2018.

In addition, this year, after the conclusion of the state contract, the road workers will begin work on the overpass across the Yuzhny Promuzel street at 193.6 km.

Reconstruction

Specialists will continue the reconstruction of the road this year in two sections: 241 - 245.4 km, 248.1 - 258.3 km. At the first facility, when driving from Moscow (on the right side), there are no restrictions for transport, but in the opposite direction, traffic is closed at 800 meters. Traffic is carried out along the bypass road (by widening). Speed ​​- 50 km / h. The restrictions will remain in effect until September next year.

There are no traffic restrictions on the section from km 248.1 to km 258.3. The object will be ready for delivery at the end of this year.

The M-5 highway connecting the Urals with the Western part of the country is often called the "death road". Terrible accidents, overturned trucks, a dangerous section of the road in the Zlatoust area - all this is not in the best way affected the image component of the region. Meanwhile, experts believe that the track, in the presence of serious financial investments from the federation, can be turned into a modern autobahn. This will give impetus to the development of several regions at once. A member discusses the prospects of the M-5 Public Chamber Chelyabinsk Dmitry Chudinovskikh:

“With the M-5 theme, the region must get up and go down until this track becomes a real Road. Dear, connecting Southern Urals with the world. It is this topic that is the most important for the inhabitants of the Southern Urals, and not Ukraine, Syria and Trump. When a normal M-5 appears, the Chelyabinsk region will become a qualitatively different region. But the M-5 is needed to Moscow, and not to the border with Bashkiria. And this is already a project that unites Chelyabinsk, Ufa, Samara, Penza and Ryazan in a competitive battle with the cities of M-7.

The main issue of the M-5 highway is connected with the transport component. For a long time in our country, in Soviet times, the key function was performed Railway, the main share of cargo was transported along it, and road transport was of secondary importance. In modern times, the volume of traffic began to shift towards highways. The roads became two-lane. Of course, the Ural Range is a difficult place, significant investments are needed in the construction of roads. But due to the fact that railway transportation is expensive and takes a lot of time, the business, in addition to the transportation of coal and oil products, has gone to the roads.

In fact, the development of the Urals and Siberia, a number of regions is tied to the modernization of the M-5 highway, its continuation towards Siberia. If we had a modern two-lane highway in one direction, this would give a sharp impetus to the development of the regions. Businesses would be able to move goods more actively with less risk, I think their cost would go down.

I wonder why this will not become a federal project? Because it is much more significant than various championships?! We remember famous expression: "The Urals is the supporting edge of the state" and "Russia will grow with Siberia." I do not understand why the funds of the state, which it has on federal level, are not directed to objects such as M-5. It would become a locomotive and would solve a lot of problems. This would give a significant influx of economic activity.

There will be a good road - there will be new ones, interesting projects. What we are now trying to launch with other forces through incubators will happen by itself. When the road appears, large investors will come who will be interested in locating serious economic objects in this place. Investments in the M-5 will certainly pay off. Partially the route has been put in order up to Chebarkul, there are wide sections near Miass. But the fact is that these are only segments, and the track should turn into a modern autobahn: at least two lanes in one direction. This is object #1. In my opinion, if we talk about revitalizing the region's economy, we don't need to invent anything, we need to invest in M-5."

The federal highway M-5 "Ural" with a length of over 1800 km passes through the territory of ten subjects of Russia - Moscow, Ryazan, Penza, Samara, Sverdlovsk, Chelyabinsk, Ulyanovsk and Orenburg regions, as well as the Republics of Bashkortostan and Mordovia. It starts from the Moscow Ring Road in Moscow and stretches to Chelyabinsk through Ryazan, Penza, Samara. The route is part of the North-South (NS) international transport corridor, the European route E-30 Cork (Ireland) - Omsk and the Asian route AH-7 Ekaterinburg - Karachi (Pakistan). Last year, the M-5 road appeared more than once in the media. The DorInfo portal has collected the most significant and high-profile events that took place on the highway in 2017. Repair and reconstruction of road facilities, improving traffic safety, accidents and many kilometers of traffic jams - all this in one material.

Road works on the M-5 Ural highway: what and where was done in 2017

Last year, on the federal highway M-5 "Ural" within the boundaries Moscow region over 100 km of the roadway was restored. In the course of the work, specialists replaced the road surface, repaired junctions and exits, strengthened roadsides and slopes, and applied road markings.

So, the road was brought to the normative state in both directions from km 86 to km 94, from km 94 to km 101, from km 101 to km 109, from km 109 to km 117 -th km and from the 117th km to the 124th. Not only the road surface was repaired, but also artificial structures - five overpasses and two bridges across the Moscow River. Specialists repaired spans, supports and cones, restored stairs, replaced expansion joints and equipped with waterproofing, laid a new bridge deck, installed fences and applied road markings. In particular, such work was carried out in the Kolomna region on overpasses in the area of ​​km 104 and 106, as well as on river bridges in the area of ​​km 35 and 105.

AT Ryazan region last year, a section of the M-5 Ural highway from km 241 to km 245 was reconstructed. In the course of the work, the road workers made the section four-lane, brought ramps and junctions to the standard, arranged turnaround loops and transition lanes, installed a 1 km noise screen near residential buildings, built a drainage system and installed new treatment facilities. The reconstruction made it possible to eliminate the "bottleneck", which was located near the villages of Dobry Sot and Zarechye in the Spassky district. In addition, 145 road signs and 9 km of new fencing appeared on the highway, two pedestrian crossings were equipped with traffic lights, thermoplastic markings were applied to the roadway, and street lighting was installed.

Reconstruction work also touched upon the bridge over the Pronya River. For the convenience of motorists, specialists added a new one to the existing structure, labor movement which opened in 2015. On the old “half”, movable supports were straightened and protective casings were installed, damage was eliminated and the protective layer was restored, the main beams were reinforced, and the bridge deck was leveled, expansion joints were replaced, drainage and stairs were repaired. Also in Ryazan in 2017 continued construction works at the interchange, which is located at the intersection of the M-5 "Ural" and R-132 "Kaluga - Ryazan" highways. Currently, traffic is allowed on the right lane M-5 and the right semicircle.

On the section of the M-5 highway passing through the territory Penza region , restored the worn-out coating on the section from km 540 to km 548 in the Nizhnelomovsky district and from km 662 to km 678 in the Gorodishchensky district. On the Penza bypass, the reconstruction of the section from km 634 to km 645 took place, during which the roadway became four-lane. Specialists also built an interchange at the intersection of M-5 and Austrina Street. The object allowed to reduce the time spent on the road, heading from the Bessonovsky district to Penza. The second interchange, which appeared on the 645th km of the M-5 highway, provided a free exit from Chaadaev Street to federal road towards the village of Chemodanovka. In addition, in 2017, vehicular traffic was opened along the repaired overpass across the railway crossing and the reconstructed bridge across the Sura River.

AT Ulyanovsk region road workers continued the reconstruction of the road from km 814 to km 835. Passage through a two-lane section was allowed within the boundaries of the Nikolaevsky district in mid-September. As part of the work, engineering structures were rebuilt, a culvert system was built, and pavement was arranged. Also, work was underway on the bridge under construction across the stream, where the beams of the superstructure were mounted, a fence was installed and a drainage system was arranged. The renovation is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2018.

In Togliatti ( Samara Region) ahead of schedule, they repaired the bridge across the Volga, which is located in the area of ​​​​the 970th km of M-5 near the Zhigulevskaya hydroelectric power station. Work at the facility proceeded around the clock in four stages. Specialists restored the expansion joints, repaired the structural elements of the bridge, replaced the drainage pipes and arranged drainage channels, the road surface was laid in two layers.

AT Republic of Bashkortostan Repair work was carried out on two sections with a total length of 18 km. In November, specialists overhauled the 1281st km. Coastal and intermediate supports were restored at the facility, the bridge deck was renewed, expansion joints and adapter plates were replaced, the drainage system was repaired, the cones were strengthened and structural elements under the bridge were restored. After the reconstruction, a section was opened at the 1418th km. In the course of the work, the road surface was replaced, the roadway was widened and two pipes were installed.

The overhaul was completed in 2017 at the entrance to Yekaterinburg ( Sverdlovsk region) in the section from km 138 to km 143 and from km 191 to km 193. In addition, the road builders repaired the overpass across the highway in the area of ​​km 185, as well as interchanges at km 139, km 157, km 161, km 178 and km 185. AT Chelyabinsk region on sections of the M-5 highway, about 60 km of the road surface was restored. Seven artificial structures brought to the normative state: bridges over the rivers Kuvashi (1722 km), Bishbaital (1851 km), Serazak (1863 km), as well as two overpasses over railway crossings - in the area of ​​1852 km and the 1777th km.

Traffic restrictions on the M-5 Ural highway

On the federal highway M-5 Ural in 2017, traffic restrictions were mainly introduced on the above sections in connection with current and major repairs, construction and reconstruction. This is usually about narrowing the road or organizing travel in reverse order. In addition, on the segment from km 943 to km 972, which passes through the territory Samara region, from May 1 to November 30, from 7:00 to 22:00, restrictions were in place for heavy trucks weighing over 3.5 tons and dimensions over 3.4 meters. This decision was taken from the repair work. The highway near Yekaterinburg was blocked twice at night due to the installation of superstructures of pedestrian crossings. The restrictions were in effect for half an hour.

Spring 2017 melt water a section of the M-5 Ural highway in the Alekseevsky district of the Samara region was washed away from the fields, which led to subsidence of the roadway and, accordingly, the impossibility of travel.

Restrictions were repeatedly imposed on the M-5 highway due to adverse meteorological conditions. So, in winter, heavy snowfall, gusty winds and snowstorms led to reduced visibility. The longest closed section over the past year was the segment in the Samara region. To prevent accidents, the road was closed from km 890 to km 1194. The length of the closed section was over 300 km. By the way, because of this, on the road, which lasted about a day.

Enhance Security traffic on the highway M-5 "Ural"

To improve the safety of road users and reduce accidents on the M-5 Ural highway, last year the road workers carried out a number of measures. In particular, in the Moscow region, to prevent accidents involving pedestrians, a new fence appeared on sections from 27 km to 85 km. An underpass was also repaired in the area of ​​the 28th km of the highway near the village of Oktyabrsky. Its ground part was protected by a polycarbonate canopy, a railing was installed, lighting was installed, a drainage system was restored, and an automatic platform was arranged for the descent and ascent of low-mobility groups. In total, 34 cameras for photo and video recording were installed on the highway traffic violations, five traffic counts and six weather stations. According to FKU Tsentravtomagistral, from January to November 2017, the region recorded a decrease in accidents by almost 20% compared to the same period in 2016.

In 2017, within the boundaries of the Ryazan, Penza, Saratov, Ulyanovsk and Samara regions, the highway was equipped with a lighting system at 14 unregulated pedestrian crossings, traffic lights appeared at eight crossings. In the Samara region, more than 6 km of anti-glare screens were installed along the axis of the barrier fence. In order to prevent cars from entering the oncoming lane, more than 2 km of cable fencing was installed in the Penza region, and about 300 meters more appeared at the entrance to Samara. During the overhaul, 17 bus stops and 17 unregulated pedestrian crossings were equipped with an autonomous lighting system. According to the statistics of FKU "Povolzhupravtodor", the measures taken have reduced the number of accidents on the M-5 highway in these regions by 9%. For 11 months of 2017, 1137 accidents occurred, in which 348 people died, another 1863 people were injured. In 2016, 1247 accidents were recorded with 356 deaths and 1863 injured.

On the section of the route from km 1214 to km 1217, passing through the territory of Bashkiria, specialists replaced almost a thousand linear meters of barrier fencing. Also, on the segment from km 1401 to km 1449, duplicate road signs at 17 pedestrian crossings.

According to the statistics of FKU Uprdor "Priuralye", in the subordinated sections of M-5 in 2017, the accident rate decreased by 19.4%. So, in 2016 there were 201 accidents against 162 in 2017. At the same time, the number of victims decreased by about 28% - from 292 to 209 people, and the number of deaths by 7.5% - from 53 to 49 people. The Office added that the number of accidents that occurred due to poor road conditions decreased by 64% compared to 2016.

A metal barrier fence to separate oncoming flows appeared at all sections of the overhaul of the M-5 Ural highway in the Sverdlovsk region. In addition, to improve safety, lighting poles were installed and above-ground modular pedestrian crossings were installed in the areas of km 191 and km 193 near bus stops. To prevent pedestrians from entering the roadway, sidewalks with railings to stops are equipped public transport. In addition, two reversal loops have been installed at the 191st km and 193rd km of the entrance to Yekaterinburg. FKU Uralupravtodor reported that the measures taken had a positive impact on the reduction of accidents in the region on the M-5 highway, and also increased throughput transport hub.

On the territory of the Chelyabinsk region in 2017, specialists replaced and installed over 10.5 thousand linear meters of a side metal fence and installed about 11.3 linear meters of an axial fence. Three pedestrian crossings in the area of ​​km 1779 (“Miass”), km 1840 (“Birgilda village”) and km 1843 (“Vitaminny village”) were equipped with lighting with motion sensors and traffic lights. To improve the safety of road users, it is prohibited to turn left on the 1799th km of the federal highway. Warning boards "Accidentally hazardous area" were installed in six places. In FKU Uprdor "South Ural" noted that last year in the places of work to improve the level of traffic safety, there was a decrease in the accident rate and severity of the consequences of road accidents compared to the same period in 2016.

Major accidents on the M-5 Ural highway in 2017

The federal highway M-5 "Ural" is very popular with motorists - several tens of thousands of cars a day pass through it every day, accidents often occur on the road, in which people die and are injured. The cause of car accidents is the exit to the "oncoming lane", violation speed limit, non-observance of a safe distance, overturning of the vehicle into a ditch. Bad weather can also lead to accidents.

One of the tragic accidents in 2017 was a collision between a passenger car and a truck, which occurred on the M-5 in the borders of the Chelyabinsk region. The accident recorded on January 24 claimed four lives. According to the police, the driver of a Kia Rio car at a “high” speed crashed into a KAMAZ snow blower, which was moving in the same direction. The blow turned out to be so powerful that the foreign car was thrown into a ditch, and the wheel that came off from KAMAZ flew off into the Lada. As a result, the driver of a domestic car lost control and broke through a metal fence along the road. The driver of the passenger car and three of his passengers did not survive the accident. According to photos from the scene of the accident, the Kia Rio was driving at speeds over 160 km/h. According to updated information, there were several bottles of vodka in the cabin.

Another fatal accident involving a truck happened in mid-February last year in the Ryazan region. Three people were killed in a collision between two cars and a truck, and another was taken to the hospital. In the area of ​​the 241st km of the M-5 Ural, a 28-year-old man lost control of the steering of the Lada Priora car, as a result of which the passenger car was swept into

oncoming lane, where she first crashed into a Chevrolet Lacetti, and then rammed a Volvo truck. Driver killed in accident domestic car with two passengers. The third passenger of the Priora was taken to the hospital with injuries.

A terrible accident involving a truck and a minibus occurred on a highway in Bashkiria in early March. According to the police, a Peugeot minibus with 17 passengers was heading from Ufa to Maloyaz. On the 1505th, the vehicle collided with a Scania heavy truck moving in the oncoming lane. From the impact of the minibus, the front part was literally torn apart, two of its passengers, a man and a woman, died at the scene of the accident, six more people from it were taken to a medical facility.

Several fatal accidents have been recorded in federal highway last summer. In particular, in mid-June on the territory of the Ryazan region in the region of the 292nd km due to too high speed the driver of a Chevrolet car lost control, drove into the oncoming lane under the wheels of a Volvo truck. As a result of the collision, the man driving the passenger car, as well as three of his passengers - a woman, an 11-year-old child and a 16-year-old teenager - died at the scene. During the check, the police found out that the foreign car was shod in "winter" tires. In July, an accident with a Hyundai Solaris passenger car and a Renault Magnum truck near the 951st km in the Samara region caused the death of four people. The police found out that the passenger car drove into the oncoming lane, where it crashed into a truck. The driver of the car and three of his passengers died in the accident. Another person required hospitalization.

In the same month, four people became victims of a terrible accident in the Chelyabinsk region. On the 1798th km of the M-5 Ural highway, the driver of the Gazelle car, in order to turn left, drove out of his lane into the oncoming lane, which led to a collision with a Volvo heavy truck. As a result of an accident, the man who drove the Gazelle, as well as three of his passengers - a woman, a guy and a child, died. At the end of October 2017, a Volkswagen minibus and a tractor with a trailer collided in the Orenburg region. The blow was so strong that the tractor overturned the road. Three people were fatally injured in the collision, and three more were transported to a medical facility.

Three people died and two were injured in a mass accident at the entrance to Orenburg from the M-5 Ural highway in the Samara region. The accident happened at the end of last year, on December 26th. During the check, the police found out that on the 42nd km of the access road to Orenburg, four vehicles. The driver of a VAZ-21214 (Niva) was towing a Daewoo Nexia foreign car on a flexible hitch. During a heavy snowfall, a domestic passenger car drove into the oncoming lane on the wheels of a KAMAZ truck. At the same time, a towed foreign car was rammed by a Lada Priora car driving along the highway. As a result of the accident, three people died - the driver of the Niva and two of his passengers. Two more people, a VAZ passenger and a Daewoo Nexia driver, were hospitalized with injuries.

Reconstruction Volgogradki in Moscow is nearing completion, and the interchange of this route with the Moscow Ring Road has already been updated. But summer residents are well aware that in the region the reconstruction of the main highways is noticeably behind what we see in Moscow. This fully applies to Novoryazanka - highway M-5. Last year, a bypass of Bronnitsy was launched here: a 12-kilometer section of the new road from the concrete road A-107 to the village. Ulyanino. But when and how will the other problems of the highway be solved?

These plans were told in the FKU "Tsentravtomagistral" (this is the department of "Rosavtodor", serving federal highways in the Moscow region, it is the customer of the reconstruction of these roads).

Oktyabrsky will be bypassed on the left

Perhaps the most anticipated element of the updated Novoryazanka today is the detour of Oktyabrsky and Ostrovtsy. According to FKU "Tsentravtomagisral", its project is already ready.

The bypass will begin with a large interchange, which will be built at the confluence of the Ryazan and Novoryazanskoe highway. Old Ryazanka will pass under the flyover and further - to Oktyabrsky, along the current trajectory of the road. And the main course of the updated M-5 (5 rows in each direction) will be allowed on top, along the flyovers, and then - completely new road, which will pass to the left of Oktyabrsky and Ostrovtsy. An 11 km long detour will get interchanges with the Mikhnevsky and Ostrovetskoye highways and will go to the Moskva River not far from existing bridge in front of the village of Chulkovo.

The deadlines have been pushed back, but in 2016-2017, preparation of the territory will still begin at the construction site, funds for this have already been allocated. The construction of the bypass will begin no earlier than 2018 and will last approximately 4-5 years.

Interchange in Chulkovo to be completed

Last year, when the left turn to Zhukovsky, located on the M-5 immediately after the Moskva River in the village of Chulkovo, was reconstructed, motorists immediately noticed one “oddity”. Before the reconstruction, there was a traffic light here, now there is a two-level interchange, but traffic jams before the turn did not decrease, but ... grew! And the thing is that a section appeared at the junction - a small one, 100 meters - where the entire federal highway narrows to 1 lane in each direction!

Of course, there was a reason to organize traffic in this way: the exit to the highway from the interchange was covered with something like a safety island, so that those who drive in a straight line and those who are going to merge into the stream do not immediately fall into one lane. But there is a problem: before the reconstruction there were two rows, and although they were held by a traffic light, the flow moved faster. Motorists are perplexed: what will happen when the Oktyabrsky bypass is built? Is it possible that 5 rows will merge into one?!

Of course not. According to the Tsentravtomagistral FKU, as part of the construction of the Oktyabrsky bypass across the river, two separate bridges for oncoming flows will be built, each with 5 rows. At the same time, an interchange in the village of Chulkovo will be completed. 2 rows out of 5 will go to Zhukovsky, and 3 will go in a straight line to Ryazan.
