Moscow, July 16 /Xinhua/ — Russian President Vladimir Putin on Wednesday took part via videoconference in the opening ceremony of the Dyurtyuli-Achit section of the M-12 Vostok highway.
"Today we are opening a new section of the Dyurtyuli-Achit road, more than 275 km long. It will become an important part of the M-12 "Vostok" highway. With its commissioning, modern highways will connect St. Petersburg and Moscow with Yekaterinburg, the capital of the Urals, the leading scientific, industrial and cultural center of Russia," the Russian leader noted.
According to V. Putin, high-speed, seamless traffic without a single traffic light has been organized along the entire length of the highway, thanks to which travel time from Yekaterinburg to Moscow will be reduced by almost half.
"As a result, travel by car will become more comfortable and safe, the number of passengers and cargo carried will increase. The development of domestic tourism will receive a good incentive. Natural and cultural attractions of our country will become more accessible to citizens," the Russian president added. –0–
