Thanks to the national project "Infrastructure for Life", the renovation of sections of regional and local roads leading to educational and children's leisure institutions continues. By Knowledge Day, work has been completed on more than 800 km, Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin reported.

"Improving the quality of education and increasing the comfort of students are under special control of the state. In recent years, a colossal amount of work has been done to build new schools and kindergartens, as well as to repair and reconstruct existing ones. Of course, each educational institution should have a comfortable and safe infrastructure: convenient access roads, safe crossings, pedestrian zones, sidewalks. We are actively carrying out this work under the national project "Infrastructure for Life". In anticipation of September 1, road works were completed on 323 sections of the regional and local road network leading to children's educational and leisure institutions – this is 837 km," said Marat Khusnullin.

By the end of the year, the number of updated school routes will increase significantly.

"In 2025, in order to achieve the national project indicators, it is planned to bring 870 objects up to standard – this is more than 3 thousand km of roads to schools, kindergartens, secondary specialized and higher educational institutions. Large-scale work is carried out both within the boundaries of populated areas and beyond them – on regional and inter-municipal roads, along which school routes also pass. Particular attention is paid to strict quality control of road works at all stages – from design to commissioning of objects. This guarantees not only compliance with standards, but also the durability and reliability of the infrastructure being created," said Minister of Transport Andrei Nikitin.

Road workers pay special attention to ensuring road safety.

"As a rule, when carrying out repair work, school routes are equipped with safety elements in accordance with modern standards. This includes the installation of pedestrian crossings, speed bumps, traffic lights, and pedestrian barriers. In addition, thanks to the federal project "Road Safety", large-scale work is being carried out to prevent child road traffic injuries and to form a culture of safe behavior on the roads. Thus, within the framework of the national project "Infrastructure for Life", a whole range of measures is being implemented aimed at ensuring maximum safety for children on the roads," emphasized the head of the Federal Road Agency, Roman Novikov.

In the village of Chigiri in the Amur Region, on the eve of September 1, construction of a road along Krasnaya Street, 0.75 km long, was completed. It leads from Vasilenko Street to the new building of the Chigirin school.

In the Udmurt Republic, of the 63 road facilities planned to be updated this year under the national project "Infrastructure for Life", 48 lead to schools, kindergartens or are a school route. Their total length is 51.8 km.

In the Sharkansky district of Udmurtia, a section of Centralnaya Street in the village of Porozovo was repaired before the start of the school year. Its length is 1.2 km.

In the Republic of Adygea, by September 1, repairs to three school routes in Maykop with a total length of more than 2 km have already been completed, and about 42 km of regional roads passing through populated areas near educational institutions have been updated.

Thus, in the capital of the republic, Gogol Street, 0.9 km long, has been repaired. It provides transport accessibility to two higher education institutions at once, in which more than 17 thousand students study in total – Adyghe State University and Maikop Technological University. There are many centers for professional development and sports on the basis of educational institutions. The Gogol Street section is a 2026 facility that was repaired ahead of schedule.

One of the longest regional facilities – routes to educational institutions – is an almost 6-kilometer section of the Krasnooktyabrsky – Kurdzhipskaya – Dagestanskaya road in the Maykop district. It passes through the settlement of Krasnooktyabrsky along Kubanskaya Street. Educational Center No. 2 of the Maykop district is located here, with more than 1,000 students. Work on the facility has been completed.
