Marat Khusnullin: Concreting of the U-turn loop has begun on the Adler bypass.
In Krasnodar Krai, the implementation of a large-scale project to build a bypass around Adler continues. Currently, road workers have begun monolithic work on the above-ground part of the turnaround loop as part of the future interchange on the eastern side of the bypass around Adler in the village of Vysokoye. This was reported by Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin.
"The south of Russia has enormous economic potential. The development of the region's road and transport complex opens up new opportunities to improve people's living conditions and increase transport accessibility, and is also becoming a driver of growth for a number of economic sectors, including domestic tourism. As part of the modernization of the road network in the south of the country, we are building a bypass of Adler. The new road will reduce travel time to the Sochi airport and Krasnaya Polyana, and will also ensure the withdrawal of transit transport from the resort area, which will create comfortable conditions for local residents and tourists. Currently, builders have begun constructing the above-ground part of the turnaround loop as part of the future interchange on the eastern side of the Adler bypass in the village of Vysokoye. After the completion of the work, this turnaround loop will be available for visitors and residents of Sochi when driving along the A-149 highway from Adler for a comfortable exit onto the Adler bypass and towards the old Krasnopolyanskoye highway for travel in the direction of the Sochi airport, the villages of Moldovka, Vysokoye and other nearby settlements," said Marat Khusnullin.
The Deputy Prime Minister added that the eastern interchange will have nine exits in total, so that motorists traveling in any direction will be able to enter the Adler bypass tunnel leading to Kudepsta. And those who arrived through the tunnel from the center of Sochi will be able to turn onto the old and new Krasnaya Polyana Highway to travel toward Krasnaya Polyana, Sochi Airport, and Adler.
According to the Chairman of the Board of the state company Avtodor, Vyacheslav Petushenko, the concreting of the turnaround loop will be carried out in stages, in sections.
"274 cubic meters of high-strength concrete with a total weight of about 685 tons were used to concretize the first span. About 1.9 thousand cubic meters of concrete will be needed to construct the entire U-turn loop. After construction is completed, the overpass, 362 meters long and 7.9 meters wide, in the easternmost part of the future multi-level interchange of the Adler bypass will bend around the high-speed direction of the A-149 highway and the Mzymta River bed from above. It will be supported by 12 supports, the construction of which has already been completed," said Vyacheslav Petushenko.
