A busy section of the M-4 "Don" highway in the Moscow region has been repaired.
The government continues to implement projects to strengthen the country's road infrastructure. Road upgrades are underway in many regions. For example, in the Moscow Region, major repairs have been completed on 12.5 km of the M-4 "Don" highway, as announced by Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin.
"The quality of life for people, as well as the performance of key economic and social sectors, depends on the quality and safety of the road network. Therefore, we are implementing projects to build both new roads and upgrade existing ones. Specifically, on the M-4 "Don" highway, we completed major repairs from the 103rd to the 117th kilometer, which is one of the most heavily traveled sections of the road. Construction and installation work was carried out in the Stupino and Kashira urban districts without traffic restrictions. As a result, specialists replaced the road surface and widened the roadway to three lanes in each direction. In addition, significant work was carried out on seven structures – one bridge, four overpasses, and two pedestrian overpasses were brought up to standard," said Marat Khusnullin.
The Deputy Prime Minister noted that the M-4 Don Highway is a strategic route. It delivers humanitarian aid to border and reunified regions. It is one of the country's key highways, connecting Russia's central regions with the Black Sea coast.
According to Vyacheslav Petushenko, Chairman of the Board of the state-owned company Avtodor, this section of the M-4 "Don" is used daily not only by freight carriers, but also by residents of nearby settlements in the Moscow region, and in the warmer months, by summer residents and road travelers heading south.
"The M-4 Don Highway is traditionally considered the main artery for access to our country's resort areas. Furthermore, this road is part of the North-South transport corridor. Due to the highway's significant importance, we are paying special attention to creating comfortable travel conditions. To ensure traffic safety, we replaced the barrier fence and signs, applied horizontal markings made of wear-resistant thermoplastic, installed mesh fencing, and installed outdoor lighting along the entire length of the section," explained Vyacheslav Petushenko.
