"Repairing and replacing barriers is a key focus for road services. This year, we plan to renew nearly 60 kilometers of these structures, some of which need replacement or were damaged in accidents. Most often, we carry out repairs on sections of ring roads and outbound highways," noted Pyotr Biryukov.

To improve road safety in the capital, a program to replace and repair metal barriers has been in place since 2015. Damaged barriers are being replaced with new, heavy-duty barriers capable of holding a vehicle weighing up to nine tons at 60 kilometers per hour. These barriers reduce the severity of accidents by preventing vehicles from crossing into oncoming traffic and, consequently, from causing a head-on collision with another vehicle. The program has resulted in a nearly threefold reduction in the number of oncoming traffic accidents.

The head of the city's infrastructure department emphasized that special piling rigs are used during repairs and replacements, which are used to dismantle damaged elements and then install new structures.

The projects being implemented in the capital to create a comfortable urban environment are in line with the goals and objectives of the national project Infrastructure for LifeMore information about national projects and the capital's contribution can be found atspecial page.
