Marat Khusnullin opened a new interchange on the M-11 Neva highway
Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin launched traffic at the interchange on the federal highway M-11 "Neva" in the Tver Region. The new facility was built by the state company "Avtodor". The opening of the interchange was attended by Minister of Transport Andrei Nikitin, Chairman of the Board of the state company "Avtodor" Vyacheslav Petushenko, Governor of the Tver Region Igor Rudenya, and Acting Governor of the Novgorod Region Alexander Dronov.
“The M-11 highway is a key element of the international transport corridors “North-South”, “West-East”, and Europe-Western China, which originate in St. Petersburg. The new interchange will provide convenient access to the highway for residents and visitors of two cities – Valdai and Borovichi, as well as dozens of rural settlements. In addition, this is an additional connection with the promising tourist routes of Valdai. I would like to note that, in general, this is part of a large-scale work on the formation of international transport corridors and a backbone road network covering 2,160 settlements. I am confident that the heads of the Tver and Novgorod regions will be able to correctly use the impetus provided by the new road facilities for the development of their territories. This is an opportunity to place new tourist facilities, logistics and production complexes, and housing construction. I thank the road workers, foremen, and engineers! The facility was built in a short time – less than a year. Thanks to the Ministry of Transport of Russia, the team of the state-owned company “Avtodor”. Thank you Rosavtodor is for prompt repair of the road towards Valdai. We have many tasks ahead, a lot of work. We will only move forward to new victories!" – said Marat Khusnullin.
The site created conditions for safe and comfortable travel. To separate oncoming traffic flows, a dividing strip was installed, and 143 outdoor lighting supports were installed. At the peak of construction, more than 250 people and 80 units of equipment were involved in the site.
Transport Minister Andrey Nikitin noted that this is a historic, landmark project for two entities – Novgorod and Tver Oblasts. “In addition to Valdai, a rapidly growing tourist center of the region, Borovichi, an advanced development area where industry is growing, this is an opportunity for the southern and southeastern territories of Novgorod Oblast to move forward. Thanks to this interchange and the work that the region is doing together with Avtodor State Corporation, settlements have the opportunity to attract investment and economic development in order to create a quality life for residents,” said Andrey Nikitin.
"Traditionally, on the eve of our professional holiday, we put new facilities into operation. Today we are opening traffic on a transport interchange that has a special, historical significance. This is due to the fact that this is the first interchange that we have built since the opening of the Tver bypass on the M-11 "Neva" last year. I want to say that we are actively developing this highway. Now, on the instructions of the President, we are building another interchange on this road, which will provide a convenient exit to Pulkovo Airport in St. Petersburg. These facilities open up new opportunities for the development of the economy of adjacent territories, help to increase the indicators of the regions, provide access to our high-speed highways. We have many plans, and we are focused on further productive work to improve the infrastructure of our road network. Builders are great! I want to congratulate everyone on the upcoming holiday – Builder's Day, with the most creative, effective and best profession in the world! " – emphasized the head of the state company "Avtodor" Vyacheslav Petushenko.
Governor of the Tver Region Igor Rudenya noted that the opening of a new transport interchange in the Bologovsky District, at the 385th kilometer of the M-11 highway, is a significant event that will improve the transport accessibility of the northern and north-eastern territories of the Tver Region, and will increase the connectivity of the Upper Volga region with the Novgorod and Vologda Regions. "On behalf of the residents of the Tver Region, I would like to thank the Government of the Russian Federation, the state company Avtodor, the designers, builders, and everyone who implemented the project at a high quality level, significantly ahead of schedule," said Igor Rudenya.
As the acting governor of the Novgorod region Alexander Dronov noted, the interchange is of great importance for the further development of the Novgorod region. "For guests of the region, this is a unique opportunity to comfortably reach our pearls, Borovichi, Valdai, the great Valdai trail, Lake Seliger, which also unites us with our good neighbors," he said.
