Deputy Prime Minister Tatyana Golikova spoke at the panel discussion "Family in Focus. How Culture and Media Can Help Solve the Demographic Issue" at the St. Petersburg International Forum of United Cultures. Other speakers at the panel discussion included Sergei Novikov, Head of the Presidential Directorate for Public Projects, Alexei Eremin, Deputy Plenipotentiary Representative of the President in the Central Federal District, Maria Zakharova, Director of the Information and Press Department of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Wang Bin, a journalist from the People's Republic of China, Marina Kim, First Deputy Chairman of the State Duma Committee on Information Policy, Information Technology and Communications, and Priest Fyodor Lukyanov, Chairman of the Patriarchal Commission on Family Issues, Protection of Motherhood and Childhood. The panel discussion was moderated by Andrei Kondrashov, General Director of TASS.

As Tatyana Golikova noted, Russia is a country where the family has always been the indestructible foundation of society, the strength of spirit and the keeper of traditions. The more challenges there are in the modern world for the family in its traditional sense, the more serious attention should be paid to this topic not only by the state, but also by culture and the media.

The family is a fundamental social institution of particular strategic importance on which the future of the country depends.

The Deputy Prime Minister emphasized that the state is doing a lot to ensure that the number of families with children grows, and that the number of large families increases. Today, having many children is becoming a real value in Russia – there are already 2.8 million large families in the country. Over the past two years, their number has increased by 17.4%, with 8.9 million children growing up in them.

Among families with four or more children, the happiness level reaches 66%, which is a very high figure. 80% of Russians are convinced that children give life a special meaning, 78% believe that children are a way to leave a legacy and pass on family traits, 75% note the important role of children in the emergence and preservation of family traditions.

At the same time, 40% of Russians want to have two children, 26% – three, 6% strive to have five or more children. 73% of citizens aim to preserve the family by finding compromises and do not allow divorce.

The strategic goal of society development is to increase the proportion of citizens who recognize family as the main value in life to 80% by 2030. Success in this largely depends on the media, which form values and public opinion at the level of emotional settings.

"Family is love, mutual understanding, support, a source of happiness and meaning in life, successful parenting that brings pleasure and joy, self-realization and experience. Only by joining forces can we create conditions in which family will truly become the main value for every person in our country. By demonstrating successful family models, a healthy attitude to parenting, and the positive experience of large families, we increase the value of the institution of family," said Tatyana Golikova.

She noted that today the image of a large family and, of course, a mother of many children is changing in the eyes of the public. A large family is associated with cohesion, responsibility, hard work, kindness, friendliness, and a mother of many children is associated with wisdom and happiness. And this is another aspect in which culture and media have a significant impact in strengthening traditional family values.

In addition, the role of the father in raising children and family life is changing, and involved fatherhood is becoming the norm. 71% of Russians believe that the father helps children grow up strong and successful.

The desire of young people to get on their feet – to build a career, get an education, buy a home – leads to postponing the creation of a family and having children.

"We are systematically building the state's social policy in such a way that the number of existing support measures removes most of the fears of future parents. A striking example of this is the growth in the number of student families, which indicates a positive trend. There are more than 25 thousand student families in Russia, of which 13 thousand families are already raising children," Tatyana Golikova emphasized.

The state offers a comprehensive system of support for families with children. All measures and programs of the national project "Family", which started on January 1, 2025, are aimed at building confidence in the future of each family. This is maternity capital, a single allowance, preferential housing programs, high-quality medicine for women and children, reproductive medical examination, free IVF, mother and child rooms in universities, assistance in finding or keeping a job, social payments.

At the same time, the development of cultural infrastructure continues within the framework of the national project "Family". The opportunity to spend leisure time with the whole family, get acquainted with the history and rich cultural heritage of the country, engage in creativity is a necessity for creating a strong and friendly family. In the coming years, 420 libraries will receive modern equipment, 100 theaters will be reconstructed, 255 museums will undergo modernization, 1200 cultural centers will receive a new life.

Tatyana Golikova noted the important task of culture and media – to convey family values, reduce anxiety and the feeling of “I can’t cope”, and show the supporting role of the state.

Last year, 20 films aimed at family audiences were released. Five of them grossed an impressive amount at the box office – more than a billion rubles. This speaks to the demand for family content in society.

In addition, the Deputy Prime Minister emphasized that culture and mass media are responsible for the negative influence on viewers, the transmission of anti-family values, the popularization of a childless lifestyle, the distortion of traditional family roles and the formation of an incorrect idea of marriage.

Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin held a meeting of the presidium (headquarters) of the Government Commission on Regional Development. Participants discussed preliminary results of work within the framework of the national project "Infrastructure for Life", issues of cash execution under programs, and also considered the next applications for financing projects with the involvement of funds from treasury infrastructure loans (TIL).

"The construction industry faces an important task of ensuring the availability of housing throughout the country, especially in key settlements, and linking this with the Spatial Development Strategy and master plans. In addition to maintaining the high rate of commissioning of multi-apartment and individual housing, it is important to continue working more actively to involve unused land plots into circulation, as well as to increase urban development potential. I ask the regions to more actively join these tasks. In general, the implementation of key indicators across the country is proceeding as usual. The Saratov and Penza regions, Perm Krai, the Republic of Tatarstan, Adygea, Buryatia, and the Chechen Republic consistently maintain high positions and are among the leaders in traffic lights. We see positive dynamics in road activities. Since the beginning of the year, almost 4 thousand km of regional and local roads have been commissioned, which is 676 km more than last year. 45 regions in the “green” zone, including Belgorod, Kaliningrad, Penza regions, the city of Sevastopol and the Republic of Mari El, have fulfilled the road paving plan,” said Marat Khusnullin.

In his report, Minister of Construction and Housing and Public Utilities Irek Faizullin spoke about the systemic work of the Russian Ministry of Construction to reduce the procedures of the investment and construction cycle, about the measures taken to prevent the growth of prices for construction resources and about the applications received from the regions to participate in the selection of infrastructure projects to receive treasury infrastructure loans for their implementation.

"To measure the duration of the investment and construction cycle, the Russian Ministry of Construction has introduced a monitoring system that allows for quarterly measurement of actual construction periods. Regions are developing and implementing comprehensive plans to reduce the procedures of the investment and construction cycle. The Russian Ministry of Construction has studied international experience, translated national standards of the People's Republic of China, which are planned to be included in the federal register by the end of the year," said Irek Faizullin.

During the meeting, the presidium of the government commission reviewed applications for treasury infrastructure loans. The curator of the CIC program is the Ministry of Construction of Russia, the operator is the public-law company "Fund for Development of Territories".

"All projects approved under the treasury infrastructure loans are important for the comprehensive development of regions and improving the standard of living of Russians. Most of the projects, after completion of the work, will help provide local residents with high-quality utilities, improve transport accessibility and the environment. A number of projects will be implemented in key settlements. Today, the headquarters approved 13 projects, including 28 objects in the Khabarovsk, Kamchatka, Zabaikalsky Krais, Ivanovo, Novgorod Regions, the Republics of Sakha (Yakutia) and Buryatia, for a total of 14.67 billion rubles. The projects will be provided within the limits for the modernization of housing and communal services, for the development of the Far Eastern Federal District and the Arctic, and for the implementation of large infrastructure projects on behalf of the President of Russia. In addition, within the framework of the competitive selection, 5 investment projects were considered in the Kaliningrad, Voronezh and Amur regions, Zabaikalsky Krai for a total CIC amount of about 16.9 billion rubles and, thus, the final list of 20 projects in 17 regions was approved. The total CIC amount for projects under the competition within the first stage amounted to about 77 billion rubles. The regional teams are now faced with the task of implementing the planned projects on time, because this determines how life in our regions will change in the coming years," noted Marat Khusnullin.

In particular, a treasury infrastructure loan in the amount of 2.68 billion rubles will be allocated for the construction of a water supply and sanitation system in Khabarovsk Krai.

869.18 million rubles will be allocated for the construction of 3 gas boiler houses and major repairs of intra-block heating networks in the territory of supporting settlements in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia).

In the Republic of Buryatia, a KIK in the amount of 838.59 million rubles was approved for the construction of a water pipeline, major repairs of sewer collectors and heating networks in Ulan-Ude, and the modernization of two heat distribution systems in small settlements.

In the Ivanovo region, 775.86 million rubles will be allocated for the major repairs of the 876 m long sewer main in Ivanovo.

In Kamchatka Krai, 363 million rubles of KIK have been approved for the construction of a sewage pumping station with the construction of water drainage networks for more than 17 thousand residents in the city of Elizovo.

In the Novgorod Region, the approved funds of the CIC in the amount of 6.49 billion rubles are planned to be used for the construction of a 682 km section of the Moscow-St. Petersburg high-speed railway, as well as for the construction of water supply and sanitation networks, including for prospective residential development.

Also, 2.65 billion rubles of KIC will be directed to the implementation of 5 projects under the long-term plans of the Far Eastern Federal District in the Trans-Baikal Territory, where it is planned to build the Siberian and Smolensk water intakes, improve the embankment of the Chita River, and build and reconstruct heat, water supply and sanitation networks for 69 thousand people.

Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko took part in the plenary session “Demography 2.0. Reboot” as part of the Forum of Social Innovations of the Regions, which is being held in Moscow from September 11 to 13.

President Vladimir Putin sent a welcoming speech. Its text was read by the Presidential Plenipotentiary Representative in the Central Federal District Igor Shchegolev: "The agenda of this forum focuses on a wide range of issues related to demographic policy. I would like to emphasize that improving the demographic situation, supporting the birth rate, improving the quality of life of people, promoting the values of a large, large family is a priority national task."

The plenary session was also attended by the Chairperson of the Federation Council Valentina Matviyenko, the Mayor of Moscow Sergei Sobyanin, the Head of the Republic of Mordovia, Chairman of the State Council Commission on Family Artem Zdunov, the Minister of Health Mikhail Murashko, the Minister of Labor and Social Protection Anton Kotyakov, the Head of the Federal Medical and Biological Agency Veronika Skvortsova, the Chairman of the State Development Corporation VEB.RF Igor Shuvalov and others.

Valentina Matvienko noted that 10 years have passed since the first forum: "During this time, both the scale of the forum and its authority have grown significantly. Also, the innovative solutions that were tested at the forum have become widespread at both the regional and federal levels."

Dmitry Chernyshenko conveyed best wishes from Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin.

The Deputy Prime Minister emphasized that President Vladimir Putin defined the realization of each person's potential, the development of their talents, and the education of a patriotic and socially responsible person as one of the national goals. Its achievement is facilitated by the national project "Youth and Children".

"We understand that it is impossible to raise a harmoniously developed personality without family values. According to a survey by the Ministry of Education and Science and VTsIOM, 68% of Russian students are confident that starting a family, having and raising children is the most important, necessary goal of a person. Our task is to create conditions for this. The majority of respondents plan to have children – 72%," the Deputy Prime Minister noted.

He added that the development of scientific, technological and educational spheres, youth policy activities help to overcome barriers that worry young people: financial and housing conditions for supporting a family, as well as combining work with raising children.

Thus, over the past 5 years, about 1.7 thousand kindergartens and more than 1.6 thousand schools have been built in the country, and about 5 thousand schools have been renovated, which has made it possible to increase the availability of preschool education and eliminate the third shift in schools.

The Deputy Prime Minister noted the importance of developing children's recreation infrastructure. This summer, about 40 thousand children's camps were operating, in which about 6 million people rested. One of the key tasks for this year is the development of regional resource centers for children's recreation. The annual funding volume for the program to modernize the infrastructure of children's camps has been increased from 2 billion to 3 billion rubles.

Dmitry Chernyshenko emphasized that thanks to the initiative and personal participation of Valentina Matvienko, the program for the construction of prefabricated buildings is being implemented. By the end of this year, 255 residential modules for 12.5 thousand places will be built, and 98 facilities, including canteens and medical centers, will be renovated.

The Deputy Prime Minister spoke about expanding the availability of secondary vocational education (SVE). In 2025, 62% of ninth-graders will continue their education in colleges. This year, Moscow became one of three pilot regions where the law on expanding the availability of SVE is being implemented.

The higher education system has also reached an unprecedented level of accessibility: since 2020, the number of budget places has increased by almost 45 thousand, with about 73% of them being in regional universities.

Thanks to the support of Valentina Matvienko, the first All-Russian Festival of Student Families was held in July of this year, where support measures were discussed in detail.

"The theme of family values will certainly be reflected in the new education strategy that we are developing on the instructions of our President. Valentina Ivanovna, I thank you and the senators for your great attention to the preparation of this fundamental document. At the Federation Council, under your chairmanship, we considered strategic directions for the development of education in the context of modern challenges. The new tasks of the education system are directly related to the demographic agenda. The government will continue to work in this direction," Dmitry Chernyshenko emphasized.

According to Sergei Sobyanin, by exchanging best practices and solutions in the social sphere with other regions, Moscow helps solve their problems and gains experience itself. This allows improving the quality of social services and developing new projects. He also spoke about social support for large families and elderly citizens, about demography, and the development of education.

Denis Manturov held a meeting of the Supervisory Board of the Murmansk Arctic University.

First Deputy Prime Minister Denis Manturov held a meeting of the Supervisory Board of the Murmansk Arctic University (MAU). The event was attended by the Governor of the Murmansk Region Andrei Chibis.

Denis Manturov noted the successful conduct of the admission campaign. The number of applications for admission has doubled compared to 2024, and young people from 50 subjects of the Russian Federation, including the Donetsk and Lugansk People's Republics, expressed a desire to study at MAU.

"The educational and social infrastructure of the university has been significantly updated for the new academic year. 30 new facilities have been put into operation, and ten more are planned for commissioning in the coming months. The total funding for this item in 2025 will be about 740 million rubles – these are almost entirely extra-budgetary funds attracted through industrial partners," Denis Manturov noted.

The meeting participants discussed the progress of the university development program in 2025.

"The canteen in the main building of the MAU has undergone major repairs and has been equipped. We have opened a training complex for the fight for the ship's survivability – the first stage of the Coastal Training and Simulator Center. This is the only such complex among Russian civilian maritime universities, and from this year it will already accept cadets. It is important not to slow down the gained pace," said Andrey Chibis.

The First Deputy Prime Minister outlined the key task until 2030 – the creation of a world-class campus in Murmansk, which will become a center for training personnel for the development of Arctic territories.

Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko launched a series of thematic programs “Platform of the Future: 100 Projects of Russia” at the National Center “Russia”. They are dedicated to the results in achieving the national development goals established by Decree No. 309 of the President of Russia Vladimir Putin.

The cycle of eight meetings, which will run from September to December 2025, will be dedicated to the presentation of key initiatives covering the social sphere, infrastructure, ecology, industry, economy and culture.

Dmitry Chernyshenko spoke about projects for children and youth within the framework of the national goal “Realization of the potential of each person, development of their talents, education of a patriotic and socially responsible individual.”

"Our actions together will determine how much the future will correspond to the image of the result set by President Vladimir Putin. The head of state defined it in the form of national development goals for Russia until 2030. The most important and special thing is the realization of the potential of each person. Our task is to create conditions so that you want to study, study, create, develop in the areas that interest you. This year, on the instructions of the President, a new national project "Youth and Children" was launched, and it included 183 events that provide more than a hundred – I think, thousands of opportunities," said Dmitry Chernyshenko.

The Deputy Prime Minister noted that the Government is building a comprehensive support system that covers various areas. These include the creation of reliable basic living conditions, the development of educational infrastructure at all levels – from kindergarten to postgraduate studies, broad opportunities for development and self-realization, volunteer and socially useful activities.

Thus, over the past five years, 1.7 thousand schools have been built and more than 5 thousand have been renovated. By 2030, another 12 advanced schools and at least 25 world-class university campuses should be created (at least 40 by 2036). The “Professionality” program is already being implemented throughout the country.

Dmitry Chernyshenko spoke about the wide range of opportunities for self-realization of young people in Russia, which are provided, among other things, by the presidential platform "Russia – the Country of Opportunities", the development program "Another Thing", as well as 17 year-round youth educational centers. Rosmolodezh forums are held throughout the country in various areas, this year there are 27 of them.

In addition, the "Big Change" is held – a competition of the "Movements of the First". This is the most massive children's and youth movement in Russia, with over 12 million participants.

Young people can also become participants in a large-scale volunteer movement. More than 1,000 “Dobro.Centers” and about 3,500 headquarters have been opened across the country.

"Your energy, determination, desires and talent of youth are the main resource of our country, which will help us achieve the goals set by the President. Therefore, dare, create, search, try – the road will definitely be mastered by the one who walks! You will succeed. We boldly look to the future and move forward!" – said the Deputy Prime Minister.

The presentation of projects aimed at achieving national goals and included in the national project "Youth and Children" was held by the heads of ministries and departments, as well as the heads of specialized public organizations. They are aimed at revealing the potential and developing the talents of each person, as well as raising patriotic and socially responsible citizens who deeply respect and preserve the traditional spiritual, moral, cultural and historical values of the country.

Minister of Education Sergey Kravtsov presented the “Ticket to the Future” project, thanks to which a unified model of early career guidance is in effect in schools.

"We are implementing the course "Russia – My Horizons" in all schools for more than 8.5 million students in grades 6-11. Starting from the 2025/2026 academic year, a regional career guidance program will be approved in each region. It takes into account the needs of the labor market of a particular region and local employers. More than 6 million schoolchildren have registered on the single portal for career guidance for schoolchildren "Ticket to the Future" since 2021. Students have completed over 13 million career guidance diagnostics. We strive to actively attract employers, and more than 13 thousand are already participating in career choice events," said Sergey Kravtsov.

The head of Rosmolodezh Grigory Gurov noted that from September 17 to 21, the World Youth Festival will take place in Nizhny Novgorod, which will bring together 2,000 participants from Russia and 120 countries.

"International youth cooperation is one of the main areas of our work within the framework of the largest national project "Youth and Children", which provides opportunities for self-realization for 50 million young people. A separate federal project "Russia in the World" is dedicated to this. The World Youth Festival, which last year brought together 20 thousand young people from 190 countries, opened a new stage in the development of cooperation with other countries. On behalf of the President of Russia, the legacy of the WYF is preserved and expanded. New projects that we are implementing together with our foreign partners are designed to show that Russia is a country of opportunities, where every person can realize their talents, make their dreams come true," said Grigory Gurov.

Deputy Minister of Science and Higher Education Denis Sekirinsky recalled that Russian President Vladimir Putin set the task of ensuring the country's global leadership in science, technology and innovation. Thus, in the science city of Koltsovo in the Novosibirsk Region, the Center for Collective Use "Siberian Ring Photon Source" (SKIF) is being built. It is a complex of 34 buildings and structures, as well as engineering and technological equipment, ensuring the implementation of scientific research on synchrotron radiation beams.

"Without science, it is impossible to build the present and especially the future of the country. The creation of megascience class installations, such as SKIF, is one of the key tools on the path to achieving technological leadership and competitiveness of our country on the world stage," Denis Sekirinsky emphasized.

The main strategic theme of the business program of the All-Russian Occupational Safety Week 2025 is "National Preservation – a Guarantee of Sustainable Development". The forum will bring together over 10 thousand managers and specialists from federal and regional authorities, leading employers, representatives of trade unions, the scientific and expert community to develop consolidated solutions on current issues of ensuring safe working conditions and maintaining the health of workers.

As Deputy Prime Minister and Chairperson of the VNOT Organizing Committee Tatyana Golikova noted, the central theme of the anniversary week is more relevant than ever in light of the implementation of the new national project and the tasks of strengthening human capital.

"In the context of solving strategic tasks to strengthen human capital, the All-Russian Occupational Safety Week is of particular importance. It is a key platform for developing solutions that directly affect one of the main goals of the national project "Personnel" – preserving the lives and health of workers. Saving the people is not an abstract goal, but specific work on introducing modern safety standards at every workplace. The sustainable development of our economy and the well-being of every citizen of Russia depend on how effectively we use the best practices and technologies presented here in Sirius," said Tatyana Golikova.

The forum programme includes plenary sessions and round tables devoted to the discussion of strategies for increasing labour productivity, issues of platform employment and achieving national goals in the field of human capital.

According to the Minister of Labor and Social Protection Anton Kotyakov, the successful implementation of national projects and the training of personnel needed by the economy in the future is impossible without close cooperation between the state and employers.

"This year we are launching the tenth anniversary All-Russian Occupational Safety Week. Our goal is to assess the changes that have occurred over the year, to talk about the opportunities that have been added to the social and labor sphere. Thanks to our concerted efforts, against the backdrop of the growing importance of labor protection as a factor in the attractiveness of jobs and saving working time, we see positive dynamics. The result achieved in recent years has become possible due to many years of constructive interaction between all parties involved in the work at the VNOT forum: businesses, government agencies, employers and trade unions. This year, VNOT is planned to be visited by over 10 thousand people, including over 2 thousand guests from foreign countries. The business program includes over 150 events dedicated to current issues of labor protection and employment. About 200 companies will take part in the industry exhibition of the forum. The VNOT platform, which traditionally brings together representatives of leading Russian companies, is the best place for dialogue and development of solutions on these issues," emphasized Anton Kotyakov.

According to the Advisor to the President of Russia Anton Kobyakov, the agenda of the All-Russian Occupational Safety Week is becoming more and more extensive every year, and its international component is growing from year to year.

"Over the years of its existence, the All-Russian Occupational Safety Week has evolved from a conference into the country's main forum on social protection, occupational safety, industrial safety and other issues of supporting working people. About 10 thousand participants are expected at the anniversary forum, and it is planned to increase the number of foreign guests, manufacturing, consulting companies and participants in the exhibition of manufacturers of personal protective equipment," he noted.

The All-Russian Occupational Safety Week will open with Youth Day. Its program includes career quizzes, master classes on developing flexible skills, networking and case championships aimed at attracting young specialists to the industry and forming a personnel reserve. On the same day, September 15, a meeting of the BRICS network of countries on occupational safety will be held, which emphasizes the importance of the practical implementation of political dialogue and the establishment of business ties between Russian and international companies on the sidelines of the forum.

The central event of the anniversary week will be the strategic plenary session on September 16. The session will focus on systemic issues of increasing labor productivity through the prism of safety, challenges of platform employment, as well as national development goals in the field of human capital. Participants will discuss the integration of approaches to labor protection into the overall strategy of the country's socio-economic development, measures to reduce professional risks and create a culture of prevention in production.

The forum will pay special attention to the digital transformation of occupational safety. This topic will be covered in separate sessions, such as "Safety Technologies: Digital Transformation in Occupational Safety and Human Resources Management" and "Innovative Digital Solutions to Achieve Zero Injuries", focusing on practical tools.

A significant block of the program is addressed to small and medium businesses. Entrepreneurs will be offered step-by-step algorithms for building occupational safety management systems, analysis of economic aspects, features of conducting a special assessment of working conditions and organizing training taking into account limited resources.

At the session "New approaches to the risk-oriented model of supervision in the sphere of labor", experts together with representatives of control and supervisory authorities will discuss the evolution of the supervision system aimed at preventing violations. Special attention will be paid to the issues of accident investigation and law enforcement practice.

Also at VNOT-2025, special attention will be paid to modern personal protective equipment (PPE) as an important element of the labor protection system. Experts will discuss the risks associated with poor-quality PPE at a thematic session with the participation of regulatory authorities and business representatives. A spectacular event will be a fashion show of PPE, demonstrating that protective clothing can be not only functional, but also stylish. The latest PPE developments will be presented at a large-scale exhibition.

In addition, the program includes awarding the winners of all-Russian competitions in the field of labor protection. The forum will also pay attention to the development of human resources, including support measures provided by the national project "Personnel", and issues of maintaining the health of employees, including the introduction of health-saving technologies in production.

The decision will stimulate businesses developing the production of medicines in the country.

From January 1, 2026, a point system for assessing the level of localization of production in the pharmaceutical industry will come into effect in Russia. The decree on this was signed by Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin.

The main goal of introducing a new system for assessing the origin of goods is to expand the range of pharmaceuticals produced in Russia, as well as to create additional incentives for the development of the industry and the development of promising technologies for the production of medicines.

Starting from the new year, points will be awarded for establishing the production of medicines and pharmaceutical substances in the country. Products will be considered Russian upon collecting a certain number of points. The decision on this will be made by the Ministry of Industry and Trade.

Manufacturers whose products are recognized as Russian will gain access to government support instruments.

The scoring mechanism for confirming the production of industrial products in Russia was launched in 2015 and is currently in effect in many industries.

The document will be published.

“A lot of work is being done under the national project “Infrastructure for Life” to update the road network, including federal highways that take on heavy traffic and, as a result, a large load on the road surface. One of these highways is the R-22 “Caspian” highway, which connects the regions of the central and southern parts of Russia. Currently, various types of work are being carried out on the road. Thus, on the section from the 356th to the 371st km in the Tambov region, specialists are busy widening the roadway. The readiness of the facility has exceeded 50%, road workers are on schedule. The result of the work will be a four-lane road with an axial barrier fence, which will significantly reduce the risk of head-on collisions. The capacity of the section will increase to 26 thousand cars per day. I am confident that thanks to the systematic work and responsible approach of Rosavtodor, the team of the acting governor of the region Evgeny Pervyshov Tambov residents and users of the highway will receive a high-quality, updated section within the established time frame,” said Marat Khusnullin.

At present, all layers of road surface (except for the top) have been completed on 13 out of 15 km for two new lanes of the road, which are already used for traffic. Work has been fully completed on the construction of two turnaround loops, which provide a safe exit from the federal highway to the settlements of Fonvizino, Novospasskoye, Zavodskoy, Ilovay-Dmitrievskoye and Staroseslavino. The process of destructuring cement concrete slabs on the old two lanes of the road and the construction of a third turnaround loop are underway.

In addition, construction of bridge structures continues on this section. The installation of supports for the left half of the roadway of the railway overpass at the 359th km of the route has been completed. The specialists plan to expand the bridge over the Ilovai River to four traffic lanes this year.

"The issue of road quality for residents of the Tambov Region is one of the most important. We are improving the road network within the framework of national projects, federal and regional programs. The R-22 "Caspian" highway is of paramount importance for us. It provides transport links not only between the northern and southern territories of the region, but also with other subjects of the country. I am glad that the planned actions are being implemented and very soon another section of a modern comfortable highway will appear," commented the acting head of the Tambov Region, Yevgeny Pervyshov.

Completion of the major repairs of the 15-kilometer section of the R-22 “Caspian” highway is planned for 2026.

The work is being carried out by the Federal State Institution “Moscow-Volgograd Federal Highway Administration”, which is subordinate to Rosavtodor.
