Deputy Prime Minister Vitaly Savelyev and Minister of Transport Andrey Nikitin familiarized themselves with the key developments of the advanced engineering school "High Speed Rail Academy" of the Russian University of Transport.

The Academy was opened in December 2023 following the selection results within the framework of the federal project of the Ministry of Education and Science of Russia "Advanced Engineering Schools". The following areas of work are currently being implemented at the Academy: training of engineering personnel and specialists of the new generation, scientific, technical and expert support for the first high-speed highway – HSR-1 Moscow – St. Petersburg at the design and construction stage, the formation of an innovative base for the development of the country's transport industry.

The Deputy Prime Minister and the Minister were shown a digital model of the Moscow-St. Petersburg HSR section, created by students and teachers as part of an end-to-end engineering project. The digital model of the main infrastructure elements of the highway (railway track, roadbed, artificial structures, etc.) allows for an assessment of identified collisions at the design stage.

In the situation center, Vitaly Savelyev and Andrey Nikitin got acquainted with the construction monitoring system, which combines data from online cameras, UAV footage, satellite images and orthophoto plans of the high-speed railway construction sites. The data is updated in real time and shows the progress of work, the number of equipment and specialists, the use of funding and the results of eliminating expert comments.

Scientists from the High-Speed Railway Academy have presented the first measuring complex in Russia for monitoring the geometry of high-speed highway tracks. A special trolley, tested in real conditions, records the slightest deviations of the track from the design.

"The HSR Academy of the Russian University of Transport is a unique scientific center for training highly qualified specialists who will be in demand on HSR lines. Serious technological and personnel potential is being formed here, which will set trends in the development of the country's transport complex," noted Vitaly Savelyev.

Today, 230 students are studying at the Academy in six educational programs. Another 370 students will undergo training in additional professional courses by the end of 2025. The first intake took place in the summer of 2024 – 50 best third-year students from five transport universities in Russia.

The academy's infrastructure includes a multifunctional campus with 34 workplaces, three specialized educational spaces and two educational laboratories. This allows students to work in conditions as close as possible to real engineering practice.

"It is important that the implementation of scientific projects of the High Speed Rail Academy is carried out with the involvement of high-tech partners: JSC Russian Railways, Sinara – Transport Machines, the Moscow City Department of Transport. That is, this is not only research, but also testing of their results in practice with real customers of these projects," emphasized Andrey Nikitin.

An indicator of a modern and developing city is a high-quality road infrastructure, therefore, in the reunited regions, along with the construction and restoration of large road facilities, the street and road network of cities is being updated. For example, in Mariupol DPR, under the control of the State Company "Avtodor", 26 city streets with a total length of 36 km were brought into compliance with the normative condition. This was reported by Deputy Chairman of the Government Marat Khusnullin.

"Thanks to the repaired roads, it is possible to unite the city's districts into a single transport network, redirect traffic, and as a result, the lives of city residents become more comfortable, and trips along the updated routes are safer and more convenient. Today, for example, Mariupol is developing dynamically and does not stop changing before our eyes. This also applies to the street and road network. As part of the Avtodor program, major repairs have been completed there on 36 km of 26 streets, including sections to socially significant facilities: schools and hospitals," said the Deputy Prime Minister.

The Deputy Prime Minister added that the work was carried out without blocking traffic and in compliance with all safety measures.

"Major repairs were carried out on Varganova, Kazantseva, Novosibirskaya streets, where schools are located, and on Gagarina, where the city hospital is located. We also thought about pedestrians, and for their comfort, about 70 bus stops and traffic lights were installed, and about 50 km of outdoor lighting was installed," said Vyacheslav Petushenko, Chairman of the Board of the state-owned company Avtodor.

Denis Manturov congratulated the employees and veterans of Rosstandart on the 100th anniversary of the agency.

Dear colleagues!

I congratulate you on the 100th anniversary of Rosstandart, an agency that has played a vital role in the economic development of our country for a century.

Since the establishment of the Standardization Committee on September 15, 1925, this area has become one of the most important state priorities. Unified standards have given impetus to the development of serial production, improved the quality of consumer goods, and strengthened the trust of citizens.

Today, Rosstandart is more than 16.5 thousand specialists who simultaneously continue the best traditions and implement modern approaches in the field of standardization. Every year, the agency approves over 1.7 thousand new GOSTs, covering both traditional industries and promising areas – hydrogen transport, artificial intelligence, quantum technologies.

The anniversary is not only a reason to evaluate the path taken over a hundred years, but also an opportunity to look to the future with confidence. I am confident that Rosstandart will continue to be a reliable support for the country's technological sovereignty, support for industry, science, small and medium businesses.

I thank everyone who has dedicated themselves to the cause of standardization. I wish you good health, new professional achievements and confidence in the future!

The establishment of this professional holiday emphasizes how important the selfless work of the Service’s workforce is.

For many years, scientists, hygienists, epidemiologists, microbiologists, virologists, and specialists have been fighting dangerous infectious diseases, monitoring the quality of water, air, and food products, and reliably protecting the health and lives of millions of citizens.

Today, Rospotrebnadzor is implementing large-scale projects, conducting research and development activities to develop unique tests and vaccines, and developing digital technologies. It ensures one of the highest levels of our country's readiness to respond to biological security threats. Within the framework of the federal program "Sanitary Shield of the Country", much is being done to prevent and identify unfavorable epidemiological situations. The automated information system monitors, allows assessing the risks of importation and spread of infectious diseases, and carrying out preventive measures. And of course, I would like to note the important contribution that you make to the formation of a healthy lifestyle for Russians.

On this festive day I want to thank you for your noble work, responsible attitude to professional duty. I wish you new successes and achievements, happiness, health, well-being to you and your loved ones.
