A government commission met to coordinate efforts to eliminate the consequences of the emergency caused by the tanker disaster in the Kerch Strait.

Work to eliminate the consequences of the oil spill following the tanker accident in the Kerch Strait continues.

Monitoring is underway in the Black Sea, as well as the coasts of the Krasnodar Krai and the Republic of Crimea. No new oil spills have been recorded over the past week. Satellite images of the Black Sea tanker wrecks have revealed no confirmed oil spills.

Since the beginning of the work, more than 185,000 tons of contaminated sand and soil have been collected. More than 3,000 kilometers of coastline have been cleaned, including secondary cleanups. In total, more than 179,000 tons of contaminated sand and soil have been disposed of by specialized organizations or recycled.

The combined group of forces and resources involved in eliminating the consequences of the emergency consists of 764 people and 184 units of equipment.

By the end of 2025, under the "Infrastructure for Life" national project, nearly 38 km of roads leading to airports and airfields on the regional and local road network have been reconstructed and repaired, including major repairs, reported Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin.

"In Russia, extensive work continues to upgrade airports and create the necessary infrastructure. One important area is improving the roads leading to airports. This improves travel comfort, whether people are heading on vacation, on business trips, or visiting family. Furthermore, high-quality roads leading to airports facilitate the reliable operation of transport hubs, uninterrupted cargo delivery, and increased tourism. Therefore, this is a matter of both quality of life and the efficiency of the country's transportation system. In 2025, under the national project "Infrastructure for Life," 16 regional and local road networks leading to airports and airfields were brought up to standard. Their total length is 37.7 km. In many regions, these projects were completed ahead of schedule. It is important to maintain this trend," noted Marat Khusnullin.

Upgraded roads to airports mean more convenient logistics, stronger interregional connections, and increased population mobility.

"Developing air travel between the regions of our vast country is one of our priorities. Large-scale work is currently underway across the country to construct and modernize airport terminal buildings and runways, equipping them with state-of-the-art equipment. At the same time, we are also bringing access roads to airports up to standard. In 2026, thanks to the national project "Infrastructure for Life," modernization and renovation of roads leading to or included in routes to airports and airfields are planned at 13 sites in the regional and local road network. Their total length will be 34 km," said Transport Minister Andrei Nikitin.

It should be noted that the approaches to the airports are part of the backbone network of Russian highways.

"Airport access roads are a vital component of the backbone network—the transport framework that ensures our country's connectivity. Overall, by the end of 2025, the share of backbone roads in good condition reached 75%, compared to the planned 70.5%," said Kairat Tursunbekov, Deputy Head of the Federal Road Agency.

In 2025, major reconstruction work on 2.8 kilometers of Aidamirova Street was completed in Grozny, the capital of the Chechen Republic. This is part of the route to the Akhmad-Khadji Kadyrov International Airport. During the reconstruction, the roadway was widened to six lanes, 125 outdoor lighting poles, 11 traffic lights, and 400 road signs were installed, and 600 trees were planted. Crews also built a 68-linear-meter bridge across the Neftyanka River, and the approaches to it were straightened.

Additionally, the new road construction season will see the completion of the 2.3-kilometer reconstruction of a section of road along Aerovokzalnaya Street. This is a direct access road to the Akhmat-Khadzhi Kadyrov International Airport.

One of the significant projects under the national project in the Amur Region is the reconstruction of the Blagoveshchensk-Bibikovo highway. The road connects the villages of the Blagoveshchensk Municipal District with the regional capital and leads to the N.N. Muravyov-Amursky Blagoveshchensk Airport. Passenger traffic here has nearly tripled over the past five years, so it's important to create a convenient access route to the airport.

The reconstruction of the regional airport highway began in 2025 and will be completed in four stages. During construction and installation, the roadway will be widened to four lanes, traffic flows will be separated by barriers, and a new lighting system will be installed. The project also includes two roundabouts at the turnoff to Chigiri and at the intersection with Klubnichnaya Street in Blagoveshchensk. The main work on the section of the first stage, from km 16 to 17, running through the village of Aeroport, was completed in 2025.

This year, repairs will continue on a 1.7-kilometer section of road along Shiryamova Street in Irkutsk. This is a direct route to Irkutsk International Airport, which is connected by air with 50 Russian cities and seven countries: Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Mongolia, Thailand, China, and Vietnam. Since 2021, passenger traffic at the region's main air hub has doubled, and in 2025, the airport will serve 4 million passengers for the first time in its history. Roadwork began last year on the runways leading to the terminal. Road crews replaced storm drains, widened approaches to the terminal, and repaved sidewalks and roadways. This year, work will begin on the opposite side.

The Interdepartmental Commission for Review of Unfinished Capital Construction Projects has decided to remove 34 unfinished construction projects from the list due to the implementation of adopted measures and to include eight new projects. This was announced by Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin.

"We are consistently working to reduce the number of frozen construction projects in our country, which sit idle for years and spoil the appearance of communities. Systematic work has been established on this issue at all levels of government, allowing for prompt decisions on problematic projects. For example, another 34 unfinished construction projects have been removed from the register due to the implementation of previously adopted management decisions. These projects were either completed, demolished, and the area landscaped, or transferred to new owners who will complete construction. Therefore, 755 projects are currently included in the register. The Presidium of the Government Commission on Regional Development has made management decisions on most of these projects, including 373 projects that will be completed," said Marat Khusnullin.

The Deputy Prime Minister noted that this work facilitates the commissioning of important public facilities, the construction of which was financed with budget funds. This, in turn, helps improve quality of life and stimulates regional development.

According to Deputy Minister of Construction and Housing and Public Utilities Yuri Gordeev, the Russian Ministry of Construction will work to reduce the number of unfinished construction projects starting in 2022.

"During this period, 10 meetings of the interdepartmental commission were held. Currently, 142 properties have been removed from the federal register thanks to the implementation of decisions of the Presidium of the Government Commission on Regional Development. Of these, 39 properties have been demolished, 51 completed, 39 privatized, and 13 transferred to the regions," noted Yuri Gordeyev.

To be included in the federal register of unfinished capital construction projects, the principal administrators of federal budget funds submit information about such projects to the Russian Ministry of Construction. The data is then verified by an interdepartmental commission. Inclusion of a project in the federal register allows the presidium of the government commission for regional development to decide whether to complete the project, privatize it, transfer it to management, or demolish it.
