Specialists urban economy complex Road cleaning equipment has been switched to summer mode. This was announced by the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Housing, Utilities, and Public Works. Petr Biryukov.

"Due to the established positive average daily temperatures, the entire fleet of municipal vehicles has been switched to summer maintenance mode. To ensure daily city cleaning, watering equipment has been installed on the vehicles," noted Pyotr Biryukov.

Most municipal equipment operates year-round thanks to attachments that change depending on the specific needs of the season. Therefore, comprehensive preparation of road cleaning equipment for the spring and summer was carried out. Winter attachments—brushes, plows, rotors, and de-icing spreaders—were removed, followed by diagnostics and maintenance. Equipment that was not used during the winter was brought back into service and made ready for use.

The head of the city's infrastructure department emphasized that containers containing emergency supplies of de-icing materials have been moved to temporary storage facilities. These were previously placed at hazardous road sections and near transport, social, and commercial facilities.

The tunnel under Kashirskoye Highway will receive new markings and a changed traffic pattern.

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

The tunnel under Kashirskoye Highway will be remarked and converted to two-way traffic, according to a design by the Traffic Management Center (TMC). This will create convenient and faster routes for drivers and increase the tunnel's capacity. Currently, fewer than 250 vehicles pass through it per hour, according to the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Transport and Industry. Maxim Liksutov.

"Following Sergei Sobyanin's instructions, we continue to improve connectivity between certain city districts and create new convenient routes for drivers. This work is part of the 2030 Transport Development Strategy. In accordance with the TsODD project, we will change the markings in the tunnel under Kashirskoye Highway and create two-way traffic. This will allow drivers to bypass dense traffic areas and save travel time," noted Maxim Liksutov.

A new oncoming lane will be added to the tunnel, allowing drivers heading to the city center to exit Kashirskoe Shosse into the tunnel and change direction. The existing lanes, which allow drivers coming from the city center and entering the tunnel to turn around, will be maintained. Drivers will no longer need to pass through the intersection with Yasenevaya Street. This will reduce the extra travel time to 700 meters and save five to seven minutes. From the Moscow Ring Road and the A-105 highway, drivers will be able to enter the sixth microdistrict of Orekhovo-Borisovo Yuzhnoye through the tunnel, without reaching Yasenevaya Street. A direct exit to the region and the Moscow Ring Road will also be created from the bus terminal, bypassing the intersection. Convenient access to the tunnel will be provided from the Kashirskoe Shosse alternate road and adjacent streets.

For driver safety and convenience, a roundabout will be created at the intersection of the alternate road and the exit ramp to the bus terminal, making it easier for vehicles to pass each other. The new markings will increase the turning radius when exiting the tunnel. This will allow drivers to directly exit onto Kashirskoye Highway toward the region or turn toward residential buildings without unnecessary maneuvering.

The new traffic pattern will make routes shorter and reduce congestion. After the re-marking, drivers will have a new, more convenient route: they won't have to travel through the busy intersection with Yasenevaya Street, and buses will be able to exit the platform and onto the highway more quickly.

The new route will become even more popular after the opening of Projected Passage No. 5388, which will connect Kashirskoye Highway with Gurevsky Passage.

New lanes, U-turns and turns

Since 2018, Moscow has been actively implementing traffic improvement projects. Narrowing lanes creates additional lanes for straight-ahead travel or for new turns and U-turns in areas where widening the roadway is difficult. Changing road markings improves traffic conditions without unnecessary expense or the need for lengthy lane closures. Furthermore, adding lanes is much faster than traditional road widening. This makes the method particularly suitable for dense traffic conditions, both in confined urban spaces and on busy highways.

On the Moscow Ring Road, lanes are added by slightly narrowing the edge lanes and eliminating shoulders (in some of the busiest sections). This allows more vehicles to travel through the sections in the same amount of time, eliminating the bottleneck effect. Transition lanes help make exits from the Moscow Ring Road and onto the highway safer. When a driver enters the highway, they must simultaneously accelerate and merge into the main traffic flow to avoid slowing down other vehicles. If at this point the exiting vehicle stops before changing lanes and slowly weaves into the right lane, this triggers a chain reaction of braking by other vehicles or a dangerous situation, which in any case leads to a decrease in speed both on the exit and in the outer lanes of the Moscow Ring Road. Transition lanes help mitigate this effect by preventing slowdowns in the transit lanes.

Fasting days and walks: Pallas's cat Timofey has started to bulk up for summer.

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

Pallas's cat Timofey has begun preparing for the warm season—fattening, the process of gradually losing weight accumulated over the winter. Pallas's cat is a favorite of visitors and the symbol of the Moscow Zoo, which is part of the capital's Department of Culture.

"We've developed a gradual weight-loss schedule for Timofey. He currently has one fasting day a week: typically, Sundays are his first day without food. On other days, the Pallas's cat is fed once a day, with a daily portion of approximately 150-170 grams. Zoologists carefully monitor his weight through regular weigh-ins: our goal is to make this process as smooth and natural as possible. We don't want the cat to be constantly hungry or stressed, so we calculate the approximate portion size: it should be small but sufficient for the animal's comfort," shared Svetlana Akulova, General Director of the Moscow Zoo.

In the wild, these animals accumulate fat reserves to survive harsh winters. The Pallas's cat began gaining weight with the arrival of autumn. Even before the cold weather set in, zoologists gradually increased his food intake, and by midwinter, Timofey's weight reached 6.5 kilograms. He now weighs 5.6 kilograms, and his diet includes rodents and quail.

The fattening process will be gradually adjusted: as early as May, the number of fasting days will increase to two per week. The process is expected to be completed by early summer.

With the arrival of sunny weather, Timofey's social behavior has also changed. He has begun to venture out of his house for fresh air more often. City residents can see him walking in his outdoor enclosure around nine in the morning, as well as during the day.

Anyone can also observe the wild cat thanks to the daily online broadcasts from his enclosure on mos.ru.

In addition, the Pallas's cat has begun to shed its thick undercoat; by June, its fur will acquire reddish hues.

Pallas's cats are rare feline predators listed on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. The Moscow Zoo is participating in a conservation and research program for this unique species.

Today, the Moscow Zoo is a dynamically developing space where scientific research is conducted, international conferences are held, educational programs are implemented, and a unique atmosphere is created daily for introducing residents and visitors to the amazing world of wildlife.

In early 2025, the Moscow Zoo set a world record for the number of animal species on display: 1,253. By 2026, that number had exceeded 1,280. This remarkable achievement was made possible by the many years of work of a team of zoologists, veterinarians, keepers, and other staff.

The premiere will take place on June 25. Tickets are available for purchase through Mosbilet.

The production centers not only on the tragic story of Anna Karenina, but also on the fate of Konstantin Levin, who journeys from inner crisis to finding peace of mind. The juxtaposition of destructive passion and the characters' creative quest will be the central theme of the new stage version.

"Now, as the play begins to take shape, I realize: we're not illustrating the novel, but creating a choreographic reflection of it. If, after the production, the audience asks themselves, 'Which path would I have chosen?' then we've succeeded in approaching the genius of Leo Tolstoy," noted Maxim Sevagin.

The composer was Ilya Demutsky, and the conductor was Timur Zangiev. A key part of the performance will be arias performed by a soloist from the theater's opera company.

The visual design was created by: artist Vladimir Arefyev, costume designer Irina Serova, and lighting designer Oleg Strashkin.

The production will also feature Oksana Kardash, Erika Mikirticheva, Anfisa Oshchepkova, Natalia Somov, Denis Dmitriev, Ivan Mikhalev, Georgi Smilevski, Irina Serova, and other artists.

The Moscow Longevity program helped 90 percent of participants improve their cognitive health.

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

Moscow has announced the annual results of an innovative program to preserve the cognitive skills of older adults. It is being implemented by the Moscow Longevity project and the Federal Medical and Biological Agency (FMBA of Russia). Over the course of the program, attention, memory, and thinking skills have improved in over 90 percent of participants, according to the program's team. Anastasia Rakova, Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Social Development.

"To stay in shape at any age, our brain, like our muscles, requires regular exercise. Developing memory, concentration, and thinking skills helps maintain a high quality of life, independence, activity, and emotional stability for years to come. That's why, a year ago, together with the Federal Medical and Biological Agency of Russia, we launched a program to support cognitive functions and psychoemotional well-being at Moscow's longevity centers. It's tailored specifically for older Muscovites. The project proved popular, but more importantly, it was extremely effective: over 57,000 people joined the courses, and the vast majority—over 90 percent—demonstrated measurable improvements in their memory and thinking. Furthermore, attention scores improved in 98 percent of participants," noted Anastasia Rakova.

The program includes two specialized courses: “Neurotraining of cognitive skills” and “Neurocorrection of the psycho-emotional state.”

The "Neurotraining of Cognitive Skills" course is based on specialized computer exercises aimed at developing memory, attention, and thinking. Research shows that such training helps the brain remain flexible and active, facilitating the formation of new neural connections. According to clinical guidelines from the Russian Ministry of Health, this training is included in the list of non-drug methods for correcting cognitive impairment in older adults and has a high level of evidence base.

The practical results of the program at Moscow's longevity centers confirm this. By the fifth session, participants demonstrate significant improvement across all indicators, and by the tenth session, the positive dynamics intensify.

Anxiety increases the body's levels of cortisol, the stress hormone. Over time, this can impair memory and concentration. The "Neurocorrection of the Psychoemotional State" course addresses this issue. People learn to calm down, focus, and better control their emotional state using biofeedback technology—and this works even in old age. Muscovites who completed the course more than doubled their relaxation scores. Furthermore, participants reported sleeping better, experiencing less anxiety, and finding it easier to cope with emotions in everyday life. On average, their stress scores decreased by a third.

"The successful implementation of our joint program over the course of a year confirms the highly effective translation of cutting-edge scientific advances into social practice. The specialized courses currently used at Moscow Longevity Centers are based on original digital products from the Center for Cognitive and Psychoemotional Health of the Federal Medical and Biological Agency of Russia. The use of biofeedback technologies, virtual and augmented reality, ensures our complete self-sufficiency in solving the most complex problems associated with restoring and strengthening cognitive and mental health. The results achieved—improved memory and attention in the vast majority of participants—clearly demonstrate the potential of preventive medicine in managing cognitive reserve. People, their health, life, and active longevity remain at the center of all our innovations," emphasized Veronika Skvortsova, head of the Federal Medical and Biological Agency.

The classes are taught by staff from Moscow Longevity Centers who have completed training at the Federal Medical and Biological Agency's Center for Cognitive Health. The "Neurotraining of Cognitive Skills" course includes initial testing and 10 computer-based sessions with an individualized program and performance tracking. "Neurocorrection of the Psychoemotional State" is conducted using a neuroheadset that records the brain's bioelectrical activity. Participants see their brain activity parameters in real time and master concentration and relaxation exercises.

Around seven thousand older Muscovites have improved their memory, thinking, and attention through neurotraining.Moscow's longevity centers are launching a program to maintain cognitive skills and psycho-emotional health.

You can take the courses at any Moscow Longevity Center. To do so, you must become a participant in the Moscow Longevity program. You can join the project online atmos.ru portal, onwebsite, as well as in person at any Moscow longevity center or My Documents office.

Teenagers were taught how to manage money through play. They learned how to distinguish momentary weaknesses from grand economic plans, learned about marketing pitfalls that can lead to unnecessary purchases, and even built a flower from a construction set, with each petal symbolizing a step toward a financial goal. Special attention was paid to a lesson on countering fraud. An expert discussed the rules of safe communication on social media, new fraudulent schemes, and explained how to install reliable protection on gadgets.

Interactive zones were open throughout the day in the lobby. Guests could test their knowledge with a financial assessment, practice financial literacy skills on VR simulators, catch scammers at a slot machine, take a neurotest, and take a quiz at the "That Very Sound" audio kiosk.
