The Russian construction complex contributes to the growth of tourist attractiveness of the reunited regions, making the roads to the sea convenient, comfortable and safe. Thus, in the DPR they are restoring more than 100 km of the Donetsk-Novoazovsk-Sedovo highway, including three bridges with a total length of about 170 m, Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin reported.

"A developed road network becomes a driver of growth of the tourism potential of the reunited regions, stimulating the progress of related industries. In this context, the roads leading to the sea play an important role. For example, the Donetsk-Novoazovsk-Sedovo highway is one of the main tourist routes in the DPR, which provides access to the resorts of the Sea of Azov. Specialists are bringing more than 100 km of this highway into compliance with the regulations, including three bridges. Now their readiness is 50%," the Deputy Prime Minister said.

The work is being carried out under the supervision of specialists from the State Company "Avtodor". Its completion is scheduled for the end of 2025.

"We are putting in order three bridges of strategic importance for the region. They all have their own characteristics. Thanks to artificial structures across the Shirokaya ravine, the Berestovaya and Kalmius rivers, transport accessibility of the territories and uninterrupted traffic are ensured. To date, we have completed a significant amount of work, including the construction of a pile field, a grouting layer, grillages, pillars, beams and more. Now at these sites we are reinforcing the inter-beam joints, backfilling cones, preparing surfaces for applying waterproofing, there is still a lot of work ahead," said the head of the state company Avtodor Vyacheslav Petushenko.
