By winter, driving in the capital will be easier to make the Moscow government to make November for a month of new discoveries and partial liberation of the capital from traffic jams. Already in the first days of the month, a large car interchange should open at the intersection of Begovaya Street with Leningradsky Prospekt, which, in particular, will help to unload the third transport ring. According to the head of the operational and administrative department of the capital mayor Sergei Veselovsky, the movement on the denouement will begin on November 7. Another automobile denouement will be put into operation even earlier: according to the plans of the Moscow Mayor, Yuri Luzhkov, on October 29, will be launched in a tunnel under the Suspevsky rampart, connecting the Sovetskaya Army Street with Sheremetyevskaya Street. Immediately after the opening, the movement in a small laying in a length of almost 800 meters will be carried out in four lanes, but by November 4 it is planned to open another lane on each side.The fact that there will be no delays with discoveries, says yesterday's launch of the interchange in the area of Novy Bashilovka Street and Leningradsky Prospekt. In accordance with the plan of city road construction, it also had to become part of the opening epic only in November. However, apparently, road builders decided to make a gift to the metropolitan drivers earlier, only having coincided with this to the approaching day of road workers. Eyewitnesses, who were the first to pass at the congress that opened, told Gazeta that according to their feelings, the road was built in order to fly along it.
After the construction of the city authorities is completed, the denouement will look like this: at the intersection of Begovaya Street with Leningradsky Prospekt, a tunnel will be held, in which, instead of two, five lanes on each side. In addition, there will be a reversal overpass when moving from the region to the center and a congress from the streets of Novy Bashilovka, Begovaya and Leningradsky Prospekt in all directions. They did not forget to take care of pedestrians: the day they will open three underground and one ground transition.
Then a hole, then a ditch
However, fighting with Moscow traffic jams with the help of new overpasses and interchanges, the city government has to not forget about old roads. In this year alone, according to the head of the Department of Housing and Communal Services and the improvement of Arthur Keskinov, the current repair was carried out at 3.9 million square meters. meters of roads, another 5.5 million square meters. Meters of road surface were subjected to overhaul.
However, daily raids on metropolitan roads reveal on average 800-900 pits and wells that do not fit into the requirements for the quality of the tracks. Only last weekend customer services, orders were issued for the elimination of 222 local destruction of the carriageway. According to the head of the association of the Moscow administrative and technical inspectorates Ivan Ishchenko, out of 143 violations in the maintenance of hatches 46 were eliminated on the same day, another 97 still remain under control and will be corrected within three days. At the same time, with the approximation of winter, work on patching road holes is coming to an end: capital and current repairs will now continue only in the spring. According to the plans of the housing and communal services department, next year will be put in order about 12 million square meters. meters of tracks.
Beneficial chemistry
Have you seen traffic jams longer than after the first snow in Moscow? Drivers of minibuses still recall the beginning of last winter, when the deaf traffic jam on the Moscow Ring Road dragged on until five in the morning and the metropolitan traffic police had to wake some motorists desperate to come home. However, the metropolitan authorities promise that this year there will be no traffic jams due to snow.
According to the capital's department of housing and communal services, several tons of liquid and solid reagents were prepared to clear snow drifts on the roads. So, 30% of the winter stock of liquid reagents and 50% solid have already been brought to the warehouses. Moreover, according to Arthur Keskinov, the reagents that will be used this winter will not only harm plants and shoes, but also have a beneficial effect on them. “They contain potassium, which is a good fertilizer for green spaces, and magnesium, the effect of which has a beneficial effect on leather products, so that it will not be scary to pour it at public transport stops,” Keskinov explained. For sidewalks and courtyards, the capital's authorities have already prepared several tons of crushed stone.
Road equipment intended for clearing streets should also be enough. According to the head of the housing and communal services department, this year 5,800 units of equipment will be released to fight snow drifts. At the same time, Arthur Keskinov is ready to fight with violators of parking rules without compromises. “For the sake of cleanliness of the streets, we will accustom motorists to order. The evacuation of cars for the wrong parking will be free, the first hours on the penalty park, most likely, too. But, as a rule, wealthy people are the most malicious violators, therefore, if they forget about their cars, after a certain hour we will include counters - this will accustom to discipline, ”Keskinov said. At the request of the metropolitan mayor, the program for the evacuation of violators of the parking rules should be completed by November 1, so from November 2 it is worth carefully looking at the signs in the parking lot.
