The bridge to the Crimea through the Kerch Strait can be made paid

The project of the transition through the Kerch Strait, which will have to connect Crimea with the Krasnodar Territory, was added to the development program of the Avtodor state -owned company, which is engaged in paid highways in Russia. After the technical and economic justification of the construction is ready, it will be decided whether the motorists will have to pay for the crossing of the crossing, the AutoneWS website with reference to RBC reports.

Avtodor should develop a feasibility study of the construction of a transport transition through the Kerch Strait, including a scheme for financing construction. It will depend on this whether the fare for the bridge will be charged.

As previously reported by the head of Avtodor Sergey Kelbakh, by 2020 the bridge should skip about 11 thousand cars and 20 pairs of trains per day.

The idea of ​​building a bridge across the Kerch Strait was discussed by Ukrainian and Russian politicians for more than 10 years. In 2010, an agreement was signed on the construction of the bridge, but these plans were not implemented. The new agreement was signed in December 2013.
