Levchenko left the shipping company Eroshchenko without a pier, several routes will close

The East Siberian River Shipping Company announced the cessation of passenger transportation from the Rocket Pier in Irkutsk. The region’s minimum permits terminated the land agreement with the enterprise near the pier.

In 2017, the company stops passenger transportation carried out from the rocket marinage. Regular routes fall under the closure: “Irkutsk-Ust-Barguzin”, “Irkutsk-M, Tolstoy-Shumikha-M, half-Irkutsk (KBZD),“ Irkutsk-Little cats ”,“ Irkut-Little-Lacquarts-Irkutsk ”,“ Irkutsk-Bukhta Sandy ”, writes Teleinform.

“These are forced measures. The Ministry of Property Relations of the Irkutsk Region, unilaterally, without announcing the reasons, terminated the contract for the long -term lease of land near the Mount Rocket, where our berths and ROPs are located, on which vessel vessels are based. If there is no production base on the pier, we will not be able to go through service in front of the route, which means that passenger safety will suffer, ”they comment on the shipping company.

The East Siberian River Shipping Company is included in the structure of the Istland holding, the founder of which is the ex-governor Sergey Eroshchenko. Previously, repeated problems arose in his other company - "Angara". The company is engaged in flights to remote settlements of the region. Transportation was subsidized, but with the advent of Sergei Levchenko, the company faced delays in payments. Levchenko did not hide that he wanted to deprive the "hangar" of subsidies.

According to the data from the website of the Istland Group of Companies, the passenger flow on the vessels of the East Siberian river shipping company in 2016 amounted to 128 thousand people, somewhat reduced compared to 2015 data (133 thousand) in 2016, navigation began late due to low water. According to the Kontur-Focus base, the company's revenue in 2015 amounted to more than 702 million, profit-21.4 million rubles, there is no data for 2016.
