Bridge on Nemiga Street open, traffic in Minsk dowtown restored

11 февраля 2022
The bridge on Nemiga Street can withstand a double load.  This was stated by Chairman of Minsk City Executive Committee Vladimir Kukharev.  The traffic was restored late at night. Public transport has been running along the old routes since this morning. As for the overpass, it became higher and the roadway was widened.  

The overpass was built in a month, despite all the attempts to discredit the actions of the city administration, the builders and the road service workers.    Some of the statements by the authorities on restoring traffic in the shortest possible time were the cause for a heated discussion in the chats. In the end, the work was done flawlessly.

Comfortable infrastructure in the center of Minsk was restored. About 400 people worked at the site. Special attention was paid to the elements of the power structure. Those are piers and slabs. They are made of modern reinforced materials, with sufficient precision to withstand the load on the overpass. The drivers appreciated the new structure. The new structure is designed for single load of 200 tons, which is 45% more than before. 

Bridge builders will redirect their forces to the planned repair of overpasses in the capital. The overpasses at Zhukova Avenue and Zheleznodorozhnaya Street, as well as in Vaupshasova and Moskovskaya Street, are waiting for restoration. In total, there are over a hundred bridges and overpasses over the roads in Minsk. All of them will soon be inspected and examined, and if necessary, they will begin to be prepared for repair.
