“Zaporozhstal” Steel Works repaired more than 6 km2 of city automobile road on section “Ring of Diagonal highway – Severnoye highway – Zaporozhskiy river port” with the purpose of securing reliable and safe work of automobile transport, including freight transport. Financing of major repair of city highway amounted to 3 million UAH.
In the course of major repair, performed by contractor organizations LLC “Center of construction technologies” and PC “Promtechservice”, old worn out automobile roadway covering on the roads and railway crossings had been replaced by new asphaltic concrete pavement, border stones also had been replaced along the road. Roadway covering was placed in accordance with effective standards and with the use of up- to- date high quality materials for the road construction. 1400 tons of ballast, 1825 tons of bitumen concrete, 1125 long meters of border stone had been used for the purposes of road repair.
Renewed road way significantly improves logistics of automobile and freight transport, makes transport infrastructure of Zaporozhye streamlined, safe and convenient. The new roadway matches to present-day requirements and properties, it could stand high transport loading and permits to forward the freight transport bypassing the main highways of the city, decreasing the loading on central motor-roads of Zaporzhye.
It should be noted, that repair of the road had not been done during several decades. Poor state of the roadway complicated the movement of freight transport means, transferring the raw materials, component parts, finished products of industrial enterprises.
