Podilsko-Voskresensky Bridge in Kyiv is a new stage in the capital's infrastructure development - Shkil

The owner of the Autostrada group of companies Maksym Shkil spoke about the key stages of implementing an important infrastructure project - the launch of traffic through the Podilsko-Voskresensky Bridge, with the exception of freight transport. Thanks to the construction of the exit to Troyeshchyna, this facility has received new functional potential.

According to Maksym Shkil, the Autostrada team completed the construction of a complex section in 9 months. In particular, the following work was performed:

• A 90-meter tunnel under the railway was built, which was built in two stages for uninterrupted rail traffic.

• The railway track was restored using modern technologies.

• An elevated railway platform and stairs for passengers were built.

• A new 9-meter road with a cycle path was created under the turning circle of the high-speed tram.

• Sidewalks, lighting, noise barriers, a storm sewer system, and retaining walls were installed.

• Water pipes passing in the road zone were reinforced.

• The space between the tracks on the tram tracks was laid with reinforced concrete slabs.

Maksym Shkil noted that work on the site was carried out 24/7 simultaneously by four Autostrada sections: bridge construction, road construction, drilling and crane construction, and facing. In total, more than 800 specialists were involved in the process. Also important is the further plan for decorating the tunnel walls, installing ramps for the comfort of passengers at the "Raiduzhnyi" station, and completing the work by the end of December.

The launch of the exit to Troyeshchyna is only part of the large Podilsko-Voskresensky bridge crossing project, which aims to significantly improve road traffic in Kyiv. Maksym Shkil emphasized the importance of the comprehensive completion of this large-scale facility, which will become one of the key elements of the capital's infrastructure.
