centers, the road, and this is more than 800... kilometers will take about 6.5 hours, which is almost twice as fast as before. in general, car travel in this direction will become more convenient and, importantly, safer. the volume and efficiency of cargo transportation will increase, and the development of domestic tourism will receive a good incentive. the route passes through the moscow, nizhny novgorod, vladimir regions and the republic. chuvashia, and of course, through tatarstan, will certainly increase their investment attractiveness, will contribute to the creation of jobs, to housing construction, opening and growth of companies in industry, agriculture, logistics, and services. well, it always happens, the road appears. i thank all the specialists, workers, engineers, designers who participated in the construction of this important transport route. thank you for your enormous work

. high pace of work, i’ll say more about this now, and of course, for completing construction seriously ahead of schedule, that’s what we’re talking about, this is also very important, for such a period, and these are only 3 years infrastructure projects of such scale and complexity , an excellent example, a good guideline for the future, another proof that we can and are ready to build with high quality, faster and more, this applies to social and industrial... housing facilities, railways, other infrastructure, it is necessary to increase the pace of the construction complex, our related industries are ready for this, i note that during construction, like a bridge across the volga near kazan, more than 3 km long, and my colleagues and i paid special attention to this, local residents will be able to drive across this bridge faster and even a little cheaper than the current

one... and local roads, in regions including donbass and novorossiya, more than 188 million square meters of asphalt concrete were laid. these are record volumes and a significant contribution to the development of our country’s road network and to improving the quality of people’s lives. i would like to emphasize once again that reliable transport arteries are of fundamental importance for russia and that our plans in the field of road construction must be in place. implemented in full, further development of the route is among the priorities east, it will have to be extended to yekaterinburg and tyumen, and bypasses will be built for tyumen, omsk, novorossiysk, kemerovo,

kansk. special attention should be paid to clearing out bottlenecks on the russia route in the far east, including access points for the comfortable travel of our citizens. the opening areas must be landscaped and provided with modern road service facilities for stable communications. there is a lot of work ahead, but i have no doubt that all tasks will definitely be completed, and, as always, in the most worthy manner, professional level. and in conclusion, i want to say once again, the good of russia and our citizens. you set the task for the construction complexes and the transport complex of the country to build transport infrastructure at a faster pace, and

from the moment of your instruction i can say that we do not have a single one on time, there is not a single facility that was commissioned at the wrong time, we are building all the facilities either on time, or meeting deadlines, today we are introducing the most ambitious project. we built it in 3 years, something like this in the history of our country has never happened, even if we compare it with international experience, taking into account from the idea to registration, yesterday at 11 at night a document was received to register the object, we have never built such objects in 3 years, even in the world, few people build such objects in 3 years, today this work is construction of this route, it generally gave a powerful stimulus to the development of not only, not only housing, not only industry, not

only but also... mortality and injuries as a result of road accidents, will create 85 thousand new jobs, will have a powerful effect on tourist flows, we we can already see that the commissioning of the first sections gives up to 42 thousand, that together with the construction of the route we synchronized a number of road facilities, moscow has built its own high-speed diameter, for which i want to thank sergei semyonovich, because today a passenger or car from st. petersburg can . get to moscow, drive through the high-speed diameter or promptly go further to kazan and subsequently to tyumeniy, which means further to vladivostok, thanks to this road we are additionally

building and reconstructing sections of the gold mine rings to vladimir, the road from arzamas to nizhny novgorod, we have a good example that when we started building the road, tatarstan took the initiative to connect the m5 and m7 highways. we have m5 today, one of the busiest highways. next year, in the middle of the year, a section of 150 km will be launched, which will make it possible to move from the m5 highway to 30 investment and 30% federal, that is, this is a good example of a ppp, we are actively pursuing work on bypassing talyati, bypassing talyati and this section, which will allow us to go from the m12 highway to the border with kazakhstan next moving to china, colleagues from the kazakh side are also working to expand their part of the roads, we agreed that as soon as we fully expand this road, in the twenty-fourth year the crossing will be ready, the border crossing

will also be reconstructed, today the road construction has been completed all the plans, and i can say that according to the national project we had tasks for 52% of regional roads. 50% to bring roads in regional areas to standard condition, we already have a figure of 52%, 81% in urban agglomerations and 70% of support roads networks are in a standard state already as of... today's date has been completed, i think that we would, of course, pay great attention to tell you that we will be able to carry out all your assigned tasks, taking this opportunity, vladivich, i wanted to personally, without your support, without your constant attention and all the decisions made, we would never have achieved such results in road construction, in general in the development of investments in the entire development of the entire infrastructure, we managed to implement this because we worked in headquarters mode, that’s all government. 3 years ago i held a meeting

, which means that we also determined the routing, set the task, and we, with the entire government at headquarters, were engaged in the implementation of this project, and we closely promoted cooperation with the presidential administration, with all colleagues, which means that we worked on regional policy, the ministry of construction, regional headquarters policy with all the governors, all the governors with their teams worked on... under this task simply in headquarters mode, i would like to separately note the work of the federal assembly without changes legislation, we definitely would not have been able to build so quickly, huge changes have been made in the regulatory framework, we constantly report to you about this about the reduction in the investment and construction cycle, this allowed us to build this route on time, a huge amount of work was done by the ministry of finance to advance the construction of the heads of state expertise, colleagues from rosavtodor, rosreestr, ministry of transport, rostekhno. ministry of natural resources, i would like to say separately that we

worked closely with the entire security bloc, all structures of the ministry of internal affairs, the fsb, the prosecutor's office, the courts promptly considered all emerging issues simply in manual mode. gazprom, transneft, rosseti, which means that the leaders personally controlled the relocation of all utility networks, we have never rebuilt giant oil and gas pipelines in such a time frame, and we have rebuilt dozens of them, we have never done this, that’s personal. mars malanorich, some of them brought together the seven largest

contractors in our country, plus, that means, they built part of the site themselves and today we have all the best companies on this project, these are dsk avtobahn, transtroymekhanizatsiya, which is included to the company roads and bridges to the group of companies, the regional construction company wat stroytransgaz, and even the chinese in a separate area, the world's largest company crcc also worked on this project, i want to say a special thank you, at our peak until... in the morning it started from the moscow kremlin

, which means the motor rally has started, all our domestic manufacturers, lada, uaz, gas, solers, kamaz, they have also already reached the middle of the route, i think that they will also tell their impressions of how they drove along this road in the morning i spent them today, i i think they will share their impressions, thank you very much vladimirovich, thank you rustam nurgalevich, please, tatarstan. dear, on the territory of the republic the seventh , eighth section, 142 km, 67 artificial devices, and a bridge at 3,362 m, this is a huge job, 500 people, 1,400 units of equipment, but most importantly, vladimirovich, yesterday i personally drove to moscow, words
