Russia: Vyazemskiy Bridge enters construction phase

The Vyazemskiy Bridge has entered the construction phase

The construction of the first bridge span of the future bridge over the Vologda River has begun in the Vyazemsky district.

The structure will be 250 meters long and will connect the villages of Laptevo and Filippovo.

The bridge is being built as part of the Northern Bypass of Vologda. The new road will connect the federal highways of Vologda-Medvezhyegorsk and Vologda-Kichmengsky Gorodok-Kotlas.

The length of the bypass will be 13.2 kilometers, and its construction will cost more than 8 billion rubles.

The project involves the construction of two bridges

The first bridge will be located across the Vologda River and will have a length of 250 meters. The second bridge will be located across the Kubena River and will be 170 meters long.

The construction of the bypass is scheduled to be completed in 2024.

The Northern Bypass of Vologda is a major infrastructure project

The bypass will help to improve the transport accessibility of Vologda and reduce traffic congestion in the city.

The bypass will also provide a new route for transit traffic, which will help to reduce the environmental impact on the city.
