Sergey Karpov: the Tavrida highway will bypass all cities in Crimea. Tavrida Crimea route description, download and see the diagram on the map, detailed how and where it will go Who is building the Tavrida route

In Crimea, work continues on the construction of the main highway of the peninsula. The first stage of the first stage of the Tavrida highway in a two-lane version, it is almost ready to start traffic. Currently, work is underway on a 65-kilometer section to install a barrier fence, develop a road, and install road signs.

The project provides that at the first launch complex of the Tavrida highway, which is launched in December of this year, 46 public transport stops will be located. There will also be 23 above-ground pedestrian crossings. In addition, the route will be equipped with the necessary number of mobile cameras to record violations of traffic rules. These will be mobile means of control. Stationary cameras will be installed after the facility is commissioned in 2020.

As the representative of the general contractor clarified, at the first stage it remains to pave small areas adjacent to artificial structures and a section of about 800 meters in length bypassing the village of Gornostaevka. This is due to the power line terminals. Planned shutdowns are currently underway. The laying of asphalt concrete at the first stage is planned to be completed on the 20th of December.

In the section from the zero picket of the first stage to the transport interchange in the village of Bagerovo, the second stage of the route is being reconstructed: the old asphalt concrete pavement is being dismantled, the roadbed is being developed, and new asphalt is being laid. According to a representative of the general contractor, The main work on the construction of the Bagerovskaya interchange has been completed in full: on a total area of ​​16,000 m², asphalt concrete pavement was installed, with the exception of the top layer. The overpass has been completed and lighting masts have been installed. Work remains on landscaping the slopes, installing barrier fencing and markings. Traffic movement along the interchange is currently already carried out from Bagerovo in the direction of the village of Ivanovka.

Builders of the Tavrida highway are working on laying asphalt concrete at all seven stages of the road. As the press service of the general contractor JSC VAD reported, as part of the second stage of construction of Tavrida, about 70 km of two-lane construction were laid.

The overall readiness of the route today is 41%. The readiness of the first stage is 82%. At stages 1-4 from Kerch to Simferopol, more than 160 km of asphalt concrete in a two-lane design were laid. As part of the first phase of construction, barrier fencing and lighting poles are being installed at stages 1, 2 and 3 of the route.

"To carry out work as part of the second stage in sections of stages 1, 3 and 4, a working diversion of traffic from the old Kerch - Simferopol road to two-lane sections of Tavrida was carried out. The total length of the sections of the route on which temporary traffic switching was carried out is about 40 km", noted JSC VAD.

Recently, the Governor of Sevastopol Dmitry Ovsyannikov, during a working trip, inspected the progress of JSC “VAD” construction and reconstruction work highway Kerch – Feodosia – Belogorsk – Simferopol – Bakhchisarai – Sevastopol, km 253+500 – km269+300, Sevastopol (Tavrida highway, stage 7).

Construction of the Sevastopol section of the Tavrida highway began on December 14, 2017. In accordance with the project, a 13.25 km section of the road will include one interchange at different levels, two overpasses and a bridge crossing.

Currently, work on surveying and clearing the area of ​​explosive objects has been completed at the site, and archaeological research has been carried out. The reconstruction of communication networks has been completed in full, work is underway on the construction of the roadbed and strengthening of slopes, the installation of spillways and layers of road pavement, and the reconstruction of the main high-pressure gas pipeline. The overall readiness of the facility is 27%. In accordance with the contract, work on the construction and reconstruction of the Sevastopol section of the road will be completed simultaneously with work on other sections of the Tavrida highway - in 2020.

Let us remind you that the Tavrida highway, 250.75 km long from Kerch to Sevastopol, will include 18 transport interchanges and 123 artificial structures. Work on the construction of the route is carried out at a high pace around the clock. More than 1,000 pieces of equipment and more than 3,000 people are involved in construction.

Sergei Karpov headed the Ministry of Transport of Crimea at the end of October, becoming the sixth head of the department in the last four years. Before him, only one of the five ministers served in this position for more than a year. The head of Crimea, Sergei Aksenov, noted in the fall a number of unresolved transport problems on the peninsula, including the unoptimized traffic pattern of route buses and traffic jams. In his first interview after his appointment, Karpov told his own RIA Novosti correspondent Maxim Groznov about how he intends to solve these problems, as well as the progress of construction and the timing of the launch of traffic on the Tavrida highway.

Sergey Vasilievich, how is the construction of one of the most important highways in Crimea going? At what stage of implementation is the project today?

The Tavrida road is of the first category (1B), the total length of the route is 250 kilometers, of which 237.5 kilometers are in the Republic of Crimea. In accordance with contractual obligations, the general contractor VAD JSC completed the construction of the first stage of the route. The first four stages - from the transport approach to the Crimean Bridge in Kerch to the interchange of the fourth and fifth stages of "Tavrida" in the area of ​​​​the village of Trudovoye (Simferopol) - this is 190 kilometers in a 1+1 scheme (one lane in each direction) are ready, traffic is in working order mode starts from December 30 to 31.

I note that this will greatly relieve traffic during the holiday season in the Feodosia area along the existing road, since the second and third stages of the route bypass all settlements from the village of Batalnoe to Belogorsk - this is a new road built from scratch. The new route will also bypass all major settlements on the Crimean Peninsula.

- What is the degree of readiness of the Tavrida highway as a whole - from Kerch to Sevastopol in a four-lane design?

The construction of the Tavrida highway is being carried out in two stages. The first stage is a two-lane section of the highway from Kerch to Simferopol - one lane in each direction. Like I said, she's ready. The overall readiness of the entire route (all seven stages from Kerch to Sevastopol) is currently 50%.

More than 11 billion rubles have been allocated to extend the Tavrida highway in SevastopolMore than 11 billion rubles have been allocated by decree of the Russian government for the construction of the eighth section of the Tavrida highway in Sevastopol, according to the text of the document.

Let's return to the finished first stage of the route. What types of transport will be allowed to travel through it and what will the speed limit be?

Taking into account the fact that after the opening of work traffic from Kerch to Simferopol, construction work will continue, the maximum permitted speed along the entire length of the road will be 60 kilometers per hour, and in areas where construction work is ongoing, 40 kilometers per hour. The speed limit will be maintained until the construction of the entire route is completed, then the permitted speed on Tavrida will be 90 kilometers per hour. The estimated load on Tavrida is up to 40 thousand cars per day, similar to the Crimean Bridge.

Any vehicle (buses, passenger vehicles, trucks up to 40 tons) that is permitted to travel on first category roads will be able to travel along Tavrida.

Work on the creation of the first stage was completed in less than two years. Is the new road equipped with technical means of control, fencing, lighting?

Now work will begin on installing cameras for photo and video recording of traffic violations. By the beginning of the holiday season, this work will be completed; violations will be recorded by both stationary and mobile cameras. This is being done to prevent accidents; the road will be included in the road safety scheme, taking into account the use of automatic systems. At least eight locations for their installation have been identified, and their number will increase further. These will mostly be straight sections of the route.

Along the entire length of the Tavrida there will be an interaxial barrier fence separating the flows. The total length of the barrier fence before the entire route is put into operation (from the first to the seventh stage) will exceed 700 kilometers. Now the first stage already has a barrier fence, markings, lighting at interchanges and bridge crossings. The barrier fences have reflective elements.

- Are there any rest areas for car owners or gas stations along Tavrida?

After the start of the work movement on the first stage of Tavrida, there will be no new gas stations and multifunctional zones. This is due to ongoing construction work. Drivers should take into account that on a section of about 70 kilometers from the village of Batalnoe to Belogorsk (this is a completely new section, built literally in a field), there will be no gas stations until construction is completed. All gas stations will remain on the old, existing road; if necessary, it will be possible to get to them from Tavrida.

At the moment, the investment project defines the creation of six multifunctional zones (three in each direction) along the entire length of Tavrida. Competitions have already been held through the Ministry of Economic Development of Crimea, applications have been submitted, and winners have been determined. The construction period for such zones is about two years. Commissioning is also scheduled for the end of 2020. In these zones, drivers will have the opportunity to refuel, relax, have a snack, and carry out vehicle repairs or maintenance at service facilities. There will be cafes, shops, hotels, bus stops, sports grounds and places for selling locally produced products - this was the requirement of the republic.

New gas stations will most likely be built a year earlier, by the end of 2019. This is also beneficial for the winners of investment competitions for their construction. Requirements for the location of gas stations are a distance of 60 to 90 kilometers, but here they will be located more often, taking into account the intensity of traffic, after about 50 kilometers. At the moment, it is planned to build 12 new gas stations in both directions. They will be built on existing recreation areas that already exist in the first stage of Tavrida.

- How will pedestrian safety be ensured? Will there be crossings with traffic lights at Tavrida?

There will be no traffic lights on the Tavrida highway. All intersections will be either through overpasses or through traffic intersections. In total, 30 elevated pedestrian crossings will be created on the route from Kerch to Sevastopol (in sections one through six, they are not provided for in section seven), equipped with elevators for people with limited mobility. They will be put into operation with the completion of the entire road by the end of 2020. Already now, by the way, three overground pedestrian crossings are being built on the road with high traffic intensity Simferopol-Alushta-Yalta, on the southern coast of Crimea. They will be located in areas where the road passes through populated areas (the villages of Lozovoye, Zarechnoye, Perevalnoye). All of them will be equipped with elevators; their commissioning will eliminate traffic lights and create congestion, and will also improve road safety.

The development of the route from Krasnodar to the Crimean Bridge will reduce travel time by 25%The development of the federal highway A-289 from Krasnodar in the direction of the Taman Peninsula will make it the most comfortable and fastest route to Crimea from central Russia, and reduce the travel time from Krasnodar to the Crimean Bridge by a quarter, reports FKU Uprdor "Taman", which is the state customer of the design .

Are advanced technologies used in construction? What warranty period does the general contractor provide for the coating?

Now two layers of asphalt will be laid at Tavrida. The finishing layer, as on the road approaches to the Crimean Bridge, will be laid immediately along the entire length of the road by the time it is completely ready. Then the existing markings on the road will be replaced with durable markings made of thermoplastic. The third layer is crushed stone-mastic asphalt concrete, it is more plastic and good for the climate of the republic. This type of coating has never been used in Crimea before. The warranty on the top layer of asphalt concrete is four years, on the constructive layer – up to eight years. The contractor produces asphalt concrete mixtures at five plants specially installed in Crimea.

- How many workers and equipment are involved in construction? Where do the materials come from?

Local materials are used for filling road bases, and imported ones for asphalt concrete, since they meet the required quality. Three thousand employees of the general contractor JSC VAD are involved in the construction, and up to five thousand including subcontractors. More than a thousand pieces of equipment are working at all seven stages. Up to half of the employees hired for both blue-collar and engineering specialties are residents of the peninsula.

What difficulties did you encounter during the implementation of the project? The media wrote that the main reason for the delays in work was the seizure of land plots necessary for the construction of the road.

We are faced with unsynchronized conclusion of contracts for construction and for the preparation of territories for its implementation. The construction of the route began in February 2017, and the land cadastral and appraisal work of the areas that are subject to seizure began at the end of 2017. For this reason, there were several difficulties that have now been resolved. However, due to the delay in the seizure of land in the area of ​​the village of Privetnoye in the Kirovsky district (700 meters long) and in the area of ​​the villages of Donskoye and Mazanka (three kilometers), a detour will be organized around the areas where construction work is currently underway. In these places, according to the project, there are engineering structures, the creation of which takes time. All detours have been repaired and driving along them will not cause any difficulties. The general contractor plans to complete construction in these areas by the beginning of the holiday season.

In total, as of December 21, compensation for 83 seized real estate assets amounts to more than 700 million rubles. This is along the entire length of the route. The main part of such objects concerns areas from Kerch to Simferopol. Payment will begin on January 15th.

Another unforeseen moment was the discovery of a cave during construction work in the Belogorsk region of Crimea. What decision was made on this object?

The work to study the cave has been completed, and it has been decided to build a road above it. The cave crosses the new direction of "Tavrida" and the existing road. By the holiday season, a bypass to this place will be created, and the contractor will begin work in the cave area, which is about one kilometer long. Technically, this will be a structure in the form of a balcony over the cave so that the road will pass over it. This will ensure both the safety of the cave and the safety of the first category road.

Let me also remind you that along the entire length of the construction of the route, sections were inspected by archaeologists and excavations were carried out, the results of which are of great importance for science.

As part of the implementation of the Federal Target Program for the development of Crimea, several more roads are being built on the peninsula, for example the road from Simferopol to Yevpatoria, which provides for a southern bypass of Simferopol airport. What is the time frame for the project? Are you behind schedule?

Another FTP object is the reconstruction of the Simferopol-Evpatoria-Mirny road to connect Simferopol with Evpatoria, bypassing the city of Saki (the existing road passes through the city, causing large traffic jams in the summer). The reconstruction is divided into two stages. The first is from the capital of Crimea to the village of Skvortsovo, construction is already underway. The second is from Skvortsovo to Yevpatoria, bypassing Saki. Now the passport for the second stage has been prepared, the project has been approved by the Ministry of Economic Development of the Russian Federation, the design of this section is planned for 2019, and construction until 2022. This is an important road for the republic, as there are serious plans for the development of Evpatoria.

The first section of this route is 24.7 kilometers long, according to the contract, the completion date is September 2020, the cost is 8 billion rubles. This is a four-lane highway with a section that bypasses the airport to eliminate travel in the tunnel under the airport runway. The road will intersect with the Tavrida highway near the airport.

In the past year, Crimeans and guests of the peninsula complained about the poor accessibility of the new airport due to the narrowing of the route from six lanes to two. People got stuck in traffic jams and were late for flights. Will this issue be resolved by the start of the 2019 holiday season?

Work traffic on the section from the old to the new airport on the new section of the road with six lanes should be open before the start of the holiday season, this is the task set. Perhaps by the season this section will have a separate lane for public transport.

The contractor (OJSC Tsentrodorstroy) delayed the start of work by four months; 800 million rubles will already be transferred to next year. The backlog is due, among other things, to poor-quality design documentation completed by the contractor, which has been developing a number of road projects in the republic since 2015. The result is a pile of interchanges near the airport, which, as it turned out, were not coordinated with each other. As a result, everything had to be linked to the already built entrance to the new terminal.

Now the contracting company has increased its pace. I hope that the terms of the contract will be fulfilled; there is still enough time. The strategic design of a transport hub near the airport raises certain questions, but we proceed from the reality that exists.

Residents of Crimea and tourists often complain about the organization of public transport, including intercity transport. The most difficult situation is in Simferopol. When will buses start running on schedule, and will it be possible to pay for their fare not only in cash?

All this will be done in 2019. This year the Simferopol agglomeration was created, it included Simferopol and the Simferopol region. Starting next year, funding will be allocated to repair the road network. But in general, this concerns not only road repairs, but also a revision of the public transport traffic pattern. The problem is that the main part of the routes still passes through the center of Simferopol. A transitional scheme, including landing and transfer hubs at the entrances to the city, has already been developed. It will reduce the number of routes going through the center of the capital of Crimea.

We are amending the law on transportation and creating a single operator. This will make it possible to synchronize routes; today they are not connected with each other in any way. The Ministry of Transport of the Republic is the coordinator of the development of a new public transport scheme for the entire agglomeration. An important point: a passenger traveling from the suburbs to Simferopol will not pay twice when transferring to a city route.

The second important point of this program is the introduction of non-cash payment for travel. Validators will be installed, and cards will be issued for preferential categories of citizens. The Republic Law will be amended accordingly so that fares can be paid using a card. It will be necessary to obtain a benefit certificate, but the process of paying for travel will become much more convenient and transparent for all participants in the process. There are two ways to resolve this issue - through an investment agreement or through the issuance of a preferential passenger card.

What are the prospects for updating rolling stock? The condition of many buses in cities and intercity transport does not stand up to criticism.

The head of the republic, Sergei Aksenov, approved a system of incentives for carriers to purchase new rolling stock. The leasing company at RNKB Bank gave proposals to carriers. We are currently negotiating. When concluding a contract for the purchase of buses, the republic will compensate the carrier for the first installment of leasing payments, this can amount to about 20% of the cost. Another 93 buses will be purchased for the state enterprises Krymtrolleybus and Goravtotrans. In total, the city, according to our estimates, lacks 230 buses.

New “smart stops” will be installed in cities. In the suburbs and villages there will be stands with timetables. It is with a schedule, and not an interval - so that people accurately understand the time of arrival of the bus. A single structure under the ministry will also monitor compliance with the bus schedule. This is part of the intercity routes.

In Crimea, on June 27, traffic opened on the second section of the Tavrida federal highway, which will connect the Kerch Bridge, Simferopol and Sevastopol.

On Wednesday, in the Belogorsk area, traffic will be diverted from a section of the old Kerch-Feodosia-Simferopol highway to a six-kilometer section of the new Tavrida highway, he said. Chairman of the State Road Committee of the Republic of Kazakhstan Sergey Karpov.

He clarified that the technical diversion of traffic is carried out by the general contractor as part of the contract. This is being done so that road workers have the opportunity to begin the second stage of construction of the route.

The first 6.5-kilometer section of the route was opened for travel in May 2018, simultaneously with the launch of traffic on the Crimean Bridge.

It is planned that traffic on two lanes of the Tavrida from Kerch to Simferopol will open in December 2018. Commissioning of all four lanes of the road to Sevastopol is scheduled for December 2020.

On the Tavrida it will be possible to accelerate to 120 kilometers per hour.

Let us remind you that the road is being built around the clock. More than 1 thousand units of special equipment and more than 3 thousand people work. About 50% of employees are Crimeans, the rest are residents of other regions of the Russian Federation.

Asphalt concrete is produced for the construction of the highway in Crimea. Asphalt concrete plants were opened in different areas of the peninsula next to the construction site. Asphalt plant "Kerch" was put into operation in June 2017. The Batalnoe asphalt plant was launched next - it began operating in September, the Tsvetochnoe asphalt plant began operating in October, followed by the Stary Krym asphalt plant in November. Another plant was put into operation in May 2018.

Length of the route – 237.5 kilometers

Travel speed – 120 kilometers per hour

Number of lanes – 4

Lane width – 3.5 meters

The smallest width of the dividing lane is 2.75 meters

Curb width – 3.5 meters

Official information from the Ministry of Transport of the Russian Federation. In connection with the plans of the builders of the Crimean Bridge to put the road part of the Crimean Bridge into operation significantly ahead of schedule, in May 2018, the Ministry of Transport of the Russian Federation is considering a phased scheme for organizing traffic along the new route across the Kerch Strait.

Joint Stock Company "VAD" began construction of a highway and road access in Kerch to the transport crossing across the Kerch Strait on February 22, 2017. A year later, the overall readiness of the automated approach is 77%.

Last year, Sergei Valerievich Aksenov, the head of the Republic of Crimea, and Roman Vladimirovich Starovoyt, the head of Rosavtodor, laid a stone that marked the start of construction work on the Crimean part of the road approaches to the bridge across the Kerch Strait.

Kerchan resident Konstantin Khodakovsky continues to film the grandiose construction taking place in the city using a controlled drone.

Russian Transport Minister Maxim Sokolov inspected the progress of projects connecting Kuban and Crimea into a single road network via the Crimean Bridge. The route of the head of the Ministry of Transport practically corresponded to the one by which in 2018 it will be possible to travel by car from Anapa to Simferopol.

Employees of the VAD company, which is building the Tavrida highway, presented at the multimedia exhibition “Russia, looking to the future” the advanced technologies used to build the Crimean road. According to experts, the most modern technologies are used both for the manufacture of the highway surface itself and for equipping road equipment. Kryminform correspondents visited one of the Tavrida sections to see how the new highway is actually being built in Crimea.

Simferopol, November 16. Kryminform. Builders laid the top layers of asphalt on 18 km of the Tavrida highway in the section from Kerch to Belogorsk. Kryminform was informed about this today by the VAD company, which is the contractor for the construction of the route.

The opening of road traffic in working mode and the start of temporary operation of auto approaches to the Crimean Bridge from Kerch should occur before May 30, 2018. This is stated in the addition to the order of the Government of the Russian Federation dated October 5, 2017 No. 2164-r, Kryminform reports.

The Tavrida builders erected two lanes of the road and marked them. The strip of the future highway beyond the Solnechny microdistrict is expanding. One after another, the supports of the overpass are growing. The construction site is monitored by solar-powered cameras. Kerch men went to work for VAD and in the family circle proudly announce the size of their salaries. Every day brings the moment of commissioning of the bridge across the Kerch Strait closer. Life is in full swing. Not far from the territory where a highway interchange is being built, along which tourists will

Route "Tavrida". Kerch interchange 9 kilometer from a quadcopter

The quiet and measured life of a semi-resort town in the very east of the Crimean peninsula has changed a lot after the start of a grandiose construction project. The Kerch Bridge, even at the development stage, became a legendary project. Kerchan residents watch this construction project from different points of the city with surprise and pleasure, listening at night to the booming sounds of pile driving and the rhythmic squeak of construction equipment.

As part of the creation of green zones along the Tavrida federal highway under construction in Crimea, it is planned to plant more than 322 thousand trees. This was stated by First Deputy Minister of Transport of the Republic of Kazakhstan Sergei Semenov during the IV Crimean Transport Forum, which opened in Alushta.

The Novosibirsk construction company Sibavtoban laid two lower layers of asphalt on a kilometer-long section of the Dubki-Levadki highway under construction, which will become part of the Simferopol bypass. The general director of Sibavtoban, Andrei Morotsky, told reporters about this today.

Dump trucks, excavators and other heavy equipment are working non-stop at Verkhny Solnechny. The workers clearly demarcated the territory where the main stage of construction will take place. There is also a machine for driving piles on site, which will soon be used for its intended purpose.

Editorial Board of the Russian Road Portal

The existing route “Kerch - Feodosia - Simferopol - Bakhchisarai - Sevastopol” in the Republic of Crimea is a two-lane road with a worn-out surface. It is unlikely to be able to accommodate the large flow of traffic that will travel to the peninsula via the Kerch Bridge in December 2018. Therefore, the Tavrida highway project appeared, which includes both the reconstruction of the existing road and the construction of new sections on the route from Kerch to Sevastopol.

Project history

Prepare a project for the “Tavrida” route from Kerch through Feodosia, Belogorsk, Simferopol, Bakhchisarai to Sevastopol and begin construction work in 2015. At the same time, it was known that some of the plots would be reconstructed, and some would be built anew. Initially, the road was estimated at 45 billion rubles; in 2016, this figure increased to 85 billion rubles, and then to 118 billion and 128 billion rubles. The cost did not stop at this level, and construction of the route began a couple of years later.

The approved design solutions for Tavrida were published by the Ministry of Transport of Crimea at the end of 2016. Then it became known that the route would pass through the territory of Leninsky, Feodosia, Kirov, Belogorsk, Simferopol, Bakhchisaray districts, as well as through the territory of the cities of Sudak, Simferopol, Bakhchisaray. About 23 more kilometers will be built on the territory of Sevastopol (7th stage). Reconstruction of 124.8 km and new construction of 123.3 km are envisaged. Along its entire length, the highway will have 4 lanes, a dividing strip, and the estimated speed will be 120 km/h. Technical category - 1B.

The route, with a total length of about 250 km, will include 20 transport interchanges, 123 overpasses, 15 bridges, 31 overpasses for the passage of agricultural machinery, 17 overpasses from transport interchanges.

At the end of 2016, the State Council of Crimea adopted a bill according to which it was allowed to begin construction of the Tavrida highway before the project passed the inspection of Glavgosexpertiza. This decision was made to optimize the timing of the project and its commissioning, as well as to carry out construction work as efficiently as possible. As a result, construction of the road was given on May 12, 2017. The only contractor for the construction of the Tavrida highway was determined by the Government of the Russian Federation to be the company JSC VAD.

“The timing of the construction of the route will be associated with the pace of construction of the transport crossing across the Kerch Strait, and next year the first stage of construction of this road to Simferopol will be put into operation. Two new lanes will ensure all traffic flows,” Russian Transport Minister Maxim Sokolov said then.

The Tavrida highway project passed the Glavgosexpertiza on October 3, 2017, but it was initially planned that the experts would make their decision by the end of August, after which the deadline would be repeated several times. According to the Ministry of Economic Development of the Russian Federation, the cost of the route during the examination decreased by 2 billion rubles and amounted to 166 billion rubles, but the amount for purchases is less.

Construction stages

Even before the Tavrida highway project was ready, it was decided to divide the construction into several stages in order to speed up the pace of work. As a result, the road was divided into 7 stages, while the final stage, Sevastopol, became a little separate, even the contract for it will be concluded separately.

The first 6 stages look like this:

Stage 1 - 70.8 km (the beginning of the section in the area of ​​​​the transport interchange of approaches to the Kerch Bridge, the end - in the area of ​​​​the village of Primorsky);

Stage 2 - 50 km (the beginning of the section along a new direction in the area of ​​the village of Primorsky, the end - exit to the Belogorsk - Lgovskoye road in the area of ​​the village of Lgovskoye);

Stage 3 - 35.6 km (from the exit to the Belogorsk - Lgovskoye road to the exit to the Simferopol - Feodosiya road in the Belogorsk area);

Stage 4 - 27.5 km (from the exit to the Simferopol - Feodosia road to the bypass of Simferopol);

Stage 5 - 24.7 km (from the bypass of Simferopol to the exit to the Simferopol - Bakhchisaray - Sevastopol road in the Levadka area);

Stage 6 - 28.9 km (from the exit to the Simferopol - Bakhchisaray - Sevastopol highway in the area of ​​​​the village of Levadki to the border of the Bakhchisaray district).

Sections of the 1st, 4th and 6th stages are reconstruction of the existing route. Two new lanes will be built parallel to the existing road. Then the transport will be transferred to the new half of the road, and the old half will be renovated.

Stages No. 2 and No. 3 are a bypass of the cities of Feodosia, Stary Krym and Belogorsk, new construction is provided here. Stage No. 5 - bypassing Simferopol, here the road will also be rebuilt.

Of the large artificial structures on the route, an example is the bridge over the Alma River at stage 6. Its length will be 198.4 m, the spans will be steel-reinforced concrete. At the border of the 4th and 5th stages (189th km), a large transport interchange with 11 exits will be built, the total length of which is 5.5 km. In total, within the framework of the 1st stage of “Tavrida” there are 3 interchanges: at the 13th, 52nd and 76th km. At the 2nd stage, 2 interchanges will be built: at the 89th km (intersection with the Feodosiya - Dzhankoy highway) and at the 125th km, at the 3rd stage - at the 154th km (intersection with the Belogorsk - Nizhnegorsky highway), as well as at border with the 4th stage (161st km). At the fourth stage, two interchanges will appear: at km 176 and km 180. The largest number of interchanges is concentrated on the 5th and 6th stages: at the 189th km, 201st km, 216th km, 219th km, 229th km, 233rd km, 242nd km and at the 251st km.

"Sevastopol" stage of the "Tavrida" track

The city government is responsible for the 7th stage of the Tavrida highway, which will pass through the territory of Sevastopol. Its length changed several times: sometimes it was 23 km, sometimes 16 km (from the 253rd km to the 269th km). According to the Department of Transport and Development of Road Transport Infrastructure of Sevastopol, the actual length of the section will be 13.25 km.

It will run from the border with the Bakhchisaray district along the Simferopol - Bakhchisaray - Sevastopol highway to the 17th km of the Sevastopol - Inkerman highway (Presidential Road). The section of the route will pass in a new direction, without affecting residential and outbuildings, partly along agricultural lands (vineyards) in the area of ​​the village. Verkhnesadovy.

The Sevastopol section of the Tavrida, like the entire route, will have technical category 1B. There will be four lanes of traffic with a dividing strip 2.75 m wide. The project provides for the construction of two overpasses and one bridge: an overpass over the existing road Verkhnesadovoye - Frontovoye - Krasny Mak, an overpass at exit No. 2 of the transport interchange at PK 6+31 and a bridge over the river Belbek and railway tracks. In the place where the project route leaves the existing Simferopol - Bakhchisarai - Sevastopol road to a new direction, it is planned to construct a transport interchange on two levels. The traffic interchange is classified as a “Pipe” type junction.

“On sections of the road where excavation of more than 16 m is planned, engineering protection is carried out against dangerous geological processes, which is represented by retaining walls on a pile foundation, reinforced with anchor piles. Slab-anchoring and soil erosion protection are provided on the slopes. Surface water is diverted outside the structures through trays and upland ditches,” the Department of Transport and Road Infrastructure Development of Sevastopol told the DorInfo portal.

Currently, preparatory work is underway on the Sevastopol section of the route. Work is planned on the installation of small artificial structures - culverts of metal corrugated pipes under the embankment of the designed transport interchange.

In general, construction work is being carried out along the entire length of the Tavrida highway. According to the head of the construction department of JSC VAD in Crimea, Andrey Lazorsky, most of the work has now been completed at the 1st stage of construction of the route. Here, asphalt concrete pavement is laid for 8 kilometers. In total, there are 18 km of asphalt concrete on the section from Kerch to Belogorsk. By the end of 2017, the area of ​​paved pavement should be about 700 thousand square meters. meters.

The contract for the construction of six stages of the route was concluded with the VAD company on November 21, 2017. The contract value is 137.3 billion rubles. The contract for the construction of the seventh stage is still at the signing stage. The cost of the section will be 12.8 billion rubles, and the total price of the road will be about 150 billion rubles. The two-lane version of Tavrida should open at the end of 2018, and the 4-lane version in 2020. Full commissioning of the facility is scheduled for December 30, 2020.
