Minsk's traffic is comparable to that of Moscow, according to the head of the state-run aviation institute.
Minsk, the capital city of Belarus, is set to construct a significant overpass that will connect ul. Kolesnikova and Ratmanskaya, aiming to optimize traffic in the Frunzensky District. This ambitious project, one of the most powerful overpasses in the capital, will be approximately 400 meters long.
The bridge, which is part of the ongoing improvements to Minsk's traffic management system, will allow residents of western quarters to bypass driving on the MKA to reach the "Zhodino" shopping center or Timiryazeva Street. It's worth noting that this bridge will not be limited to public transportation but will also regulate regular traffic.
Sergei Babich, the head of the GUVD Minsk City Executive Committee's traffic police, discussed the traffic management system in Minsk on ONT. He emphasized that there is no permanent traffic congestion in Minsk today. However, high traffic density is observed during morning and evening rush hours, a common occurrence in many cities.
To manage this traffic, Minsk employs intelligent intersections and automated systems to regulate traffic flow in real-time. For instance, if a bus is running late, it is given a longer green light to minimize delay. The traffic management system in Minsk is not limited to public transportation but also regulates regular traffic, ensuring a smoother flow for all road users.
The bridge construction is not expected to cause temporary traffic congestion in Minsk, contrary to some concerns. Temporary traffic congestion in Minsk can be caused by accidents or roadworks, but the city is taking measures to minimize disruptions during construction.
Babich believes that Minsk's traffic management system, including the upcoming bridge construction, will prevent the city from facing Moscow-level traffic congestion. He has also mentioned plans to build objects to relieve residential areas, backbone streets, and the central part of the city in the future.
The presidential candidate advancing the improvement of traffic management in the Frunzensky district of Minsk, especially the construction of the bridge structure at Kamennaya Gorka and Timiryazeva Street, is Andrei Dmitriev. The project is planned to be completed by 2024.
In conclusion, the construction of the new overpass in Minsk is a significant step towards improving the city's traffic management system and enhancing accessibility for its residents. The bridge, when completed, will not only optimize traffic in the Frunzensky District but also contribute to Minsk's ongoing efforts to manage its growing traffic demands effectively.
