On the highway “Sura” began to clear the strip by mulching

On the regional highway "Sura" in the Krasnochetaisky district, specialists began to mechanically clear the strip of withdrawal from unwanted wood and shrub vegetation.

The work is carried out by the mulching method. This was preceded by chemical treatment: during 2026, about 300 km of republican roads were treated with herbicides.

First, experts weakened the root system of weeds, and then proceeded to their mechanical removal. The resulting chips remain in place and are used as a natural coating that protects the soil from erosion.

“Our main task is to make the roads of Chuvashia not only high-quality, but also as safe as possible for all traffic participants,” said Maxim Petrov, Minister of Transport and Road Management of Chuvashia.

The Ministry of Transport of Chuvashia reports that the quality of work is under the control of the department.
