On the highway “Golden ring” in the Ivanovo region prepared 15 thousand tons of mixture

Road services have completed preparations for the winter season at the section of the federal highway R-132 "Golden Ring" in the Ivanovo region. More than 15 thousand tons of sand-salt mixture were prepared for processing the coating from ice.

In the winter months, specialised vehicles will operate on the track. They will clean snow from the roadway, roadsides, sidewalks and stops. The condition of the road surface is planned to be regularly checked, and if weather conditions change, promptly carry out the necessary work. The track will be monitored around the clock.

The site with a length of more than 100 kilometers is serviced by Gazpromneft – Road Construction. The road itself is managed by FKU Uprdor "Russia".

General Director of the company Mikhail Pozdnyakov noted that the Ivanovo region is characterized by frequent thaws, after which frosts come. Therefore, it is important for road workers to remove snow in a timely manner and prevent the formation of ice.

Earlier this year, the company repaired part of the R-132 highway, including the entrance to Ivanovo from Vladimir and Moscow. When laying asphalt, a polymer-bitumen binder was used, designed for intense loads and temperature changes.
