New sewer ducker through the Volga in Kostroma is built ahead of schedule

The construction of a new sewer duker across the Volga in Kostroma is ahead of schedule. The large-scale infrastructure project is designed to improve the drainage system for 72.5 thousand residents, including Davydovsky microdistricts, Yubileynaya Street and part of the Karavaevo village.

After the work is completed, the drains from the left bank of the Volga are planned to be sent to modern Korkin wastewater treatment plants on the right bank. This will make it possible to decommission the outdated Vasilievsky treatment facilities.

At the moment, more than 1.2 kilometers of pipes have already been laid in the trench on the left bank. Another 800 meters of pipes for the pressure part and 450 meters for the gravity system were delivered to the facility. On the right bank, a site was prepared and the necessary geological studies were carried out.

Initially, the completion of the project is scheduled for the end of 2028, but the work is faster than planned. Regional authorities expect to speed up funding to complete construction in 2027. On behalf of the governor, the issue of transferring part of the funds from 2028 to 2027 is being worked out with the Ministry of Construction of Russia.
