In Serpukhov, the bridge in Buturlino, opened five days ago, is again closed to traffic

The bridge over the river Rechma in the village of Buturlino in the city district of Serpukhov is again closed to traffic. The bridge was opened for passage on November 2 after the completion of major repairs, but on November 7 restrictions were reintroduced.

According to the information of the Ministry of Transport and Road Infrastructure of the Moscow region, when opening traffic on the bridge, the agency notified that some of the work has not yet been completed, so it is possible to introduce temporary traffic restrictions. At the time of opening, such works as the installation of fences, the arrangement of a technical exit to the sewage treatment plants, the application of road markings, as well as the dismantling of a temporary bridge used during the repair period remained unfulfilled.

At the moment, a specific reason for the re-closure has not been officially announced. The administration of the city district of Serpukhov and relevant departments have not yet provided explanations on this issue, and the timing of the restoration of traffic has not been published.

This bridge, built in 1967, has a length of more than 25 meters and is an important transport structure connecting the village of Buturlino with the city of Serpukhov.
