Krasnodar. Starting February 17th, changes in traffic flow are expected on the M-4 “Don” highway near the Fadeevsky overpass. According to the city’s transport and road infrastructure department, the changes are related to the continuation of the large-scale reconstruction of the overpass.

At this stage, the demolition of the remaining part of the old overpass is planned, along with the start of constructing bored piles for a new support. Specialists have already begun preparatory work, including rerouting traffic flows and widening the roadway. In the near future, new road markings will be applied, weather permitting.

Traffic heading towards Rostov-on-Don will turn left to bypass the closed section and then will be able to return to its lanes. Despite the imposed restrictions, traffic on the federal highway remains open with four lanes – two in each direction.

It was previously reported that traffic on the Turgenevsky Bridge in Krasnodar has been restricted.
