In Krasnodar, all bridges and overpasses were treated with anti-icing materials overnight. A sand-salt mixture was used for this purpose, according to the city’s press service.
Drivers are asked not to drive on summer tires. This endangers all road users.
Krasnodar
Krasnodar is a major city in southern Russia, founded in 1793 as a fortress named Yekaterinodar (meaning “Catherine’s Gift”) in honor of Empress Catherine the Great. It served as the historical and cultural center of the Kuban Cossacks before being renamed Krasnodar (“Red Gift”) in 1920 following the Russian Revolution. Today, it is a vibrant administrative and economic hub for the region, known for its parks, Cossack heritage, and subtropical climate.
