Announced the favorite of the competition for the right to conclude a municipal contract in the process of rebuilding the bridge over the Volga river in Tver region on km 176 (II phase) of the road M-10 "Russia" Moscow - Tver - Novgorod - St. Petersburg.
Work on the full repair price 7,88 billion rubles is planned to be completed by the end of the summer of 2019.
The customer of the work performed by the Federal state institution "Management of the highway Moscow - St. Petersburg Federal Federal road Agency". The conversion will affect all the old span of the bridge, with virtually absolute replacement. When all the experts Mostotrest will extend the roadway number of lanes will be increased from 2 to 4. The project includes a new overpass at the intersection of railroad Avenue 50 years of October, the exit from the bridge at Avenue 50 years of October, the road approaches to the bridge, entrance from street, Cherkassy, passages under bridges and exits adjacent to highway areas.
Will be renovated and expanded consolidation of banks, built retaining walls. To increase the comfort of living of the inhabitants will be installed noise screens, and to improve the environmental situation, treatment restored buildings.
All these events will allow to increase the computational speed of traffic on the bridge to 100 km per hour. These works focused on the reconstruction of the bridge is aimed at improving movement in the direction of Moscow.
Professionals Mostotrest has already fulfilled the first part of the project highway M-10 in the direction from Moscow via Tver, Novgorod to St. Petersburg. In early September 2013, the scope of phase 1 was built a new bridge in 22 metres below the river from the old one for 4 lanes in the direction of Saint-Petersburg. The event focused on the reconstruction of the old bridge in the framework of the second phase will increase the number of lanes in both instructions up to 8 and to eliminate congestion, limiting the movement not only on the highway M-10, but the output from Tver.
The reconstructed bridge across the Volga was built in the early 1960-ies. Real-time static system of the bridge and the type superstructures do not have reserves to ensure the shipping envelope width of 120 meters and increase capacity to the level of expected loads A14 and H14. The growth of vehicle traffic and increase permanent loads require increasing the number of lanes on the bridge passage and, as a consequence, a considerable increase of the width of the superstructure. All these reasons have necessitated the replacement of the old superstructure during the reconstruction of the bridge.
