Builders, driving the road across the main Caucasian Ridge, have already passed the 30-kilometer benchmark of the route. The construction of a gravel version of the 50-kilometer road will be completed by the end of September. Several road-building organisations are engaged in construction. Some 300 people work in mountains. Two teams of bridge builders have erected four bridges.
Bridges are to be built at another three sections.
The Chechen leadership pays special attention to the construction of the highway. According to specialists, expenses for road construction will be recouped over one year of operation. Apart from motor traffic, the route is planned to be used for building a railway and pipelines. All rights reserved.
