Work is due to commence shortly for the Krasnodar Bypass project in Southern Russia. The construction activity on the Far Western Bypass stretch should get underway in the third quarter of 2020.

Before the building work commences, archaeological digs are being carried out in the area. A 59,000m2 area has been targeted for the historical excavation work. This activity is a requirement for the project.

The bypass will be 51km in length in all. It will feature four bridges, 20 overpasses and three major interchanges.

    The first stage of a controversial Russian bridge project is now complete, with the link having been opened to use by cars and buses. The Kerch Strait bridge spans the Black Sea, connecting Russia’s Taman Peninsula in Krasnodar with Crimea, the latter having been controversially annexed by Russia from Ukraine in 2014. The official opening of the 19km-long bridge was carried out by Russia’s president, Vladimir Putin, who drove across the link in a Russian-manufactured Kamaz truck to reach the city of Kerch.
