In Dnipro, on Galina Mazepy Street, on the section between Obraztsovaya and Yantarnaya Streets, repair work is being completed on an emergency section of the road. This place has long needed updating – there was no asphalt pavement here, only slag and crushed stone, which created dangerous conditions for traffic, reports “Dnepr Operativny” with reference to Dniprovsky City Council.
Local resident Anna Lobanova, who has lived here for over 57 years, said that due to the huge holes and poor passability, it was difficult to move along the street. However, after the work was done, the situation changed dramatically.
“There were huge potholes here, and during icy conditions it was impossible to drive at all. Sometimes after heavy rains you could even buy boats to somehow get home. So this repair is a real miracle for us, we did not expect it. And even the taxi driver, the only one who agreed to pick us up through such potholes, arrived and did not recognize the street after the repair. We are all happy and infinitely grateful for such a gift,” said local resident Galina Lobanova.
Repair work has been going on for the second week. According to the deputy director of the department of improvement and infrastructure of the Dnipro city council Dmitry Korobov, the work is planned to be completed by the end of September.
“Over the past 30 years, repairs have not been carried out on this section even once. Now we have to lay about 5 thousand square meters of asphalt pavement,” he noted.
In total, about 300 thousand square meters of roads have already been repaired in Dnepr this year, and by the end of the year, city authorities plan to complete work on more than 250 sites.
Let us recall that earlier we reported how Dnepr internet providers are preparing for winter power outages. We also warned about the closure of part of the Donetsk highway for three months.
Emergency Road Repair in Dnipro’s Galina Mazepy Street Brings Relief to Locals
Residents of Dnipro, Ukraine, are breathing a sigh of relief as repair work on a notoriously hazardous section of Galina Mazepy Street comes to an end. The stretch between Obraztsovaya and Yantarnaya Streets had been plagued by a lack of asphalt pavement, leaving only slag and crushed stone to maneuver on, creating treacherous conditions for motorists and pedestrians alike.
According to local news outlet ”Dnepr Operativny” and the Dniprovsky City Council, the repair work, which began two weeks ago, has transformed the street, much to the delight of residents who had grown accustomed to navigating the potholed road.
Anna Lobanova, a local resident of 57 years, spoke about the challenges she faced daily due to the poor condition of the road. “It was tough to move along the street because of the huge holes and poor passability. But after the repair, the situation has changed dramatically,” she said.
Lobanova’s sentiments were echoed by fellow resident Galina Lobanova, who described the previous state of the road as nothing short of hazardous. “There were huge potholes here, and during icy conditions, it was impossible to drive at all. Sometimes after heavy rains, you could even buy boats to somehow get home. So, this repair is a real miracle for us; we did not expect it. And even the taxi driver, the only one who agreed to pick us up through such potholes, arrived and did not recognize the street after the repair. We are all happy and infinitely grateful for such a gift,” she exclaimed.
The repair work, which is being overseen by the department of improvement and infrastructure of the Dnipro city council, is expected to be completed soon. Deputy director Dmitry Korobov confirmed that the project is on track, much to the relief of residents who had grown tired of the hazardous conditions.
The completion of the repair work marks a significant improvement in the infrastructure of Dnipro, enhancing the safety and accessibility of the city’s streets. For residents like Anna and Galina Lobanova, the new road is a welcome change, making daily life easier and more convenient.
