The French state-run humanitarian operator CDCS handed over to the State Highway Agency of Ukraine three river crossings to be installed in Chernihiv region.
This was announced by the Minister of Infrastructure, Oleksandr Kubrakov.
“The bridges provided by France will be used to improve the mobility of the population in Chernihiv region. The priority is their setup on those sections of roads on which the humanitarian situation in the region critically depends. We are working with our international partners to increase the number of such bridges in the de-occupied regions,” he said.
Kubrakov clarified that the European partners ordered structures from the Matiere producer, which manufactured them according to the parameters required by Ukraine. Three bridges, 68, 34.2 and 23 meters long, will help ensure steady traffic on the main state roads of Chernihiv region.
Since February 24, 27 bridges and overpasses have been destroyed in Chernihiv region. Traffic has already been restored through 20 temporary crossings. Thanks to the efforts of the Armed Forces, rescuers, and road workers, it was possible to avoid a humanitarian disaster in the liberated region. (Ukrinform/Business World Magazine)
