Prime Minister of Ukraine Yulia Svyrydenko held a meeting on road repairs with Deputy Prime Minister for Reconstruction of Ukraine and Minister for Communities and Territories Development Oleksii Kuleba and Head of the State Agency for Restoration and Infrastructure Development Serhii Sukhomlyn.
Patch repairs of road surfaces have already begun on international and national highways, including in frontline regions. These are not capital works, but basic safety and passability measures. Weather conditions allow repair teams to work. The repairs will be completed until June 1.
“Following the meeting, we will allocate additional funding from the state budget reserve fund to ensure patch repairs of roads in frontline regions and high-traffic national highways of state importance,” emphasised Yulia Svyrydenko.
The Head of Government stressed that roads were a matter of effective logistics for the Defence Forces, evacuation of the wounded, as well as ensuring the economy and the life of communities. (Government portal)
