A modern free public toilet was suddenly installed on the EKAD.

      Modern toilets have appeared for the first time on the highways of Sverdlovsk Oblast — until now drivers could only use restrooms at gas stations, and in other cases had to look for a spot in the woods.

      The new module includes three stalls, one of which is intended for people with limited mobility. It operates around the clock and year-round: in winter the interior is kept warm. The structure is made in an anti-vandal design to a bespoke project and is completely autonomous.

      An operator is responsible for the cleanliness of the restroom: regular wet cleaning is carried out, and soap and necessary hygiene products are provided. The Sverdlovsk Oblast Road Administration monitors the quality of service.

      This is a pilot project aimed at developing tourist routes. EKAD, in addition to its transit role, has become part of popular tourist directions — Demidovsky and Imperial — so equipping the highway with sanitary pavilions is considered especially important. In the future such modules are planned to be installed at key rest areas along regional roads.
