It has become known when the long-delayed interchange near Kalina will be completed.
The interchange near "Kalina" is planned to be completed next year. Yekaterinburg mayor Alexey Orlov said on E1.RU that the new completion date for the project is the end of 2026. They will not change the contractor despite the criminal case that was reported only recently.
"Replacing the contractor is difficult. In that case it would be necessary to mothball the site and assess the amount of work already completed. I very much hope that the criminal case will not affect the execution of the municipal contract. All five stages of construction must be completed by the end of 2026," Orlov emphasized.
Earlier the administration extended the contract until autumn 2027. The project's completion dates were postponed several times — originally the interchange was planned to open for Yekaterinburg's 300th anniversary in 2023. During that time the project's cost rose from 6.6 to 8.8 billion rubles.
Earlier reports said that in Ufa the general director of AlmakorGroup LLC, Alexey Afonsky, had been arrested. He is the contractor for the construction of the interchange near "Kalina" in Yekaterinburg. He is accused of fraud on an especially large scale. The accused could face imprisonment of up to ten years.
