It has become known how to solve the transport problem in the Novokoltsovsky and Yugo-Zapadny districts of Yekaterinburg.
The authorities of Sverdlovsk Oblast have proposed a solution to the transport problems in the Novokoltsovsky and South-Western districts of Yekaterinburg. At a meeting of the Legislative Assembly’s Committee on Infrastructure and Housing Policy, deputies discussed with representatives of the regional authorities, the Sverdlovsk Railway and Ural Federal University (UrFU) the concept of the “Yekaterinburg Central Passenger Ring.” The new transport project is intended to connect the city’s outlying districts with its center and suburbs.
According to the committee chairman, Valentin Lappo, the South-Western district is planned to gain a reliable transport link between the central blocks and the new residential areas — Solnechny, Akademichesky and Shirokaya Rechka.
“The land-surveying and planning projects have already been completed; the next stage will be design,” E1.RU quotes the speaker as saying.
However, implementing such a large-scale initiative requires substantial funding, so the region is counting on support from the federal budget. The “Novokoltsovsky” route is currently being included in the project passport of the federal project “Development of Public Transport,” which is part of the national project “Infrastructure for Life.”
The need to improve transport accessibility to UrFU’s new campus was also emphasized by the chairman of the university’s Student Union, Mikhail Podkovyrkin:
“The problem of getting to the campus is acute. Students compiled proposals and sent them to the authorities. We were heard, and now we are jointly seeking optimal solutions,” he said.
Today there are four bus routes operating in the district, the most in demand among students being No. 56. Under the transport reform, it is planned to replace it with higher-capacity buses and to consider allocating dedicated lanes for public transport.
The buildings of the second phase of the UrFU campus are in the final stages of construction. Their commissioning is scheduled for December 2025, and classes will begin with the new academic year. At the same time, the number of students will increase significantly, making the development of the transport network particularly relevant.
