Drivers behind the gasoline situation in Yekaterinburg have started to block traffic on Kosmonavtov (VIDEO)
Queues of cars lining up in rows waiting for their turn at the gas station have begun to complicate traffic on Cosmonauts Avenue. According to the public group "Evil Yekaterinburg," last night vehicles trying to fill their tanks blocked three lanes of traffic at the Gazpromneft gas station (102 Cosmonauts Avenue), creating a jam on the main highway. The cause, it is reported, may have been a fuel truck that took too long, in the opinion of drivers, to unload fuel (1.5 hours).
In the comments, users noted that the traffic jam started from the former Lavrov House of Culture. They also expressed confusion as to why the State Traffic Inspectorate did not intervene in the situation.
Furthermore, Yekaterinburg residents noticed that public announcements on social media about whether there is gasoline (or no queues) at a particular gas station create unhealthy hype.
People are also frustrated that according to reports from regional authorities, particularly Vice-Governor Sergey Shvindt, there is no shortage of gasoline in the region, and fuel supplies are sufficient. Such statements do not quite correlate with the queues at the gas stations.
As reported by Uralweb.ru, this morning a line formed from Artinskaya Street to another Gazpromneft gas station on Cosmonauts Avenue - at the intersection with Zavokzalnaya Street. It is possible that the morning rush is driven by the upcoming weekend.
