On October 22, Tatarstan Prime Minister Ildar Khalikov, Minister of Transport and Roads Lenar Safin, Head of Kazan Executive Committee Denis Kalinkin, Head of Administration of Aviastroitelny and Novo-Savinosvky districts of Kazan Timur Alibaev and Director of GKU “Glavtatdortrans” Eduard Danilov took part in opening of the reconstructed road in Academician Pavlov Street, Kazan.

Reconstruction works started on August 12 and finished on October 10 in the current year. The cost of works made 136.4 million roubles.

Eduard Danilov said that the traffic is quite heavy in this street and there were big traffic jams before reconstruction. The road was bumpy and maintenance works were not done for 20 years.

Head of Kazan Executive Committee Denis Kalinkin thanked Tatarstan President and Government of the republic.

“In spite of hard times 1.3 billion roubles were allocated for Kazan, and we continued maintenance works after Universiade that gave impetus to development of road facilities,” he said.

Ildar Khalikov congratulated all road workers on their professional holiday that is celebrated on the third Sunday of October.

“I would like to thank you for coping with complicated tasks on reconstruction and construction of roads during preparation for Universiade. This year you face increasingly stringent requirements and large amount of work and do everything in time,” he said.

Ildar Khalikov continued that opening of the repaired road is a long-awaited event for the city dwellers.

Letters of appreciation of Tatarstan Cabinet of Ministers and Commendation of Kazan Mayor were handed to road workers.
