Project description

Under implementation of this project it is proposed to sign a concession agreement with the investor to determine the right to own and to use the object. Volgograd Region is one of the largest Russian transport hubs with a strategic significance. Three federal highways (1Р 228, М-6 and М-21) lead from Volgograd to neighboring regions of Russia and to Kazakhstan. The planned turnpike belt highway, running for 100km, will connect the above three federal highways which pass through the city. The purpose of the construction is to create an alternative transport corridor which will enable an increase in export and import transportation and international transit in the Russia – Kazakhstan international transport corridor. It will also help to attract cargo flows from the regions of the Caspian Sea, Iran and states of the Indian Ocean to the Russian transport communications.

Unique features of the project

To increase the investment attractiveness of the project, it is proposed to transfer an area adjacent to the territory of the future highway for construction of residential and industrial infrastructural sites, including a large hotel and tourist complexes, terminal logistics centers, residential real property, recreational areas and so on.

Brief positioning of project

Volgograd region is one of largest transport hubs of strategic importance in Russia. Three federal roads (1R 228, М-6 and М-21) depart from Volgograd into adjacent regions of Russia and Kazakhstan. Absence of a bypass motorway in Volgograd results in transit motor transport driving on federal highways Syzran - Saratov - Volgograd, Moscow - Volgograd – Astrakhan/Elista, Volgograd - Kamensk-Shakhtinsky, uses the street network of the city, that extends along Volga river for more than 90 km. The construction objective of this object is improvement of ecological situation due to a redirection of transit transport away from the city limits. Creation of an alternative transport corridor (Volgograd City Bypass) will allow to provide traffic of both transit and urban transport in a non-stop regime at the greatest possible speeds without delays on signal lights and intersections. Volgograd City Bypass is considered as one of key construction objects in the scope of complex development of the Volgograd traffic hub. The total length of Volgograd City Bypass is 98.155 km.
