Reconstruction of Zaliznychna Street is ongoing in Lviv. On the section from Yasna Street to Sharanevycha Street, the main construction works have been completed, and in the near future, weather permitting, the top layer of asphalt concrete is to be laid along the entire length of this section.
According to LKP «Lviveavtodor», engineering networks have already been installed on this part of the road, the base layer of asphalt concrete has been laid, kerbs have been installed along the carriageway, and paving of the footways and laying of setts in the parking areas is being finalised.
«Next is the laying of the top layer of asphalt concrete. As soon as weather conditions allow, we will start the works. We plan to open this section to traffic by the end of the year», — Mykola Vlasiuk, Director of LKP «Lviveavtodor»
Works are being carried out in parallel on the next part of the street — from Sharanevycha Street to Korotka Street, where engineering networks are currently being installed. The reconstruction contractor is TzOV «Onur Construction International». The works are being carried out on behalf of LKP «Lviveavtodor» and are financed with loan funds.
The final stage of upgrading Zaliznychna Street on the section from Sharanevycha Street to Korotka Street began on 7 September. In this connection, a diversion has been organised. From Horodotska Street, traffic is being routed via Khotynska Street, Holubovycha Street and Holovatskoho Street, then Dekarta Street, Marka Vovchka Street, O. Stepanivny Street, Kvitky-Osnovianenka Street, Bortnianskoho Street, Lutskyi Street, exiting onto Shevchenka Street. From Shevchenka Street, traffic runs along Levandivska Street and Zaliznychna Street to the point of closure, after which the diversion goes via Yasna Street, Brativ Duzhykh Street, Brativ Mikhnovskyh Street, exiting onto Horodotska Street.
Repairs to Zaliznychna Street started at the end of last year. The reconstruction project provides for a complete replacement of all utilities, renewal of the road surface, the installation of two cycle lanes, pavement repairs and the creation of parking spaces. The carriageway and cycle lanes will be surfaced with asphalt concrete, parking spaces will be paved with setts, and pavements with special paving slabs.
Once the works are completed, Zaliznychna Street is expected to become more convenient and safer for all road users. In particular, most pedestrian crossings will be raised to pavement level, improving comfort and safety for pedestrians.
