Driving regulations for Novokoltsovskaya highway to change on April 15, 2008

‘The repair jobs at Novokoltsovskaya highway will resume on April 15, 2008 and will probably last till July 15, 2008 as far as the left-hand part of the road in concerned, and till September 15, 2008 for the right-hand part of the road. This means the driving regulations will have to change for this period until the highway is re-launched in October 2008,’ the spokesperson for Sverdlovsk Region Highway Administration Sergey Ibragimov says.

‘Heavy-duty trucks will have to detour through Starokoltsovskiy and Tyumenskiy highways; in fact, these bulky vehicles might be banned from Novokoltsovskaya highway for good some time in the future, but that’s to be settled after the repairs are over,’ he notes.
