The main road which connects Moscow with Pribaltic,-route M9 Baltija in the nearest years waits significant reconstruction.
The main motor road of the M9 "Baltic" (Moscow-Volokolamsk-the state border with Latvia) has reached 618 kilometres. It is part of the European route E22, which runs along the Baltic Sea. In Russia, the road lies on the lands of the Moscow, Tver and Pskov regions. At the departure from Moscow it is a luxurious eight-band highway with a futuristic interchange with the MCAD, a dividing strip, outlaws and a wide shoulder. Then it narrows it down, narrows it down. After Volokolamsk (98 km), the separation barrier and the barrier barrier are disappearing. And also the "Highway" signs allowing to move at speeds of up to 120 mph. Up to the border with Tver Oblast, the road is still decent, and the road turns into a test site even for the lucky stars-it is 150 kilometers of nightmare to the Western Dvina. Experienced drivers recommend that this site be carried out only in the daytime-too great a risk to damage the suspension. Enormous pits are five years old, but there are still coals, burgers, and huge amounts of money, and narrow shoulders make the private overtaking risky. In the Pskov region, drivers assess the road to a solid four. After telling a lot of things, she seems like a great one. The next is the border with Latvia and the European Union, and the queue of trucks usually starts at five kilometers from the cordon. But for cars, it's a separate line! In general, the Baltics are full of gorks, difficult turns-and, accordingly, "Overtaking is prohibited." It is necessary to be very careful: in such places are often hidden by the video cameras, especially in the Tver region. Their energy is to repair the track. Like all the other radial highways coming out of the capital, the Baltics are overloaded at the head office: about 100 thousand people pass here a day. (60% passenger cars, 40% freight). In the Tver and Pskov regions, the flow of the flow can be between 3 and 5 thousand. vehicles. On the other, there are more trucks. The plan for the reconstruction of the M9 highway, calculated over the next five years, takes these features into account. The reconstruction will begin in the next year from Moscow to the Small Moscow Ring (Moscow Ring Railway). In the first section, to the Krasnogorsk junction, the road should be extended to 10 lanes (by narrowing the dividing strip and part of the shoulders), at the second section (before the crossing with the MMC)-up to eight lanes. And then part of the road from MMC to Volokolamsk, too, is going to expand-up to six lanes. In addition, 30 artificial structures (including six bridges and 23 overpasses), 12 interchanges and elevated pedestrian crossings will be fully or partially rebuilt. Four years from now, the entire track to the 23rd km and the main transport links will be lit-yes there will be light! And the first 45 km of the road will be released by noise shields. And another: it is planned to introduce an automated traffic management system on the highway. They'll make it easier for drivers to navigate, keep track of traffic and congestion. And in the Tver region, the whole ugly section by 2013 must be in the normative state ... And then we will fly: the permitted speed in the Moscow region-up to one hundred and twenty! It's going to be good, too, right up to the border. It is clear that this task will last for a minimum of four years on the Baltic route.
