The timing of the launch of the road bypassing Alushta has been announced

The route bypassing Alushta is planned to be completed by the end of 2026. It will reduce the travel time from Simferopol to Yalta by about an hour, the Crimean Highway Service reported on Friday, March 7.

This is the second section of the Donskoye–Perevalnoye–Alushta highway. The length of the four-lane road will be 7.8 km, it will pass through the village of Izobilnoye. The speed will be 100 km/h in the main course and 60 km/h in the mountainous area.

The work is performed by the company "VAD", writes IA SevastopolMedia. The project will also include the construction of two interchanges at different levels, seven overpasses, 35 culverts, a bridge over the Ulu-Uzen River and a viaduct.

Using the Donskoye–Perevalnoye–Alushta highway, you can also get from the Tavrida highway to the southern coast of Crimea, bypassing the republican capital, saving about 1.5 hours.

Earlier it was reported that it may take from 90 billion to 160 billion rubles to lay new railway lines and repair old ones between Crimea and the central part of Russia through new regions. Departure from the peninsula will be carried out through Dzhankoy and Novoalekseyevskaya to the Zaporizhia region, and then through the railways of Novorossiya.
