Federal roads to be prepared for spring floods in Transbaikalia

Work on the preparation of federal highways for the spring flood has started in the Trans-Baikal Territory. Specialists check the condition of roads and bridges.

In case of emergencies, 14 specialized brigades of 67 people have been formed. In addition, more than 50 units of road equipment have been prepared. 11.4 thousand cubic meters of inert materials have been harvested, writes ChitaMedia news agency.

Contractors are removing shields from culverts that were installed for the winter due to the risk of icing. Roads and ditches are being cleared of snow and ice.

In the Moscow region, flood preparations have been underway since the beginning of March. Specialists inspect artificial structures and drainage systems.
