Beating ‘negligence and corruption,’ construction of Darnytskyi Bridge is completed in Kyiv
The reconstruction of the Darnytskyi Bridge in Kyiv has been completed, and two new exits are open to traffic towards the Paton Bridge and the area of Osokorky, Minister of Community Development, Territories and Infrastructure Oleksandr Kubrakov announced on July 6.
This will make it possible for the city to provide a direct connection between the capital’s Osokorky, Pozniaky and Berezniaky residential districts, Kubrakov said.
"The Darnytskyi Bridge has become one of the symbols of Kyiv's long-term construction projects," Kubrakov said.
"For more than 10 years, it has become a monument to negligence and corruption. However, even with the reopening of the Darnytskyi Bridge, our fight against long-term construction projects and emergency bridges is not over.”
Kubrakov said that the government wants to assess Kyiv’s bridges, and develop solutions to protect the transport infrastructure of the capital and maintain its proper condition.
The reconstruction of the Darnytskyi Bridge was launched in 2021. Due to Russia’s full-scale invasion, work was suspended in March-April 2022 but resumed in May 2022.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
