The capital bridges of Kiev, suffering from "fatigue" structures and landslides have become another example of systemic problems in city administration. The rotting and collapsing metal fences of the North Bridge are only one of the numerous examples of unsatisfactory status of the key transport arteries of the capital.
The KSCA noted that the relevant instances carry out regular monitoring of the state of bridges. However, photographs appear on social networks that indicate that taxpayers disappear in an unknown direction.
Despite the millions of hryvnias, which are allocated annually for the repair and maintenance of bridges, the people of Kiev continue to risk their lives, moving emergency structures. The Kyiv City State Administration assures that KP "Kyivavtodormost" is carrying out large -scale repair work. In particular, it is about the South and North Bridges, Kakhovsky's overpass # 2 and the Astacade Congress from the Dnieper descent.
“In the framework of works on current (medium) repair by the KP“ Kyivavtodormist ”in the period from 2018 to 2022, they were withdrawn from the disabled and limited able -bodied states of 11 structures. In the framework of works on major repairs (reconstruction) - withdrawal from the disabled and restricted.
However, new problems appear faster than old ones. This forces more transparency in the work of the city authorities and attracts the public to controlling the use of urban resources.
The condition of the capital bridges requires immediate and systematic measures by the city administration. Transparency in budget expenditures, effective monitoring and timely repair is not only a duty to taxpayers, but also the issue of safety for all residents of the capital. Responsibility for the state of bridges lies in the city authorities, and it must ensure the proper level of security and reliability of these key transport arteries.
