Krasny Most Bridge in Critical State, Residents Fear Heavy Trucks

The bridge in Krasny Most microdistrict, currently under special oversight by the Ministry of Construction, Road Infrastructure, and Transport of Zabaykalsky Krai, is in a critical state. Residents have repeatedly raised concerns about heavy trucks crossing the structurally compromised bridge, leading to authorities implementing temporary measures.

The bridge's condition has deteriorated to a pre-emergency state, as per expert assessments. Residents have previously protested against heavy truck traffic, which has exacerbated the bridge's instability. In response, authorities have restricted vehicle access, allowing only passenger cars, ambulances, and water trucks to cross. To further mitigate the issue, authorities plan to install weight-and-height limit frames and surveillance cameras at the bridge entrance. However, a recent removal of a height barrier has enabled heavy trucks to resume using the bridge, raising concerns about the bridge's safety and the effectiveness of the implemented measures.

The bridge in Krasny Most microdistrict remains in a precarious condition, with residents continuing to voice their concerns about heavy truck traffic. Authorities have implemented temporary restrictions and plan further measures to ensure the bridge's safety, but the recent reinstatement of heavy truck access has raised questions about the effectiveness of these measures. Further updates on the bridge situation can be found in a report by ZabTV.
