Syktyvkar launches two-year repair blitz across 12 districts in 2026–2027
Syktyvkar is preparing for a major repair campaign across 12 districts. The work, planned for 2026 and 2027, will target key streets and residential areas as part of two federal programs. Utility providers are now finalising their schedules and will release details to the public within two weeks.
Repairs have already begun in some locations. A water main upgrade at 6 Pushkin Street is underway under the Comfortable Urban Environment initiative. Meanwhile, a full overhaul of the water pipeline on Internatsionalnaya Street is set to start in April, funded by the Infrastructure for Life program.
The campaign will cover central areas like Ulitsa Lenina, Prospekt Mira, and Ulitsa Babushkina, as well as neighbourhoods in Verkhnyaya Pesha and Zabelskiy. Andrei Selivanov, CEO of Syktyvkar Vodokanal, confirmed that the work aligns with federal funding timelines. Alexander Gontar, First Deputy Mayor, added that procurement processes are nearly complete, allowing providers to finalise their plans.
Mayor Maxim Martyshin highlighted the need for coordination between road services and utility companies to minimise disruptions. He also stressed the importance of keeping residents informed about construction zones and alternative routes. Official updates on the repair schedules will be published once coordination with City Hall begins in two weeks.
The repair campaign will run through 2027, affecting infrastructure in both central and outer districts. Residents will receive detailed information on active sites and detours once the finalised plans are made public. The projects form part of broader national efforts to upgrade urban utilities and living conditions.
