The areas separated by the railway will be united by an overpass, and cars will be able to transit along Lipetskaya Street to the Moscow Ring Road and towards the center.
In the south of the capital they are building one of the most important local residents infrastructure facilities - an overpass at the intersection of Lipetskaya and Elevatornaya streets. They plan to open it in the fall.
The overpass will become part of the road that will run from Elevatornaya Street through Podolsk Cadets to the Red Mayak. This will be the transverse ligament between Warsaw highway and Lipetskaya street.
Western Biryulyovo and Eastern Biryulyovo are separated by the Paveletskaya railway, through which there is not a single crossing. Chertanovo Central also became isolated from its neighbors. You can travel from district to district only through the Moscow Ring Road. Last year, they began to build a 5.6-kilometer-long transverse road here, which will stretch from Warsaw Highway to Lipetskaya Street.
At the first stage, in addition to the overpass on Lipetskaya Street, they plan to open new site Elevatornaya street and the underground passage at the intersection of Elevatornaya and Biryulyovskaya, next to the Tsaritsyno microdistrict. At the second stage, a crossing over the railway will be built.
This project will significantly improve transport links in the south of Moscow. There is not a single metro station in East Biryulyovo, so residents use ground transportation and personal cars, which approximately 20 percent of them have.
How the south of Moscow will travel
The road that will connect the streets of Podolsk Kursantov and Lipetskaya, in 2017. The main object of the first stage of the highway will be a 600-meter overpass on Lipetskaya Street.
This street is considered the southern gate of Moscow. It is from here that the M4 Don and M6 Caspian highways begin, which connect the capital with the regions of Southern Russia, Northern Caucasus and the countries of Transcaucasia, as well as with all the Black Sea resorts. From Vostochny Biryulyov you can go to the city center and to the Moscow Ring Road only through Lipetskaya Street. It takes over not only the traffic flow of the region, but also the south-east of the Moscow region, which reduces throughput to 85 percent.
Using the new direct overpass on Lipetskaya, cars will travel to the Moscow Ring Road and towards the center in transit. Two one-way side passages will be built along it for turning from 6th Radialnaya and Elevatornaya streets, as well as left turns in the underpass space. Thus, there will be an additional exit from the new microdistrict.
According to preliminary calculations by the State Unitary Enterprise “NIiPI General Plan of the City of Moscow”, the overpass will increase the capacity of Lipetskaya-Elevatornaya by 25-30 percent. Traffic flows will not intersect here, in addition, traffic along Lipetskaya Street will become traffic-light-free.
At the first stage, a new 600-meter section of Elevatornaya Street is also being built - from Lipetskaya to the intersection with Biryulyovskaya. An underground passage will be opened at this intersection, which will not only ensure the safety of pedestrians, but will also increase traffic capacity by 20 percent.
At the second stage of construction, eight kilometers of roads will be reconstructed and built, an overpass will be made across railway tracks and three pedestrian crossings. The six-lane overpass, which will connect the districts, will stretch for 787 meters.
The streets of Krasny Mayak, Podolskiye Kursanty and Elevatornaya will be widened, side passages and drive-in pockets at public transport stops will be installed along them.
All this will increase traffic capacity and improve the safety of pedestrians and motorists, and most importantly, will open the path between areas. Traffic flows will be redistributed between Varshavskoye Highway, Lipetskaya, Chertanovskaya and Baku streets.
What awaits residents
They plan to improve the area near the new roads. After completion of the work, about two thousand trees and shrubs will be planted here, and 102.5 thousand square meters lawns, which will have a beneficial effect on ecological situation in the area.
There are currently no metro stations in Biryulyovo. The plan to build from Chertanovskaya to road street. Now it is being designed.
It is expected that it will run through the Chertanovo Central and Chertanovo Yuzhnoye districts along Krasny Mayak Street, where it will be combined with the existing tram line. Then the route will lead to the southern lobby of the Prazhskaya station, cross Kirovogradskaya Street, Varshavskoe Highway, Kursk direction railway and will go to Biryulyovo Western and Eastern.
The length of the line will be 8.2 kilometers. During rush hour, from 11 to 15 trams will run here, average speed the movement of which will be 25-28 kilometers per hour. The launch of high-speed trams will allow residents of the Southern Administrative District to save 10-15 minutes to get to the metro.
Two different Biryulevs finally united. Now residents of Vostochny will not only be able to visit Western without going by the railway, but also get to the metro without the crowds on the bus. All thanks to the overpass on Elevatornaya Street across the Paveletsky direction of the Moscow Railway, which was opened by Mayor Sergei Sobyanin.
Bridge between two Biryulyovo
In less than two years, builders erected an 848-meter overpass over the Paveletsky railway tracks. It connected the new section of Elevatornaya Street and Podolsky Kursantov Street. Thanks to this, the route between Western and Eastern Biryulyovo was shortened. Up to this point from Nakhimovsky Prospekt There were no crossings across this railway to the Moscow Ring Road. The new overpass has three lanes in each direction. To avoid unnecessary traffic lights, an underground pedestrian crossing was built at the entrance to it.
For those who live in Eastern Biryulyovo, work in Central Chertanovo and travel there by car, the road will be three times shorter. Travel time will be reduced by 3–4 times. The overpass will allow for new routes ground transport. A tram line may even be built in the future.

Previously, residents of East Biryulyovo could only get to the metro by bus - to the Tsaritsyno station. Because of this, it was overloaded during rush hour. Now they can get to Prazhskaya (gray line) in literally 10 minutes.
Single highway
The erected overpass will become part of the new highway, which will run along Elevatornaya Street, Podolskiy Kursantov Street and Krasny Mayak Street. The road is planned to be opened by the end of the year.
All the streets that became part new route, will become wider. Elevatornaya will be four lanes wider, Podolskiy Kursanty and Krasny Mayak will be two wider. As a result, almost the entire highway will have at least six lanes. Considering that the road stretches almost in a straight line from Lipetskaya Street to Varshavskoye Shosse, it turns out to be a full-fledged backup of the MKAD section. The highway's capacity will be up to 2.2 thousand cars per hour.
And so that residents of neighboring houses are not disturbed by noise, it is planned to install almost five thousand double-glazed windows with noise-proof valves. And the road will not rattle even in an apartment with open windows. Also, 670 trees and 930 shrubs will be planted along the new route, which will protect the area from dust.
Near future

Thanks to the construction of new routes and the reconstruction of existing ones in Moscow, the speed of traffic has increased, and road congestion has decreased by 23%. Over the next three years, more than 350 km of new roads will be introduced in the city, of which 115 km will be built this year. During this period, more than 60 bridges, overpasses and overpasses and 36 pedestrian crossings will also be built.
On Thursday, August 31, the mayor of Moscow With Sergei Sobyanin opened new overpass on Elevatornaya Street across the tracks of the Paveletsky direction of the Moscow Railway. The city authorities decided that it would be most effective to connect several southern regions cities is to give them a modern road. Here, in the south of the capital, the Paveletsk direction separates the Eastern and Western Biryulyovo, and Chertanovo Central also remained “cut off”. To travel from one district to another, motorists had to take Moskovskaya ring road and make a decent detour through traffic jams ranging from five to seven kilometers long.
The new overpass now connects four districts at once, which have been separated for decades, he emphasized Sergei Sobyanin. - We launched central object this bundle.
The overpass was built within a year. Motorists without traffic lights and congestion can now move from Elevatornaya and 6th Radialnaya streets to Lipetskaya without any problems. Their travel time is reduced on average by three to four times. Thus transport accessibility districts where 450 thousand citizens live, seriously improved. After all, the road has become a new backup for the Moscow Ring Road between Lipetskaya Street and Varshavskoye Shosse.
This is a very good and necessary regional connection,” emphasized the first deputy head of the Moscow Construction Department Petr Aksenov. “We did not wait for the complete completion of work on the transport hub from Lipetskaya Street to Podolsk Cadets Street, and launched the overpass.
According to him, during the year the builders had to work very hard on this site. The removal of communications was especially difficult. And the most expensive part of it is the relocation of the heating plant. CHPP-26 supplied Biryulyovo Western, Biryulyovo Eastern, Tsaritsyno, Orekhovo-Borisovo Northern and Orekhovo-Borisovo Southern with heat. The 110 and 220 volt power lines were also updated, and the water main was also rebuilt.
Communications were moved in order to free up areas for construction, he explained Petr Aksenov.

Old garages turned out to be another problem. Many years ago they appeared on the railroad right-of-way. However, their for a long time no one touched it. The city had to negotiate with their owners about the dismantling of the structures and compensation for their demolition.

They turned from temporary to permanent. But we tried to resolve this issue as correctly as possible, without offending people,” he added. Petr Aksenov.
It was not easy for the contractor to build a new regional connection near the busy tracks of the Paveletsky direction of the railway. However, the construction of the overpass did not disrupt the schedule of freight and passenger transportation in this part of the capital. Trains to the airport ran with the same accuracy, electric trains and freight trains also kept up with their schedules.
Often worked in technological windows- when the roads were not busy. During these hours, the builders were moving the overpass forward, he specified. Petr Aksenov.
President of the contractor company Ilya Zyubin And Sergei Sobyanin launched the launch car traffic. Orange trucks were the first to cross the overpass, honking their horns for a long time. Passenger cars immediately drove behind them. The townspeople rejoiced at the launch of the new transport interchange- they opened the car windows, waved to the mayor, thanked him and the builders for the work done.
However, with the opening of the overpass, the creation transport hub doesn't end. As Sergei Sobyanin emphasized, the next task is to complete the reconstruction of the MKAD interchange with Lipetskaya Street and the construction of the South Road.
An overpass across the railway tracks of the Paveletsky direction, connecting the street. Elevatornaya and st. Podolsk Cadets will open in the summer of 2017. This was announced by the first deputy head of the Moscow construction department, Pyotr Aksenov.
"Today is the most main element This section is an overpass across the Paveletskaya railway. Today all preparatory work has been completed, starting next week the sliding of metal structures over the Paveletskaya railway will begin. It's like the crown of it all preparatory work, which had to be done in order for the overpass to be completed. According to all the possibilities that we have considered, somewhere in June-July we can open this section to the Warsaw highway. And already at the end of the year, by September - to the street. Red Lighthouse. Here is the overpass with the extension of the street. We will open the elevator with a connection to the Varshavskoe highway somewhere in June-July,” said P. Aksenov.
Earlier, Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin opened traffic on the direct overpass on the street. Lipetskaya at its intersection with the street. Elevator.
“In 2015, we began construction of a link between Warsaw Highway and st. Lipetskaya. This is very important object, which will connect the scattered East and West Biryulyovo and Chertanovo Central railways, broken today by the Paveletsky direction, and will improve traffic on the street. Lipetskaya. Today is the launch of the first stage - an overpass on the street. Lipetskaya, which will make it more comfortable to leave the Tsaritsyno microdistrict and Biryulyovo, and will also improve, of course, traffic along Lipetskaya itself, will remove the eternal traffic jam here,” said S. Sobyanin.
It is assumed that the opening of the overpass will eliminate the traffic light intersection at the intersection with the street. Elevator. Along the overpass, side passages with a length of 1.4 km will be built, which will provide access to the street. Lipetskaya from st. Elevatornaya and st. 6th Radial.
In addition, the project provides for the reconstruction of a section of the street. Elevatornaya with a length of 600 m from the street. Lipetskaya to the intersection with the street. Biryulevskaya, area st. Lipetskaya with a length of 300 m from the street. Pedagogical to st. 6th Radial; construction of an underground pedestrian crossing across the street. Elevator. In total, as part of the first stage of work, 2.9 km of roads will be built and reconstructed.
As part of the second stage of work, it is planned to build a new city highway, st. Elevatornaya - st. Podolskikh Kursantov - st. Red Mayak, which will connect the street. Lipetskaya with Varshavskoe highway. The key structure will be an overpass across the railway tracks of the Paveletsky direction, 787 m long with six lanes, connecting the street. Elevatornaya and st. Podolsk Cadets. In total, over 8 km of roads will be built. The second stage of work is planned to be completed in 2017.
