Reconstruction of highway M 8 Kholmogory. Road works program

Work on expanding the Yaroslavl highway is nearing completion. After completion of the work, the travel time from the Moscow Ring Road to the Zhukovka cottage village will be 18-20 minutes. Below you can see all the changes being made during the highway expansion.

Expansion of the Yaroslavl Highway in the section from Korolev to Pushkino, including the Tarasovka bypass.

In accordance with the Federal Target Program "Modernization transport system Russia", the Moscow branch of JSC "Institute "Stroyproekt" is developing design documentation for the reconstruction of the M-8 "Kholmogory" highway - from Moscow through Yaroslavl, Vologda to Arkhangelsk on the section MKAD - Pushkino km 16 - km 47 in the Moscow region.

Start-up complex No. 2, km 22+100 – 29+500 (bypassing the village of Tarasovka) and Start-up complex No. 3, km 16 – km 20. The reconstruction project provides for:

Organization of 10-lane traffic (5 lanes in each direction) From the Korolevsky overpass (exit from Pionerskaya street to Yaroslavka) and to the overpass through railway Moscow - Monino, with the addition of transitional express lanes. Three lanes will be added in each direction to the overpass above the railway, which was commissioned in 1976. On the next section - from the overpass to the Akulovsky Vodokanal and beyond - 10-lane traffic will again be organized with side exits from the streets Severnaya, Shkolnaya, Institutskaya (Korolev). A two-level interchange will be built in the area where Bolshevskoye Highway exits the highway. Bolshevskoye Highway in this area will be expanded to four lanes.
From the Akulovsky water canal, the Kholmogory mainline will go through empty fields, bypassing the village of Tarasovsky from the south (it will branch from the current Yaroslavka to the right, when viewed from the center, and merge with it again after 3 km. The length of the narrow section is only about 1.5 km , but the bypass will begin earlier: already 500 meters behind the “Chelyuskinsky” stencil, almost immediately after the Akulovsky water canal) and already after it it will connect with the existing Yaroslavl highway. At the same time, the highway will cross the Klyazma River three times in the area of ​​unfinished bridges. Once they began to be built for the new location of this road, but due to financial problems, construction was suspended. Now the bridges will be completed, and the road will be opened on them. An interchange will also be organized near the exit to the highway from Korolev from Tarasovskaya Street in the Tekstilshchik microdistrict. The currently existing elevated pedestrian crossings (in the area of ​​Severnaya Street and the village of Chelyuskinsky) will remain in place, the highway will pass under them. The designer envisages the presence of special screens along the highway that protect the area adjacent to the road from acoustic and other impacts from traffic flow.

Conditional diagram of the expansion (reconstruction) of the Yaroslavl highway. (see detailed diagram below)

From the 16th to the 20th kilometer, that is, from the Moscow Ring Road to the expansion in front of the Mytishchi interchange, the Yaroslavl highway will be expanded from 3 to 5 lanes in each direction. Moreover, on both sides there will be 2-lane backups for turns - a total of 7 rows in each direction! A noticeable element of this site will be new junction. For those who are coming from Moscow and want to turn left in Mytishchi onto Frunze Street, a “petal” will be built 2.5 km from the Moscow Ring Road on Yaroslavka - almost the same as at the turn to Olimpiysky Prospekt two kilometers further down the road ( subsequently - already outside the framework of the reconstruction of Yaroslavka - Frunze Street will be continued with a new overpass over the railway, and from here it will be possible to get straight to the very center of Mytishchi - to Mira Street) The second reconstructed section begins almost immediately after the new Korolevskaya interchange with an overpass over Moninskaya railway line. It will be expanded from 3 to 5 lanes (and essentially a new overpass will be built in place of the old one).



Scheme of reconstruction of the Yaroslavl highway in the section from Korolev to Pushkino.

Yaroslavskoye Highway in the region and within Moscow) is considered completed. During the modernization, the number of lanes was increased, side passages were equipped to differentiate the local traffic flow from the transit one, stops public transport, several transit overpasses have been built. The reconstruction of the Yaroslavl highway in the region (2014), the modernization scheme of which is shown below, made it possible to relieve traffic flow and create comfortable conditions for public transport.

Reasons for reconstruction

Before the start of modernization in the region, the main forming highway Yaroslavl district handled about fifty to sixty thousand cars per day. And this despite the fact that 700 kilometers from the Moscow Ring Road the highway narrowed to three lanes, and at the twenty-eighth kilometer, in Tarasovka, to two. The level of congestion on the highway, according to the Yandex.Traffic service, during the summer season (even at night) rarely fell below seven points.

The government intended to solve the problem of traffic jams more thoroughly. The reconstruction of the Yaroslavl highway in the region in 2014 (the scheme included the modernization of several sections) made it possible to effectively relieve traffic flow. The governor of the Moscow region said that after completion of the work, the throughput of the Yaroslavl highway will be about two hundred thousand cars per day, that is, it will increase four times.

In addition, in some sections of the route there were no braking lanes. Yaroslavka was poorly adapted to the movement of public transport, which, moving in the main stream of cars, made it difficult for other participants to maneuver traffic and created interference. The completion brought one of the main Moscow highways into proper shape.

Purpose of modernization

The complex of urban planning policy and construction of the city of Moscow considers the goal of the Yaroslavskoye Highway reconstruction project to be to reduce traffic congestion on the road and create conditions that are comfortable for public transport. Yaroslavl Highway should become more modern and convenient for both drivers and pedestrians.

Time frame for modernization

Plans for the next modernization of the highway became known back in 2014. At that time, reconstruction of the Yaroslavl Highway was already underway in some areas (2014). The scheme presented to the public provided for the expansion of the route and the construction of facilities, including outside the Moscow Ring Road.

When will the reconstruction of the Yaroslavl highway be completed? Modernization of a section of the highway in Moscow (from MKAD to Garden Ring) ended back in 2013. The Moscow region sections of the Yaroslavl highway were put into operation in October-November 2015 (from the sixteenth to the twentieth and from the twenty-second to the twenty-seventh kilometers) and at the end of 2016. The completion dates for the reconstruction of the Yaroslavskoye Highway coincided with the planned ones.

Reconstruction areas

On at the moment three sections of Yaroslavka were reconstructed: one within the Moscow ring road and two in the region. Full-scale work was carried out from the ring road to Mytishchi, further to the city of Pushkino and bypassing Tarasovka - the Yaroslavl highway was already modernized there. The reconstruction (the timing of which has not yet been specified) from the city of Pushkino to the Small Ring is at the design stage.

Reconstruction results

As a result of the modernization of the road, the capacity of the route has increased and the conditions for public transport have been improved (Yaroslavskoye Highway). The reconstruction, the deadlines of which were met according to the project documentation, was completed with the following results:

  • side passages were built from the even and odd sides of the Yaroslavskoe highway to Malyginsky passage;
  • the pedestrian crossing in the area of ​​the one hundred and thirteenth building on Yaroslavskoye Highway has been increased by the length of the side passages;
  • an overpass was erected at the intersection with Malyginsky Passage;
  • Side passages were built from the Severyaninsky overpass to Malyginsky Proezd;
  • a noise barrier was installed opposite Sergeantskaya and Palekhskaya streets;
  • a transit overpass was built along the street Vershny Vody;
  • before the exit to Yeniseiskaya and Letchika Babushkin streets, the braking lane has been extended and the width of the exit has been increased;
  • there is an underground pedestrian crossing near house two hundred and eleven on Mira Avenue;
  • driveways have been constructed at the intersection with Selskokhozyaystvennaya Street;
  • from the ninety-first to the ninety-seventh houses on Mira Avenue there is a three-lane driveway.

Construction objects

The list of objects erected during the modernization of Yaroslavl Highway includes:

  • pedestrian crossings (three crossings within the Moscow Ring Road have been reconstructed);
  • transit overpasses (in the area of ​​Veshniye Vody Street and at the intersection of Yaroslavka and Malyginsky Proezd);
  • and side passages.

Reconstruction in numbers

It was planned that the reconstruction of the Yaroslavl highway as a whole would cost the government eight billion rubles. The cost of implementing the project within the Moscow Ring Road (7.5-kilometer section to the Garden Ring) amounted to almost five hundred million rubles.

Problems of the new Yaroslavka

The reconstruction of the Yaroslavl highway in the region (2014) brought a lot of difficulties. The scheme presents the project in a rather favorable way: there are pedestrian crossings, a separate lane for public transport and side “pockets” that allow pedestrians waiting for transport to be away from the flow of traffic, which is much safer than if buses stopped directly on the road. But the construction and subsequent commissioning of the modernized sections revealed several problems of the new Yaroslavka.

Firstly, during the construction or reconstruction of construction projects (overpasses, side drives, pedestrian crossings), concrete blocks were laid along the road surface, which became the cause of emergency situations. The most serious situation in this regard developed in the area from Mytishchi to the village of Tarasovka, where several interchanges were being built.

The inconveniences were the forced narrowing of the route for the period of construction work, as well as a change in the trajectory of the road. Thus, the Yaroslavl highway (the reconstruction, the completion date of which many drivers were waiting for, only worsened the traffic situation) has become a rather dangerous section.

Secondly, after the reconstruction was completed, the following inconveniences for pedestrians were discovered:

  1. The road became without traffic lights. Of course, they were built to replace ground ones, but using them, as you know, is quite difficult for people with limited mobility.
  2. The stops are located quite far from the underground passages. To maintain objectivity, it is worth noting that the problem is not relevant for all public transport stops on Yaroslavskoye Highway.

Drivers, more than half of whom are dissatisfied with the reconstruction, note that after the work, traffic jams not only remained, but also became uneven and concentrated in several bottlenecks new route. However, the reconstruction of the Yaroslavl highway in the region (2014), the diagram of which is presented in the article, is planned further, so perhaps the problems will be eliminated over time.

Yaroslavl highway in the Moscow region: how to open a bottleneck after reconstruction March 18th, 2014

The importance of the M-8 “Kholmogory” highway (popularly “Yaroslavskoye Highway”) can hardly be overestimated. First of all, the route serves large agglomeration in the Moscow region - Mytishchi, Korolev, Yubileiny, Ivanteevka, Pushkino, Shchelkovo and several dozen more towns, villages and villages, total number inhabitants are about 1 million people! Moreover: by goes on the track powerful transit flow to the northeast. Moreover, the neighboring highways (Dmitrovskoe and Gorkovskoe highway) are located at a considerable distance and in no way can serve as “understudies” of Yaroslavka.

It is not surprising that the Kholmogory highway in the Moscow region is overloaded and has long been in need of reconstruction. And this reconstruction began in 2013. Construction work are already underway in sections 16-20 and 22-29 km.

Map of the section 16-20 km (from MKAD to Korolev), clickable, 8 MB

Scheme of the section 22-29 km (from Korolev to Klyazma), clickable, 12 MB

Problem: main bottlenecks will remain
Unfortunately, the effect of this stage of reconstruction will be very limited. The fact is that the expanding 6-lane section without traffic lights ends in the Klyazma area, and the main junctions and exits from the highway are located after Klyazma, where there are still 2 lanes and a pedestrian traffic light!


"Bottlenecks" persist both in Moscow and in the region. Neck towards Moscow will be relatively short (but no less difficult): about 1 km from the confluence of the Staro Yaroslavl highway and the current M-8 highway to Klyazma.

Neck towards the area will be much more pronounced, because The main junctions and exits will be 1-5 km after the narrowing of the highway. Let's list them: Central Passage and Ivanteevskoe Highway (flow to Ivanteevka and Fryazino); Staroyaroslavskoe Highway (entrance from Pushkino and further along Eldiginskoe Highway to A-107 to the west); Krasnoarmeyskoye Highway (entrance to Krasnoarmeysk and exit to A-107 to the east).

The thickness of the lines corresponds to the width of the road after the reconstruction

According to our estimate, the number of those who need to move further into the region after the reconstructed area is different times 50-70% of traffic on the M-8 highway. If measures are not taken, the completed stage of reconstruction will seem to them an expensive way to move the cork, which almost did not reduce its length and duration.

It will be easier to get to Mytishchi, Korolev and Yubileiny. But due to the preserved bottleneck, this ease will further play a cruel joke, attracting extra transit to these cities. For example, in Korolev, the traffic situation may even worsen: transit traffic on Shchelkovo and Fryazino will not be able to quickly reach Ivanteevskoye Highway and will continue to use Pionerskaya Street and Bolshevskoye Highway.

What are the authorities planning?
However, there is no point in making claims against the authorities of the Moscow region: the M-8 Kholmogory highway is federal, and Rosavtodor is reconstructing it. Apparently, the feds understand the need for a comprehensive reconstruction: in 2014, design work began for the reconstruction of the next section of the Yaroslavl Highway from 29 to 47 km. That is, from Klyazma to A-107, the “small concrete road”.

But design is a long process, the length of this section is 18 km, and money for its reconstruction until 2015 has not yet been included in the Federal Target Program. It turns out that even if you have money and political will It will not be possible to reconstruct this area before 2018. This means that if you don’t take action, in 2016-2018 on the newly reconstructed Yaroslavskoe highway, many kilometers of traffic jams are guaranteed.

What Probok.net offers
Let’s say right away: completely “resolve” the traffic jam in bottleneck It’s unlikely to work without reconstruction and expansion. But it can be significantly reduced: reduce the length and duration of the traffic jam by 1.5-2 times and increase the speed of passing problem areas by the same 1.5-2 times. Moreover, this can be achieved with measures costing several tens of millions of rubles, which is 2 orders of magnitude (100 times) cheaper than the reconstruction itself. As for the timing, if there is political will, all this can be done in the remaining 2 years, in time for the opening of the reconstructed site!

Solution 1: Re-partitioning
From the reconstruction border to the region, the route is about 11 meters wide in one direction. They are marked with 2 lanes and a wide strip under the curb. Before and after exits, an additional transitional express lane is marked in the “side” lane.

It’s easy to guess: after the reconstruction is completed, some vehicles will drive en masse along the side of the road, and some will be built into the 2 “permitted” lanes.

The solution suggests itself: in critical areas, cancel the “shoulder” lane by marking 3 lanes!

Scheme and boundaries of re-marking areas


What's interesting is the acceleration and deceleration lanes more partly it will be possible to save: as can be seen in the photographs, in the area of ​​​​interchanges the width of the roadway can easily accommodate the 4th lane.

Of course, such a traffic pattern will be temporary: after a full reconstruction, the roadsides should be restored.

Solution 2. Relocation of the fence on the bridge over the Ucha River
There is a section between the Ivanteevskaya and Pushkinskaya interchanges where a simple re-marking to make 3 lanes towards the region will not work. This is a 4-lane bridge over the Ucha River, where there is no wide lane on the right, but there is a central wide lane where a dividing fence is installed.

Solution: move the dividing fence on the bridge between the lighting supports. This will make it possible to obtain a roadway 11 meters wide and organize 3 lanes on the bridge for traffic towards the region (as in the sections before and after the bridge). Since this creates a slight bend in the roadway, it is necessary to limit the speed in this section to 50 km/h and install warning boards.

This solution is also temporary. With a full reconstruction of the site, 4-5 lanes of traffic in each direction will probably be organized with shoulders and the construction of a second bridge.

Solution 3. Construction of a pedestrian crossing
The traffic light pedestrian crossing at the confluence of M-8 and Staroyaroslavskoe Highway creates problems for traffic capacity even now, with the traffic limited by Tarasovka to 2 lanes. After the opening of a 5-6-lane traffic-light-free section from the Moscow Ring Road to km 29, this traffic light will become the main brake on traffic on both sides of the highway. This transition cannot be canceled: the Pushkino logistics park is located here, and if canceled, the length of the pedestrian path to it will increase by 2 kilometers.

The solution is obvious: Before opening the reconstructed section, make the transition underground or above ground. You can either immediately design and build a crossing taking into account the future passage of the route, or build a temporary pedestrian bridge from prefabricated structures.

What's next?
We sent this package of proposals to the head of the Main Directorate of Road Facilities of the Moscow Region, K. V. Lyashkevich. He promised to review the package and invite us to a discussion. I will definitely write when this happens and what the results will be.

When the long-awaited bypass of the village of Tarasovka opened on the M8 federal highway Kholmogory (Yaroslavskoye Highway) at the end of last year, many motorists breathed a sigh of relief. Driving on the highway has become much more comfortable.

Nevertheless, for almost the entire last summer season, the main problem area on the M8 road in the Moscow region remained the overpass along which Yaroslavka passes over the Moninskaya railway line. Finally, as planned, it was finished in the fall.

Alas, the traffic jam on Yaroslavka did not disappear after that, but only moved further into the region. Now it begins behind Tarasovka, and, as many summer residents well know, it usually stretches until the turn onto Krasnoarmeyskoye Highway. On the way back it is no easier: the flow to the center sometimes stops even before Pushkino. The FKU Tsentravtomagistral (this is the department of Rosavtodor, which services federal highways in the Moscow region, is the customer for the reconstruction of Yaroslavka in the region) spoke about how they will deal with this.

By 2024, there will be twice as many cars outside Tarasovka

The section of the M8 highway from 29 to 47 km, starting after the Tarasovka bypass, was built back in the 60-70s of the last century. True, it was partially reconstructed in the 80s: then the main transit flow switched to it, and the “old” Yaroslavka became part of street network city ​​of Pushkino. But now it can no longer cope with the load: in addition to four multi-level interchanges, traffic flows into Yaroslavka from many adjacent roads, and there is not enough capacity.

According to measurements made in 2013, the load on the site was 60-67 thousand cars per day. And in 2024, according to calculations, traffic intensity here will more than double - up to 140 thousand cars per day! It is clear that reconstruction is long overdue.

8 rows without traffic lights and ground crossings

The project provides for an increase in the number of lanes to eight (4 in each direction) along the entire length of the reconstructed section. It will start at the 29th km, behind the Tarasovka bypass, and end at the 47th, behind the junction with the concrete road (road A-107). The stripes are wide (3.75 m each). In addition, in places where local roads adjoin Yaroslavka, side passages will be installed, which will separate local traffic flows from transit ones.

But the point, of course, is not only the number of rows. Who among the summer residents does not remember the “famous” pedestrian crossing at the 33rd kilometer (behind the Ivanteevsky turn), which today “holds” the entire federal highway! The speed here is limited to 50 km/h, and traffic cameras are installed. From the point of view of pedestrian safety, these are very reasonable measures, but the traffic jam - almost constant - begins a kilometer and a half before the crossing. Reconstruction should also solve this problem:

“According to the project, traffic along the entire stretch should be without traffic lights, and instead of crossings at one level, elevated pedestrian crossings will be built,” reported the Tsentravtomagistral Federal Public Institution.

At first, the reconstruction of Yaroslavka on the section from the Tarasovka bypass to the A-107 “betonka” was planned for 2015-18, but due to the crisis it had to be postponed. Currently, the planned project implementation period is 2017-2020.
