The construction of a reversal tunnel on Kaluzhskoye Highway is nearing completion.

Q What will the center of Moscow be like in a few years?

Who can answer this question? I think it will look something like this.


No, I don't suffer from geographical or topographic cretinism. If you look carefully at the map of Moscow, then taking into account its New part, the city center is now where Kommunarka and Vatutinki are.

How are we going to go there, since the Kaluga highway may not be able to withstand the “in large numbers”? This known issue, which is already being resolved quite successfully, because now it is the central “street”. Kaluga will be expanded, new interchanges, bridges and tunnels will be built.

Today, for example, a new overpass was opened.

With dedicated lane for public transport.

According to tradition, traffic was opened by those who built this overpass.

And then the motorists rushed off with joyful horns. Thanks to this overpass, Kaluga's traffic capacity will increase by a quarter.

And not only this place with access to Kommunarka and Gas Pipeline has become more convenient for driving. The reconstruction of two overpasses near IKEA Teply Stan and the Slavyansky Mir shopping center has also been completed; an entry has also been made here from the region (I’ll say it the old fashioned way to make it clearer). Plus, they built an overground pedestrian crossing across the Kaluzhskoye Highway in the area of ​​house number 8A.

If we add here a new tunnel under the Kaluga Highway for turning to Dubrovka and a new overpass with a bridge in the area of ​​the village of Sosenki, then you can safely agree with my thesis - soon there will be a full-fledged “center” of Greater Moscow.

However, this is not all the news from TiNAO. In the village of New Vatutinki, in a couple of years, the largest multidisciplinary clinic in New Moscow will be built. It will be able to serve not only Vatutin residents, but also residents of nearby areas. There will be the most modern medical and diagnostic equipment, and doctors of all specialties will conduct consultations.

New Moscow districts are being brought up to other standards that are already familiar to us. This also applies to the “My Documents” centers. If until recently only mobile offices with a limited range of services operated here, now full-fledged branches have opened in Moskovsky and Troitsk, where you can receive 170 types of services and issue 280 types of documents. At the same time, the Trinity branch has become one of the largest in all of Moscow!

And the most interesting things await us ahead. Already developed very ambitious project- construction of the administrative and business center "Kommunarka". This will be an analogue of "Moscow City", it was its prototype that I placed in the first picture.

In addition to business offices and residential areas, there will be buildings of the Moscow Institute of Steel and Alloys, a branch of the Russian state library", kindergartens, schools, clinics, cultural centers. There are enough jobs for everyone!

In addition, in next year The prefecture of the TiNAO with all district departments of city services will finally move to the territory of the administrative and business center "Kommunarka": the tax, housing inspection, and the department of Moscow Architecture Committee. Construction is already actively underway.

FOOD City” will be ready in December, the Moscow Construction Complex portal reported this with reference to the head of the Moscow Construction Department Andrei Bochkarev.

According to him, in the tunnel at at the moment finishing work is underway. Thanks to the new tunnel, motorists will be able to make a U-turn when driving along a side passage from the center. The underground highway will also provide convenient access and egress from retail and office buildings along Kaluga Highway.

“In September, the reconstruction of the first section of the Kaluga Highway from the Moscow Ring Road to the turn to Kommunarka, 3.5 kilometers long, was completed. Six large artificial structures- tunnels and overpasses - and overpass. It is planned to fully complete the work of the first stage by the end of the year.", - said Andrey Bochkarev.

Let us remind you that earlier the portal of the Moscow Construction Complex reported that Moscow . They carried out finishing work, installation of metal frames for glazing and glazing of canopies over entrances and exits from passages. In total, the project of the 1st stage of reconstruction of the Kaluga Highway provides for the construction of 5 underground and 2 overground pedestrian crossings. In September, the construction of one overground pedestrian crossing was completed in the area of ​​the Mamyri settlement.

In addition, as part of the reconstruction of the Kaluga Highway, about 26 km of roads will be built in the section from 20 km to 29 km. There will be four tunnels, three bridges across the Sosenka River and four overpasses. The roadway will be expanded to 4-5 lanes in each direction.
For pedestrian safety, there are two bridges and five underground passages.

As Marat Khusnullin, Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Urban Development Policy and Construction, previously stated, the reconstruction of the Kaluga Highway is one of the most important transport construction projects in Moscow. “The expansion of the route, and in fact the construction of a new full-fledged road, will significantly improve the transport situation not only in New Moscow, but also in the entire southwestern direction.”- said M. Khusnullin.

Earlier, Deputy Mayor for Urban Development Policy and Construction Marat Khusnullin called the highway reconstruction one of the most important projects transport construction in Moscow. According to him, the opening of a new road here will significantly improve transport situation in TiNAO and throughout the southwestern direction.

About 26 kilometers of new road will be built on the section from the 20th to the 29th kilometer of the highway. . . . . .

By the end of December, a reversal tunnel will open on the Kaluzhskoye Highway, which runs near the Krasnopakhorskoye settlement.

According to the official website of the newspaper “New Districts”, finishing work has now begun on Kaluga Highway.

Builders have begun finishing work on the turning tunnel on Kaluzhskoe Highway in the area of ​​the shopping center “ Food City”, reports the press service of the construction department.

"The Construction Department together with the general contracting organization group of companies" ARKS” started finishing work on the turning tunnel along Kaluzhskoe Highway in the area of ​​the shopping center “ Food City”. . . . . .

It is clarified that the tunnel will ensure a reversal of traffic flows when moving along a side passage from the center, and will provide access to and egress from retail and office buildings on both sides of the Kaluga Highway.

. . . . . Six large artificial structures and one elevated pedestrian crossing were open to traffic. By the end of the year, it is planned to fully complete the work of the first stage,” the message quotes the words of the head of the construction department, Andrei Bochkarev.

The press service reminds that the project of the first stage of reconstruction of the Kaluga Highway provides for the expansion of the roadway to 4-5 lanes in each direction. It is necessary to build and reconstruct about 26 km of roads, including 8 km of the main route of the Kaluga Highway, almost 12 km of side roads, 4.5 km of exits transport interchanges. Also, as part of the project, three bridges will be built across the Sosenka River, total length 171.4 m, four overpasses with a total length of 606.95 m and four transport tunnels were built, with a total length of the covered part of 729.13 m. . . . . .


Today, after reconstruction, a section of the Kaluga Highway opened in New Moscow. Several kilometers can now be covered in a matter of minutes; previously, this could take drivers hours. Transport system The capital is changing rapidly. Eight of its most important facilities were opened in September alone.

New tunnel to New Moscow. Four lanes in each direction, plus side exits, dedicated lanes for public transport, and a three-hundred-meter overpass. And all this was built within two years.

Experienced drivers know that traffic jams are common here. Departure to the village of Sosenki. About four kilometers from the Moscow Ring Road. Further - Kommunarka, Troitsk with their tens of thousands of inhabitants. They were waiting for the opening of the tunnel here.

“This is a very joyful event, we were waiting for this discovery like manna from heaven,” say local residents.

There are several reasons for congestion on Kaluga Highway. These are traffic lights - only from ring road there are 15 of them to Troitsk. Traffic jams also arise due to residential development along the roadway. Nearby exits to shopping centers and MKAD. This also needs to be taken into account.

“Report how the work is going,” Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin began a conversation with the builders.

“We are carrying out one of the stages of launching a section of the Kaluga Highway. The launch complex includes a 900-meter-long tunnel, 13 kilometers of road, a pedestrian crossing, two overpasses and another turning tunnel bypassing the village of Sosenki,” said Dmitry Simarev, director of the construction company.

“How will you launch the interchange on the Moscow Ring Road?” - asked the mayor.

“At the Profsoyuznaya interchange on the Moscow Ring Road, we are on schedule for the month of April. They're going there now active work, since this is not included in our initial order,” clarified Valery Simarev.

“I understand, but people don’t care whether it is included in this order or not, they will go and run into the Moscow Ring Road. I think they would like to know when both Kaluzhka and the interchange on Profsoyuznaya will be launched. In April, that means carry out according to plan,” the mayor concluded.

Another nuance: the reconstruction practically did not affect residential buildings, which is also important during road construction. There was no need to carry out lengthy approvals or relocate people to other areas.

It's not the quantity that matters. Initially, it was planned to expand the Kaluga Highway to 10 lanes along its entire length. But, having assessed the possible scope of work, it was decided to change the project to include bypass roads. They will now go to the sides. The tunnel will take over the main flow of traffic.

How motorists had to literally jostle on bypass sections is clearly visible in the footage. The opening of the tunnel is only part of a large project for the reconstruction of the Kaluga Highway. There are four more tunnels, three bridges and three overpasses ahead.

“We are now launching 13 km of new roads at this sub-stage. If in single-lane terms it is 60 km. That is, 13 km is the width of the entire road, and 60 is single-lane traffic. You can imagine how much new roads will be accumulated in this pocket,” says Igor Shpilkovsky, construction director of the contractor company.

New transport hubs and complex in engineering terms road junctions Since the beginning of autumn, they have been opening in Moscow almost every day. South of Moscow - in addition to the tunnel on Kaluga Highway, new overpass appeared at the intersection of Lipetskaya and Elevatornaya streets. In the north of the capital, several large objects were commissioned at once: an interchange tunnel in Zelenograd and an overpass on the Volokolamsk highway, as well as a two-level tunnel that connected Skolkovskoe and Dmitrovskoe highway. In the west there is already a continuation of the chord - an overpass at the intersection of Ryabinovaya and General Dorokhov streets. East direction- a new overpass in the Volzhsky Boulevard area.

As for passenger transport. A project that, in fact, connected all directions and should relieve the congestion of the center - Moscow central ring. High-speed railway "Swallows" have already transported more than a million passengers in five days. By the way, until October 10, travel on the MCC will be free.

Kaluga Highway quite recently was a road with two lanes in each direction. After new territories were annexed to the capital, an urgent need arose to reconstruct this route. I often had to visit Troitsk and stand in an endless traffic jam to Teply Stan (record - 2.5 hours in a minibus). After a comprehensive reconstruction, it will be a 4-5 lane highway with dedicated lanes for public transport, tunnels, overpasses and bridges, and travel time to Troitsk will be reduced to 20 minutes.

1. Before the start of reconstruction, the highway did not meet the safety and comfort requirements. Reconstruction of the highway section from 20 to 49 km began in November 2014. The interchange between the Moscow Ring Road and Profsoyuznaya Street was also reconstructed: .

The technical customer is UKS IKS and D LLC, the general contractor is IFSK ARKS LLC, the general designer is Mosinzhproekt JSC.

2. As of today, the entire interchange is ready. It remains to open a full-fledged congress with outside MKAD to Kaluzhka. Currently working on final stage. Also, the turning tunnel in the area of ​​the village of Mamyri has not yet been opened (for turning around from the side of traffic from the Khovanskoye cemetery to Moscow).

3. Interchange with the Gazoprovod village, view towards the center.

Historical information:

Old Kaluga road ( Kaluga tract) - ancient way, connecting Moscow with Kaluga. Known since the 14th century. Despite the name, the modern Kaluga Highway does not lead to Kaluga, but to Belarus, crossing the Kiev Highway in the Obninsk area, which goes to Kaluga and Kyiv. This is due to the fact that in the village of Kresty, the Kaluga road intersected with the old Warsaw road, coming from Podolsk from the Crimean Highway (which is why it is called Warsaw highway), To western borders Russia.

After laying north of Krestov railway and increasing the role Kyiv highway The section of the Kaluga highway from Krestov to Kaluga fell into disrepair and currently does not exist. The section of the Warsaw road from Podolsk to Kresty has also lost its role and is currently a local highway. Therefore, the current A-130 highway includes a section of the Kaluga Highway along Moscow from the center to Kresty and a section of the Warsaw Road from Kresty to the border with Belarus.

4. Tunnel turnaround in front of the Gas pipeline village for transport from the region. View towards Moscow.

Renderings of this site.

5. The same tunnel turn, view towards the area. Further on you can see the overpass at the intersection of the Kaluga Highway with the future Solntsevo - Butovo - Vidnoye highway. On the right is a cloned anthill - the Dubrovka residential complex.

6. Kaluga highway and auto-metro tunnel of the route under construction from Solntsevo to Vidnoye. This will be a full-fledged understudy southern section MKAD, which will connect four highways at once (Borovskoye, Kievka, Kaluzhka and Varshavka). The Sokolnicheskaya metro line will also pass here, which after Salaryevo will reach the surface and reach Kommunarka.

7. By new road New Moscow motorists will be able to get from one outbound highway to another without leaving the Moscow Ring Road. This should significantly relieve congestion on the roads approaching the ring road. I’m thinking of going to this 10-kilometer section during the January holidays and exploring everything.

8. A small junction of the Kaluga Highway bypassing the village of Sosenki. Previously, the Kaluga Highway passed through this village, but now transit transport (which is 99.9%) was detoured along a new three-kilometer section.

9. The tunnel connects the backup of the “new” Kaluzhka with the existing “old” Kaluga Highway.

10. View of the area. The Voskresensk Highway overpass at the intersection with the Kaluzhskoe Highway backup. This road will connect the villages of Voskresenskoye and Moskovsky. Now on maps these roads are called Projected Drives 7031 and 7032.

11. An overpass that will connect the Kaluga alternate from the region with the existing Kaluga Highway at the entrance to the village of Sosenki.

This is what this area looked like in the renderings.

13. Another ground crossing across a traffic-free route.

14. Overpass near the Rakitki gardening association.

15. U-turn overpass in front of Desna. Construction is underway on both banks of the river wastewater treatment plants for surface wastewater treatment. A total of four wastewater treatment plants will be built from the Moscow Ring Road to Betonka.

16. New bridge through Desna.

17. Another wastewater treatment plant. They will take it all waste water from the highway, clear it and (probably) dump it into the Desna.

18. Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V = multi-apartment low-rise residential buildings of the New Vatutinki residential complex.

19. Boiler room, “New Vatutinki” and a view towards Moscow.

20. No traffic lights Novovatutinskaya overpass and backups of the Kaluga highway.

23. “Old” Kaluga highway, the village of Vatutinki and the bypass under construction.

24. Villages of townhouses are growing like mushrooms after rain. The annexation of new territories to Moscow is one of the directions for implementing the concept of polycentric development of the capital. It is here that it is planned to create new points of attraction away from the overloaded center.

25. On the bypass under construction, the most complex work- construction of two overpasses. There's just a little bit left to do.

26. So very soon it will be possible to rush from the Moscow Ring Road to Troitsk with the breeze. And later, all the way to Betonka, at the intersection with which, instead of the old circle, a full-fledged interchange will be built. According to forecasts, the capacity of the Kaluga Highway will increase by 2.5 times.

Such things...
