He noted that the first stage of the restoration of traffic - by June 23 - will not provide the opportunity to carry out transportation completely.
“This will be the next stage that we planned for ourselves in early October - to turn in and resume traffic on the new bridge, and then traffic will be completely restored,” RIA Novosti quoted Belozyorov as saying.
Earlier it became known that the railway emergency bridge near Murmansk, on which repair work was carried out since May 30 due to the washing of structures, collapsed. A criminal case was opened on this fact. Railway communication with the city was interrupted.
Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu instructed to transfer personnel and special equipment of the railway troops to help restore railway traffic in the Kola district of the Murmansk region.
