Recall
In 2023, the Ministry of Reconstruction began inspecting the condition of bridge structures, and the work of the specialized commission started in the capital, in particular, the E. Paton Bridge and the Metro Bridge, where significant damage was recorded.
In the same year, the head of the Kyiv City Council's Standing Committee on Budget, Socio-Economic Development and Investment Activity, Andriy Vitrenko, stated that the Metro Bridge in Kyiv, which connects the left and right banks of the Dnipro River, was in a state of disrepair. In this regard, there is a risk of partial closure of the "red line" of the subway.
