Various options are being considered to speed up traffic flow across the Dnipro River in Zaporizhzhia, including changing traffic algorithms, introducing one-way traffic, and increasing the capacity of bridge crossings.

Two lanes are currently open at the DniproHES dam in Zaporizhzhia, where cars are allowed to travel at a limited speed. The city authorities are holding consultations  with the patrol police to completely change the algorithm of traffic across the bridge crossings in the city to speed up the passage across the Dnipro River. The head of Zaporizhzhia Regional State Administration Ivan Fedorov said this during a telethon, UNN reports.

Details

A headquarters has been operating at the DniproHES dam since Friday to organize traffic and restore traffic through the dam.

The connection between the two banks is extremely important for Zaporizhzhia residents. The city has three arteries that connect the two banks of the city of Zaporizhzhia. It is extremely important for them to restore traffic through the dam. Thanks to utility companies, industrial enterprises, and the State Emergency Service, we managed to restore partial traffic across the dam at about 11 p.m. on Friday

- Fedorov said.

He noted that partial traffic across the dam was organized for two days, and today consultations have been held with the patrol police to completely change the algorithm of traffic across the Dnipro bridge crossings in Zaporizhzhia to simplify and improve traffic intensity.

Introduce one-way reverse traffic in some places, introduce restrictions in others, and increase the throughput capacity today until the end of the day

- Fedorov added.

Recall

On Friday, russian troops launchedat least 20 missile strikes on Zaporizhzhia, damaging and destroying the city's infrastructure, including the Dnipro hydroelectric power plant, and one person was killed in the shelling of the Dnipro hydroelectric power plant.
