Krykliy: 24,000 km of roads to be repaired in Ukraine within next five years

Infrastructure Minister Vladyslav Krykliy stated this at a working meeting in Mykolaiv on October 2, an Ukrinform correspondent reported.

"Within the next five years, we have to build and repair 24,000 kilometers of roads in Ukraine. This is a very ambitious project. It is much bigger than it was before. Although apart from major construction, there will be also current and average repairs," said Krykliy.

In addition, according to him, there will be comprehensive changes in the State Agency of Automobile Roads (Ukravtodor) and the State Service for Transport Security (Ukrtransbezpeka). Law enforcement officers are being actively working in this direction.

Also, more international financial institutions will be involved in the work on reforming the road sector, Krykliy said.
