Construction of a bridge across the Kerch Strait in the Crimea, which will connect the Crimean Peninsula with mainland Russia, is more than half completed, the head of Taman road agency, Roman Novikov, said, Construction.ru reports.
“Construction has stepped over its equator. Almost 55% of the total volume of works is performed,” Novikov said.
Construction is underway in two areas: a road and railway one. By the end of June, 81% of piles have been driven, 56% of pillars installed and 27% of superstructures assembled.
