Probe of the Bridge in the "Red Bridge" Neighborhood of Mogochino District
The Mogocha bridge in Zabaykalsky Krai, Russia, is currently undergoing maintenance and repair work due to its age and the challenging environmental conditions of the region. This critical transportation link has been a focus of periodic repairs to ensure safety and functionality.
Recent reports have revealed that the bridge has been found to be in a state of disrepair, leading to an investigation and subsequent recommendations for a comprehensive inspection by the ministry. Based on the results of this inspection, a decision will be made about whether repairs or full reconstruction are necessary.
To address the issue of heavy traffic and potential damage, road signs limiting axle load to 10 tons have been placed on the bridge. To enforce this limit, police patrol units will be on duty. It's worth noting that the bridge remains accessible to light vehicles, emergency vehicles, and water supply equipment.
In addition, the Deputy Minister of Construction, Road Management, and Transport of the Zabaykalsky Krai, Sergei Krivoshchekov, has stated that the measures being taken should help reduce the load on the bridge. As part of these efforts, weigh-in-moisture frames and concrete blocks are being installed on the bridge.
The government of Zabaykalsky Krai announced this news on its official website, but residents of Mogocha have expressed concerns about heavy gold mining equipment passing over the bridge. Despite these concerns, Acting Mogocha Interregional Prosecutor Dmitry Shaydurov stated that no recent complaints have been received from local residents. However, it's important to note that similar complaints were received last year regarding the bridge's condition.
In an effort to further monitor the bridge, the municipality is considering installing cameras. The current court's decision regarding the bridge repair is being enforced, and an lawsuit filed against the administration of the then urban settlement of 'Mogocha' to repair the bridge has been satisfied.
For the most current and precise status of the Mogocha bridge, contacting the Zabaykalsky Krai regional administration or the local transportation department could provide official updates.
The Deputy Minister of Construction, Road Management, and Transport of the Zabaykalsky Krai, Sergei Krivoshchekov, mentioned that the installation of weigh-in-moisture frames and concrete blocks on the bridge could help reduce the load in the industry sector. To maintain the safety and functionality in the transportation sector, recent reports recommended a comprehensive inspection by the ministry for the Mogocha bridge.
