Warm winter didn't impede Northern delivery in Krasnoyarsk Region
In the Krasnoyarsk region, initial results show progress in the annual major events aimed at delivering essential goods to the Northern territories. Despite a warmer-than-usual winter delaying harvests, plans for Northern deliveries will still be executed.
Discussions about deliveries along temporary roads during the past winter season were had at an operational meeting led by vice-governor Valery Semenov.
Over the entire winter, approximately 27,500 tons of fuel were delivered to the North. Deliveries continue and will likely last until early April, when even high-latitude areas begin to see melting snow.
Goods are being delivered to the Evenk, Severo-Yeniseysk, Yeniseysk, and Khe prevention districts of the region.
"Despite anomalous warm weather causing winter roads to be deployed later than usual, delivery speeds have actually increased, with 80% of the planned volume being delivered before the end of winter. Remaining goods will be delivered in full by closing down the winter roads", - stated Anton Narchuganov, head of the agency for the development of northern territories and support of indigenous minority peoples in the Krasnoyarsk region.
With the arrival of spring, Northern delivery will continue via waterways: river navigators are already preparing for navigation; they are finalizing delivery contracts and carrying out ship maintenance. Approximately 190,000 tons of fuel, energy resources, GSM, and products will be delivered via the Yenisey and its tributaries by 2025.

With unpredictable weather conditions potentially impacting logistics and goods delivery, anomalous warm weather could lead to better access to certain regions by reducing ice and snow barriers, facilitating increased delivery activities.
- Amidst the anomalous warm weather, there is a possibility for increased access to the Northern territories due to reduced ice and snow barriers, potentially enhancing delivery activities, especially in environmental science, such as climate-change studies.
- As the financing for the delivery of approximately 190,000 tons of fuel, energy resources, GSM, and products via the Yenisey and its tributaries by 2025 is secured, the role of the industry in supporting these operations becomes increasingly significant.
- In the realm of science and environmental-science, the implications of climate-change on delivery activities during the past winter season can provide valuable data for future planning, with the increasing delivery speeds and higher volumes a topic of interest for industry professionals and finance experts alike.
