Domodedovo airport to get new approach roads

According to PKU Tsentravtomagistral, some 20 km of roads to Domededovo in Russia are to be built at a cost of US$264 million. The project includes four interchanges and nine above-ground pedestrian crossings. The construction period is five years. The airport entrance reconstruction project also stipulates expansion of the road from two lanes in each direction to three. It also involves the removal of intersections with pedestrian crossings and reconstruction of interchanges and overpasses.

    David Crawford welcomes low-cost safety initiatives for pedestrians in America. Some 10 people die each week in accidents on crosswalks in the US, that’s more than 10% of all pedestrian fatalities in road traffic incidents - the number of which is running at a five-year high. Ensuring crosswalks are safe is key in supporting the growing enthusiasm for walking as a travel mode.
