Moscow - is one of the largest and most famous highways in the world.She has a long history during which the reconstruction and improvement of the project.Moscow Ring Road is situated on the territory of Moscow and its environs.Even now it is improving traffic intersections for the convenience of motorists who do minimal congestion and increase bandwidth.What is the length of the Ring Road?
History
length of the Ring Road and its components are constantly changing.This is due to an increase in total flow of traffic.The history of this highway leads since 1937.At this time, it started designing a new road in the area of Moscow.A year later began its construction, but it was suspended because of the war.Instead, a new project has been developed another plan and the road paved for existing.This work took only one month.The length of the Ring Road during this period was not very big.After the war, there was a problem of expansion of the road, as well as its reconstruction.Pavement by this time fallen into disrepair, making it difficult to move.In addition, increased traffic flow and that required the expansion of the road.
modern highway
first renovation took place in the period from 1957 to 1962.So there was a road that exists in our time.The length of the Ring Road was 109 kilometers.It received its name because of the unusual configuration.Road covered the territory of Moscow or most of the ring as an smooth oval.MKAD had four lanes in each direction.In the 60s, this capacity (36 thousand cars a day) was sufficient.However, with the development of mechanical engineering stream of cars has increased.Moscow demanded another reconstruction.However, it was postponed because of high material costs.
new highway
problem brewing expansion route every year.It has increased the accident rate several times.The lighting was poor, and high workload.Land crossings become unsafe, leading to loss of life.The restructuring began in 1994.As a result the number of bands has increased to five in each direction.Across the road lampposts were installed, covering it well.Instead of ground pedestrian crossings were equipped underground.Also, to increase capacity and exclusion plugs were designed and constructed multi-level interchanges.
Modern problems
length of the Ring Road in Moscow and its capacity is now again is inadequate.The stream of cars constantly increasing, so it can not cope with this task - to ensure the smooth passage of transport.There is a new problem of reconstruction and construction of conventions and interchanges.In 2008, we began construction of a new fourth ring road.However, by 2011 it was suspended due to the need for major investments.We have solved the issue of the continuation of the reconstruction.The length of the Ring Road may increase, but the solution to the problem will become more convenient way to high bandwidth.
