Primorye Minister of Civil Defense Alexander Zlatkin during a meeting of the Committee on Emergency Situations, which was held in the village of Olga under the leadership of the governor of the region Oleg Kozhemyako, said that you can enter all towns now. The next step in the mitigation process is to widen existing driveways to allow vehicles to travel in two lanes.
“There is a lot of snow, strong winds, and crossroads will form. And in order to quickly remove them, you need to keep heavy equipment in constant readiness. It is most optimal to arrange such points in the area of the bridge over Avvakumovka, on the way to Shcherbakovka and on the Olga pass area – Kavalerovo” – said Alexander Zlatkin.
The head of the region supported this proposal. In addition, he drew the attention of the heads of relevant municipalities and departments to the need to solve the problem of organizing work on holidays. Even, to strengthen emergency teams, verify equipment and stocks of consumables, spare parts.
Remember that the snow cyclone hit Primorye on December 21 and devastated the region for three days. In some places, the amount of precipitation it brought exceeded the six-month norms. Transportation connections and electricity were disrupted. The influence of bad weather was especially strong in the northeast of the region.
