Observation platforms in the form of amphitheaters will be created on the Alexander Nevsky Embankment near the Rossiya Hotel
In Veliky Novgorod, on the Alexander Nevsky Embankment near the Rossiya Hotel, reconstruction continues. The St. Petersburg company PO Vozrozhdenie works here. The contractor conducted research: the demolition of green spaces, the organization of sites, the dismantling of reinforced concrete structures, yesterday, August 4, at the press center of the city hall.
The progress of the work was assessed by the chairman of the Novgorod Committee for Architecture and Urban Planning Evgeny Zhilin.
“The implementation of reinforced concrete structures is planned for this year,” said Andrey Parshin, head of the contract at PA Vozrozhdenie. – Next year we will deal with networks and landscaping. One of the problems we faced was the water level. Compared to previous years, it is higher – our construction mark is below the water level by 60 people. I believe that by mid-August it will drop.
Yevgeny Zhilin noted that the contract includes two stages: construction and installation and design work.
“The contractor has been active since April,” he said. – All reinforced concrete structures were examined at this site, new reinforced concrete piles were delivered. We have started the second phase – the implementation of the project.
The section of the embankment on which the work is being carried out is zonally divided into two parts: the first part – with a retaining wall from the side of Yaroslav’s Courtyard, the second part – a sloping embankment, opposite the Rossiya Hotel. It definitely separates the promenade and the public area. The last one will have events.
The embankment reconstruction project provides for the construction of embankments built on the water, a ramp between the upper and lower levels of the embankment for people with limited mobility, sites in the form of amphitheatres, respectively, on the slope and at the high level of the embankment, an observation deck in the form of an amphitheater near Nikolskaya Street, a slope built of stone sketches, hard surface restoration, partial elevation of the area.
In addition, a bicycle path will be laid here, dendrological work will be carried out, landscaping, a children’s playground will be installed, a foundation will be built under a public toilet, bike racks, stands, pedestals, and benches in the theme of the embankment will be installed. It will not do without updating and laying communications.
The cost of work on this site is 317.15 million rubles. The contract was concluded between the municipal institutions “Center for the implementation of projects for a comfortable urban environment” and “PO Vozrozhdenie”. The completion date is November 1, 2023. The reconstruction is under the national project “Tourism and hospitality industry”.
