Reconstruction of the M3 Minsk-Vitebsk highway is underway in Minsk Oblast, Belta reports with reference to the press service of the Ministry of Transport and Communications.

"The fourth stage of reconstruction of the M3 Minsk-Vitebsk highway (from 56 km to 64 km) is being implemented, including bypassing the urban village of Pleschenitsy. Construction is being carried out on an 8 km section located in Logoisk region of Minsk Oblast. The work is carried out in accordance with the instructions of the head of state from July 12, 2017 and are carried out by the general contractor OJSC "SMT No. 8", - said the press service.

As noted in the Ministry of Transport, M3 will become a four-lane highway and will meet the standards of the first technical category. As for materials, heavy concrete with a thickness of 24 cm is used to create a new roadbed. Two bridges over the Dvinos and Derazhnya rivers will also be reconstructed.

Repair work on the site will have a beneficial effect on the development of social life of the population. Along the M3 road there will be areas for recreation and trade, equipped with a special shed. The project will modernize about 80 km.

The M3 highway is one of the key transport arteries of the country connecting the capital with the regional center in Vitebsk; it is along this road that freight flows to Latvia and St. Petersburg move.
