In the investment program of the city of Minsk for 2018, the object "A section of a bicycle path in Victory Park near Orlovskaya Street (including design work)" was discovered. Experts of the Minsk Cycling Society turned to the construction customer for clarifications.
“It will be a short piece that connects the sidewalk on Orlovskaya Street with the“ veloban ”from the side of the exhibition center,” said the Capital Construction Department of the Minsk City Executive Committee, which is the customer. - The path will be completed in 2018 when the weather is suitable for earthworks.
Note that in this place cyclists have long "dashed off" the path, which from time to time they unsuccessfully try to barricade with stones, so the construction of the link here will be just in place:
- Of course, the fact that the design of the bike path along the Svisloch in this place, like on most other bridges across the river, did not provide for a connection between the street and the bike path is at least strange, - thinks the thematic expert of the Minsk Cycling Society Yevgeny Khoruzhy. - After all, people move along different routes. And it is natural that cyclists who need to turn off Orlovskaya onto the embankment, or, conversely, go up the slope, drove along the slope despite the absence of an "official" path. I hope that in the near future such "bundles" will appear in all other problem areas.
