Roll out the track. The Ministry of Transport creates a register of the best technologies for road repair

Road repairs will become more qualitative. Regional authorities and contractors will have access to the best technologies, materials and technological solutions for reuse in road repairs. Their list within the framework of the national project "Safe and high-quality roads" was prepared by the Ministry of Transport. As told to "RG" in the department, an information system has already been created where the register will be placed. ROSDORNII became its operator.

The institute "RG" explained that now the resource is being filled. This is a description of the technologies themselves, manufacturers and suppliers of materials, and the necessary equipment. More than 300 titles have already been submitted. After checking the data, access to the technologies will be open to everyone, but the main users will be the regions.

The list will be updated. As the deputy head of the Department of Road Construction Materials of MADI Eduard Kotlyarsky notes, in Russia there is a choice of modern materials that, subject to technology, can increase the strength of the road surface. For example, as reported in Rusnano, a technology for the production of asphalt concrete with graphene nanotubes has been developed. The coating has already been tested on a section of the federal highway M-4 "Don", and it turned out to be 67% more resistant to the formation of ruts and cracks.

New technologies are in demand. After the preparation of the list in 2019, the regions began to use them in 45% of cases, although the national project set the target at 10%, the Ministry of Transport stressed.
