We are completing the modernization of two border crossing points on the border with Moldova: Lisne – Seici and Maloyaroslavets 1 – Ceadîr-Lunga.
Our company began upgrading Bessarabia’s border infrastructure back in 2021. Automagistral-Pivden carried out the major rehabilitation of an 18-kilometre section of the T-16-44 road connecting the settlement of Bessarabske with the Maloyaroslavets-1 border crossing point.
The modernization of the Ukrainian-Moldovan border crossing points itself started in 2024 in cooperation with international donors. During the first phase, road pavement was rehabilitated, road markings were applied, traffic signs were installed, and perimeter fencing and sanitary facilities were constructed.
This year, our company completed the second phase of the project, which included the installation of a canopy as well as modular facilities for staff work and rest. These improvements have created appropriate conditions for efficient border and customs control in line with modern requirements. External lighting systems, a new generator, pedestrian walkways, and emergency vehicle stopping devices have also been installed. Landscaping works have been completed, and the installation of air-conditioning units is currently being finalized.
At the same time, the full operation of the upgraded Lisne – Seici border crossing point will remain constrained without the rehabilitation of the access road T-16-44. This issue is currently being considered by the Recovery Service and regional authorities.
Перше робоче місце у найкращій компанії країни!
Провідні фахівці «Автомагістраль-Південь» провели серію тренінгів та лекцій у Барському коледжі (ВСП «Барський фаховий коледж транспорту та будівництва НТУ»).Мета заходів — допомогти студентам отримати перше робоче місце у нашій компанії, ознайомити їх із технологіями та технікою, які ми використовуємо, а також розповісти про вимоги до фахівців різних напрямів під час прийому на роботу.
Зокрема, студентам другого курсу спеціальностей «Будівництво та цивільна інженерія» (192) та «Геодезія та землеустрій» (193) презентували роботу геодезичної служби «Автомагістраль-Південь».
Фахівці розповіли про комплекс завдань, які виконують геодезисти, прилади, з якими працює служба, та програмне забезпечення для обробки даних.
«Робота геодезиста пов’язана не лише з використанням великої кількості приладів, що потребує навичок та досвіду. Геодезист має розуміти специфіку роботи будівельної техніки й організацію виробничого процесу. Студенти повинні це усвідомлювати», — зазначає керівник геодезичної служби компанії «Автомагістраль-Південь» Олександр Онищенко.
«Автомагістраль-Південь» не просто пропонує студентам перше робоче місце. Ми допомагаємо молодим фахівцям зі вступом до закладів вищої освіти, а також проводимо навчання на базі провідних світових виробників геодезичного обладнання. Але рухатися шляхом професійного зростання можна швидше, якщо вже під час навчання в коледжі розуміти вимоги компанії.
Ще один тренінг, але вже для студентів спеціальності «Галузеве машинобудування» (133), провели механіки компанії. Студентам продемонстрували особливості управління та технічного обслуговування сучасного асфальтоукладача Vögele Super 1600-2, оснащеного фірмовими системами Vögele, які автоматизують роботу та підвищують якість покриття.
Мистецтво сучасної інфраструктури: будівництво транспортної розв’язки у Віті-Поштовій відвідали студенти факультету транспортного будівництва Національного транспортного університету
«Підкова» у Віті-Поштовій на трасі М-05 — об’єкт унікальний.
Зазвичай в Україні для зведення прогонових будов використовуються збірні конструкції із застосуванням залізобетонних балок. Натомість естакада на одеській трасі під Києвом є повністю монолітною. Замість уже звичної для штучних споруд геометричної «прямолінійності» — лише заокруглені форми.Для зменшення товщини плити та підвищення довговічності конструкції використовується технологія пост-напруження.
Проєкт технологічно складний, але саме так виглядає сучасна дорожня інфраструктура. Таких «підков» в Україні лише чотири: дві у Стоянці на трасі М-06 Київ-Чоп та дві на трасі М-05 Київ-Одеса, але поки що добудовується лише одна — у Віті-Поштовій.
Тож не дивно, що представники Національного транспортного університету звернулися з пропозицією організувати до Віти-Поштової ознайомчу екскурсію для студентів факультету транспортного будівництва. Супроводжувала майбутніх дорожніх будівельників проректорка з наукової роботи Олена Славінська.
На ринку праці вже сьогодні відчувається дефіцит фахівців у сфері будівництва. І перспективи, на жаль, невтішні: кількість студентів будівельних спеціальностей скорочується. Як підвищити інтерес молодих людей до професії дорожнього будівельника? Один зі шляхів — перехід на дуальну освіту, коли студент поєднує теоретичні заняття з практичною роботою на реальному підприємстві, значно швидше інтегруючись у професію.
Домовилися попрацювати у цьому напрямі спільно з транспортним університетом.
Нагадаємо, влітку 2025 року наша компанія завершила перший етап будівництва розв’язки у Віті-Поштовій — тунель та кругову розв’язку з боку міста Боярка. Відтепер водії можуть безпечно повертати або розвертатися в бік Києва.Восени минулого року замовник погодив реалізацію другої частини проєкту — дворівневої розв’язки («підкова») для розвороту в бік Одеси. Завершення проєкту нарешті дасть можливість прибрати регульоване перехрестя у Віті-Поштовій (поруч із Південним кладовищем), яке є місцем численних ДТП.
Today, the city of Dnipro serves as the eastern stronghold of Ukraine’s resistance against russia’s invasion. Reliable and fast transport links between the capital and Dnipro are therefore of critical importance.
In 2022, traffic was opened on the first section of the newly built H-31 Dnipro – Tsarychanka – Kobeliaky – Reshetylivka highway within Dnipropetrovsk Region. This modern Category I expressway was constructed by our company in accordance with international standards.
However, this solved the problem only partially.
Construction on Phase II of the project – a 30-kilometer section extending from the Dnipro–Donbas Canal to the border with Poltava Region – has been suspended for five years. As a result, traffic is still forced to use the old alignment – a narrow, deteriorated road passing through populated areas. Heavy freight traffic continues to damage the pavement while creating inconvenience and safety risks for local residents. The road is in poor condition and has long required major rehabilitation.
In 2021, our company completed a substantial volume of works on Phase II of the project:
topsoil stripping was completed;
cuts up to 12 meters deep were excavated;
more than 1.4 million cubic meters of embankment were constructed;
27 out of 28 reinforced concrete culverts of various diameters were installed;
three monolithic overpasses were completed to 90% of their design scope;
a monolithic tunnel-type underpass for agricultural machinery was fully completed, while the remaining structures are at the stage of retaining wall concreting;
four corrugated steel underpasses were installed;
foundations and supports for a 600-meter viaduct were constructed;
6.9 km of pavement base layers and 5.2 km of lower and intermediate asphalt concrete layers were completed.
Given the substantial progress already achieved, there is now an opportunity to make every effort to partially open the Phase II section of the H-31 highway to traffic by the end of the year, albeit with certain operational restrictions.
Construction activities have therefore resumed. Currently, the company is:
constructing embankments and grading slag aggregate layers using machinery equipped with automated control systems;
completing one of the monolithic tunnels designed to connect local communities;
carrying out waterproofing works on reinforced concrete drainage culverts;
installing curb stones along sections where asphalt pavement has already been laid.
PROJECT INFORMATION
The construction of the new H-31 expressway section from the Dnipro–Donbas Canal to the border with Poltava Region includes:
construction of 14 engineering structures, including agricultural underpasses, monolithic tunnels connecting local communities, grade-separated interchanges, and overpasses;
relocation of existing utility networks;
construction of two base layers using slag aggregate;
construction of a crushed stone-sand mixture (CSSM) base layer;
construction of a cement-treated CSSM base layer;
construction of a three-layer asphalt concrete pavement structure;
installation of stormwater treatment facilities for highway runoff;
construction of a storm drainage system;
installation of variable message signs and weather monitoring stations;
installation of roadway lighting at interchanges;
construction of access roads and junctions;
installation of safety barriers;
installation of road signs;
application of road markings;
landscaping of adjacent areas and planting of 5,500 trees;
installation of Weight-in-Motion (WIM) systems in both directions of travel;
installation of noise barriers.
Nearly half a million tonnes of metallurgical slag from steel plants in Dnipropetrovsk Region are planned to be used in the pavement structure.
The most challenging stage of the project is the construction of an almost 600-meter viaduct crossing the meanders of the Oril River within a protected natural area.
The main logistics routes leading to the city had, until recently, been in a critically deteriorated condition. Vehicles carrying military personnel and humanitarian supplies had to spend hours navigating this “obstacle course.”
Despite the security risks associated with ongoing hostilities, Automagistral-Pivden undertook the restoration of two key logistics corridors that serve Kramatorsk.
On the most severely damaged sections, current repairs are being carried out on selected stretches, while other sections are receiving emergency pothole repairs.
As part of the current repair works, the existing pavement is milled, followed by the placement of an asphalt concrete leveling course (6–8 cm) and a 5 cm asphalt concrete surface course.
June 1 is the deadline set by the Cabinet of Ministers for completing the majority of works aimed at restoring traffic on the country’s most important highways. As noted by the Government, priority was given to roads with the highest traffic volumes, the most severe damage, and the greatest importance for logistics, defense, evacuation, and the functioning of local communities.
As usual, the largest share of these works was carried out by Automagistral-Pivden.
As of June 1, we have completed the restoration of more than 2.75 million square meters of road pavement across the Lviv, Volyn, Kyiv, Chernihiv, Sumy, Kharkiv, Dnipropetrovsk, and Odesa regions.
The work continues. Our current focus is military logistics in frontline regions. We are restoring traffic on highways used to support the Armed Forces of Ukraine and to evacuate wounded personnel.
The company has been operating in frontline areas since the very beginning of the full-scale war. During this time, dozens of pieces of equipment have been lost. Nevertheless, Automagistral-Pivden considers it its duty to carry out tasks of strategic importance for the country’s defense.
More details about our work to restore military logistics routes will be shared in upcoming publications.
The new pavement structure of the M-09 highway includes three layers of asphalt concrete:
Coarse-grained base course – 10 cm
Fine-grained binder course – 6 cm
SMA-15 wearing course – 5 cm
At present, more than 22 km of the base course and over 17 km of the binder course have already been completed. This week, works on the wearing course officially began.
In our previous post, we announced the opening of the bridges – two of them are already open to traffic. Final works are ongoing on the remaining bridges, including painting of reinforced concrete surfaces.
The last bridge in Rava-Ruska is planned to be completed within the next few months. Currently, the pile cap at the intermediate bridge pier has already been completed, while piles are being driven at the abutments.
Earthworks related to widening the road embankment are now at the final stage.
Installation of the stormwater drainage system (shown in the photo) is already underway in Rava-Ruska. This is the most challenging section of the project, as the town has a large number of underground utilities that need to be relocated.
Construction of the “horseshoe” interchange in Vita-Poshtova on the M-05 Kyiv – Odesa highway: formwork for the 170-meter monolithic overpass is almost complete!
This week, we are completing an important stage in the construction of the 370-meter two-level interchange – installation of the formwork for the monolithic overpass. Reinforcement works are gradually starting as well. We plan to carry out concreting of the overpass above the highway carriageway within a month.
Construction of reinforced soil retaining walls with a total length of 200 meters is ongoing on the ramps. From the outside, the walls are strengthened with concrete blocks. The crushed stone base course for the pavement structure is being laid on the ramps.The works are expected to be completed by the end of June.
ATTENTION DRIVERS! Due to the installation of the formwork, traffic restrictions have been introduced on this section for vehicles exceeding 4.2 meters in height. Please be extremely careful!As a reminder, in the summer of 2025 our company completed the first stage of the interchange construction in Vita-Pochtova – the tunnel and the roundabout on the Boyarka side. Drivers can now safely turn or make U-turns towards Kyiv.
Last autumn, the client approved the implementation of the second phase of the project — a two-level interchange (“horseshoe”) enabling U-turns towards Odesa. This will finally eliminate the signalized intersection in Vita-Pochtova (near the Southern Cemetery), which has been the site of numerous traffic accidents.
The first routine road repair project in the Sumy region since the start of the full-scale invasion!
Automagistral-Pivden is carrying out routine repairs on the H-07 Kyiv – Sumy – Yunakivka highway in the Sumy region: milling operations and installation of a new leveling asphalt layer.
Work is underway on two sections:
4.4 km between the villages of Pravdyuky and Korovyntsi.
3 km (sections of 1.1 km, 0.95 km, and 1.05 km) within the settlement of Nedryhailiv and the village of Shtepivka.
These are among the worst sections of the H-07 highway. They had originally been scheduled for rehabilitation back in 2022, but since then only pothole repairs had been carried out. At present, almost the entire pavement consists of patches from previous years.
Two paving crews are working on site, involving 50 workers and 22 pieces of equipment. The works are scheduled for completion by June 1
T-1906 highway, Ryzhivka Border Checkpoint – Bilopillia – Lebedyn – Lantrativka: works have been completed – road surface restored over an area of 22,000 m².
H-07 highway, Kyiv – Sumy – Yunakivka: 47,500 m² out of 49,000 m² have been completed, with all works to be finished by the end of the week.
P-61 highway, Baturyn – Konotop – Sumy: 11,800 m² out of 14,000 m² have been completed, with only two days of work remaining.
But the restoration of the region’s roads does not stop there.
This week, “Automagistral-Pivden” is moving on to routine maintenance (!) repairs on the H-07 and H-12 Sumy – Poltava highways.
According to the Ministry for Communities and Territories Development of Ukraine, road surface restoration works are ongoing across the country. Since the beginning of the year, nearly 9 million m² of pavement on national roads have been repaired. This is almost twice as much as during the whole of 2025. More than 200 crews and around 2,000 specialists are working on the roads every day.
The leader of the spring campaign to restore the country’s most important highways is Automagistral-Pivden!
Our company has restored every fourth square meter of road surface repaired in Ukraine.
Automagistral-Pivden is repairing half of the highways where, according to the Ministry, the largest volumes of work are being carried out and which are under special public attention.
These include the M-03 Kyiv – Kharkiv – Dovzhanskyi, M-05 Kyiv – Odesa, and M-29 Kharkiv – Krasnohrad – Pereshchepyne – Dnipro highways (pictured: repair works on the M-29 highway in Kharkiv region).
The company is carrying out works in the Dnipropetrovsk, Kharkiv, Odesa, Sumy, Volyn, Kyiv, Chernihiv, and Lviv regions.
A total of 48 crews are involved: 550 workers and around 280 units of machinery.
A year has passed since ‘Avtomagistral-Pivden’ began a major overhaul of the M-09 highway on the section between Lviv and the checkpoint ‘Rava-Ruska — Hrebenne.’
During this time, the asphalt concrete pavement has been laid on 20 of 34 km!
The final stage also includes an equally important direction — bridge construction.
In total, the major repair of M-09 involves the reconstruction of 6 bridges. Five of them are practically ready — the installation of the first layer of asphalt concrete pavement is ongoing.
Very soon we are preparing to open traffic, after which we will begin dismantling the detours.
Three more bridges have been replaced with two-span concrete pipes. The fourth pipe is still in progress.
Other types of work are also progressing actively: embankment arrangement and road widening, preparation of the road base, and laying of two layers of asphalt concrete pavement.
Installation of storm drainage continues; work has started in the last settlement — Rava-Ruska.
Curb installation has started in the settlements.
Let us recall, the M-09 highway is the main route from Kyiv to Warsaw, which is part of the Trans-European Transport Network (TEN-T). The length of the repair section (from Vola-Vysotska village to the checkpoint) is 33.4 km. Even before the war, the EBRD conducted a road safety audit, an economic feasibility analysis, as well as an environmental and social assessment. In 2020, an agreement was signed between Ukraine and the bank to finance a number of projects, among which was the major repair of M-09. During the war, the project became even more relevant: the load on the road increased, and the condition of the pavement deteriorated. What the project entails: ✅ Outside populated areas, the road is being widened — an additional traffic lane is added; ✅ On both sides near stops, intersections, and junctions, transition-acceleration lanes are being arranged; ✅ The road base is completely replaced, and a new covering of three layers of asphalt concrete is being installed; ✅ Six bridges are being rebuilt (most of them are in disrepair), four bridges are being replaced with concrete pipes, and a roundabout interchange is being constructed.
⏩️During the war, the M-29 road is a key transport corridor between Dnipropetrovsk and Kharkiv regions with very heavy traffic.
✅In Dnipropetrovsk region, on certain sections, we need to replace 278,000 m² of pavement over a stretch of 53 km.
✅In Kharkiv region, plans are to restore 158,000 m² over a stretch of 120 km.
In both regions, two full asphalt-laying complexes are working. ♂️Teams from both regions are moving towards each other and are expected to meet at the regional border.
The completion of the work is scheduled for June 1.
“Avtomahistral-Pivden” continues the installation of nets near Kharkiv on a 17 km section of the road.
✅ So far, 10 km have been fully completed — almost 300,000 m² of nets have been installed!
✅ At 12 km, the installation of guy wires is finished.
✅ At 15 km, 4,500 metal supports have been installed!
❗️In total, in Kharkiv and Dnipropetrovsk regions, the company has “covered” over 50 km of roads with nets. Our facilities have successfully withstood ice rains, snowfalls, and hurricane winds.
☀️The client assures that summer heat will also not harm the coating. The material of European production has UV protection. Unlike regular fishing nets, such nets will not crumble in the sun.
