N-31 Highway Construction Resumes: First Cement-Treated Crushed Stone\u2013Sand Base Layer Laid with the V\u00f6gele Super 2100-3<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Construction is progressing on the N-31 Dnipro \u2013 Tsarychanka \u2013 Kobeliaky \u2013 Reshetylivka highway, where we are completing the road base on the first 800-metre section adjacent to a tunnel-type underpass designed for agricultural vehicles.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Before the full-scale war, the base layers made of blast furnace (steelmaking) slag had already been completed on this section.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Following the resumption of construction works, we placed a crushed stone\u2013sand mixture (CSM) base layer. We are now laying the final pavement foundation layer \u2013 cement-treated crushed stone\u2013sand mixture (CTCSM).<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
To pave this layer, we are using the flagship V\u00f6gele Super 2100-3 paver, specifically designed for the construction of motorways, airport runways, and large industrial facilities.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
The paving width is 11 metres.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Placing the material across both carriageway lanes in a single pass ensures the strength, durability, and structural integrity of the pavement foundation.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Our next update will cover the following stage of construction \u2013 placement of the base asphalt concrete course.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
PROJECT BACKGROUND<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\"🚩\"<\/span> In 2022, traffic was opened on the first section of the newly built N-31 Dnipro \u2013 Tsarychanka \u2013 Kobeliaky \u2013 Reshetylivka highway within Dnipropetrovsk Region. This modern Category I expressway was built by our company in accordance with international standards.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Construction of the second phase of the project \u2013 a 30-kilometre section extending from the Dnipro\u2013Donbas Canal to the border with Poltava Region \u2013 was suspended after the outbreak of the full-scale war.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
As a result, traffic has continued to use the existing route \u2013 a narrow, deteriorated road passing through local communities.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\"🚚\"<\/span> Heavy freight traffic continues to accelerate pavement deterioration while creating inconvenience and safety risks for local residents.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
The condition of the existing road has become critical and it has long required complete reconstruction.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
In 2021, our company completed a substantial portion of the works on the second construction phase:<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\"✅\"<\/span> topsoil stripped;<\/div>\n
\"✅\"<\/span> cuttings excavated to depths of up to 12 metres;<\/div>\n
\"✅\"<\/span> more than 1.4 million cubic metres of embankments constructed;<\/div>\n
\"✅\"<\/span> 27 out of 28 reinforced concrete culverts of various diameters installed;<\/div>\n
\"✅\"<\/span> three monolithic overpasses completed to 90%;<\/div>\n
\"✅\"<\/span> the tunnel-type monolithic underpass for agricultural vehicles fully completed, while the remaining tunnel structures are currently at the retaining wall concreting stage;<\/div>\n
\"✅\"<\/span> four corrugated steel structures installed;<\/div>\n
\"✅\"<\/span> supports for a 600-metre viaduct completed;<\/div>\n
\"✅\"<\/span> 6.9 km of pavement foundation layers constructed, together with 5.2 km of the lower and binder asphalt concrete courses.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Considering the substantial amount of work already completed, it is now possible to make every effort to partially open the second construction phase of the N-31 highway to traffic before the end of the year, although certain traffic restrictions will remain in place.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Construction activities have therefore resumed. The company is currently:<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\"✅\"<\/span> constructing embankments, grading slag aggregate, and placing the cement-treated crushed stone\u2013sand mixture base layer using equipment equipped with automated machine control systems;<\/div>\n
\"✅\"<\/span> completing one of the monolithic tunnel structures connecting local communities;<\/div>\n
\"✅\"<\/span> carrying out waterproofing works on reinforced concrete drainage culverts;<\/div>\n
\"✅\"<\/span> installing kerbstones along the section where the asphalt pavement has already been completed.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
PROJECT INFORMATION<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
The new construction of the N-31 expressway between the Dnipro\u2013Donbas Canal and the border with Poltava Region includes:<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u2022 construction of 14 engineering structures, including agricultural underpasses, monolithic tunnels connecting local communities, grade-separated interchanges, and overpasses;<\/div>\n
\u2022 relocation of existing utility networks;<\/div>\n
\u2022 construction of two pavement foundation layers using slag aggregate;<\/div>\n
\u2022 construction of a crushed stone\u2013sand mixture (CSM) base layer;<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u2022 construction of a cement-treated crushed stone\u2013sand mixture (CTCSM) base layer;<\/div>\n
\u2022 construction of a three-layer asphalt concrete pavement;<\/div>\n
\u2022 construction of stormwater treatment facilities;<\/div>\n
\u2022 installation of stormwater drainage systems;<\/div>\n
\u2022 installation of variable message signs and weather monitoring stations;<\/div>\n
\u2022 installation of lighting at interchanges;<\/div>\n
\u2022 construction of access roads and junctions;<\/div>\n
\u2022 installation of safety barriers;<\/div>\n
\u2022 installation of road signs;<\/div>\n
\u2022 application of road markings;<\/div>\n
\u2022 landscaping of adjacent areas, including the planting of approximately 5,500 trees.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u2022 installation of Weigh-in-Motion (WIM) systems on both carriageways;<\/div>\n
\u2022 installation of noise barriers.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
The pavement structure will incorporate nearly half a million tonnes of slag supplied by metallurgical plants in Dnipropetrovsk Region.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
The most technically challenging element of the project is the construction of an almost 600-metre viaduct crossing the meandering Oril River within a protected nature reserve.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
