      A heightened readiness regime has been introduced on Zarechny Boulevard in Nizhny Novgorod. The reason was the formation of a ground collapse in the area of the hydraulic tunnel above the bed of the Rzhavka River, located next to the cable car construction site across the Oka. This was reported on the mayor’s office website.

      Special safety measures have been in effect since October 10 on the section between shafts No. 16 and No. 4, and also in the area near the Russia cinema. Monitoring has been intensified for the stretch of the tunnel running adjacent to residential buildings No. 5 and No. 7 on Zarechny Boulevard.

      Responsibility for installing barriers and warning signs has been assigned to the city’s Department for Engineering Protection of Territories, which will also organize the repair work. The cable car developer will be officially notified of the introduction of the special regime in the construction zone.

      Recall, construction of the cable car across the Oka began in the summer of 2025 at the site next to the Russia cinema. Major works are expected to be completed by the end of 2026, and in 2027 the contractor will be engaged in equipment commissioning. The crossing is expected to launch in early spring 2027.
