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.

A criminal case has been opened in Nizhny Novgorod against the deputy general director of a road construction company. He is suspected of giving a bribe to an official through an intermediary in an especially large amount. The actions have been qualified under Part 5 of Article 291 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, the regional Investigative Directorate of the Investigative Committee of Russia reported.
Investigators established that from September 2024 to February 2025 the accused handed over 2.5 million rubles to an employee of a state institution responsible for examining project documentation and engineering surveys. The money was intended for expedited review of a highway construction project.
The illegal scheme was uncovered by the investigative department for the Nizhny Novgorod district of the regional Investigative Directorate of the Investigative Committee of Russia. Officers of the regional branch of the Federal Security Service (FSB) also took part in uncovering the crime.
The court ordered that the suspect be held in custody.
The Nizhny Novgorod Investigative Directorate added that necessary investigative actions and operational-search measures are currently being carried out to collect and secure evidence in the case.
Earlier it was reported that the Nizhny Novgorod prosecutor’s office demanded a review of the dismissal of the arrested deputy head of GUMMiD, who was detained in July 2025. The bribery case is also being investigated in relation to former GUMMiD head Andrey Levdikov, who resigned in May 2025. A court extended his pre-trial detention until December 15, 2025.
