      In the center of Nizhny Novgorod, a landslide occurred on the Zeleny descent. Soil from the slope partially collapsed onto the roadway, causing a serious traffic jam. Municipal services and specialists quickly arrived at the scene to clear the area and assess the condition of the slope. This was reported by Ni Mash. According to city authorities, traffic on the Zeleny descent will be temporarily restricted at night. This is necessary for cleaning the area and subsequent restoration work. For the safety of drivers and pedestrians, special equipment will be working on-site, and road service employees will be on duty.

      The preliminary cause of the landslide was an excess of moisture after the snow melted. The soil became saturated with water and could not withstand the pressure, leading to the slide. Currently, specialists are inspecting other areas of the slope to prevent possible repeat incidents.
