A massive traffic jam formed at the entrance to Nizhny Novgorod on July 12.

      On July 12, 2026, at 14:46 Society A traditional Sunday traffic jam has formed at the entrance to Nizhny Novgorod near the village of Olgino, readers reported to NIA "Nizhny Novgorod." "Every weekend it's the same. Either you leave the dacha early in the morning and drive without stops, or after noon you crawl in traffic like a turtle," shared Svetlana P. The flow of cars is dense both from the side of Bogorodsk and from the side of Arzamas. In Olgino, the streams merge, creating a jam. The situation is currently exacerbated by a queue of those wishing to refuel at the gas station in Shcherbinki. It is noteworthy that there are no traffic jams at the entrances in other parts of the city (for example, from the side of Bor). NIA "Nizhny Novgorod" has channels on Telegram and MAX.
