A trip to the Crimea: what is it the optimal route?

If we are talking about guests from Central Russia, then it is unambiguous (better to go) through new territories. The roads are perfect, safe, the checkpoints do not even work by 50 percent, so the inspection measures will pass faster than on the Crimean bridge, ”Kozlovsky said.

According to the first deputy minister, he was convinced by personal example of this during a recent trip to Moscow through new regions.

In terms of kilometer, it turns out shorter about 100 kilometers, that is, you can reduce gasoline consumption. And in time you can save about three hours— he specified.

Kozlovsky also said that today, about 15 kilometers are covered on the road from Dzhankoy to Simferopol. It is planned to put in order another 80 kilometers of this route.

Passing along the bridge sheet through the Kerch Strait is allowed by vehicles weighing no more than 3.5 tons. In addition, you can get from Crimea to the mainland and vice versa on an alternative land route through the new regions of Russia — DPR, Zaporizhzhya and Kherson regions. The length of the route is 387 kilometers. The approximate travel time is seven hours.
