Reconstruction of the Slavutich Stadium in Zaporogie.

 

 

Reconstruction of the Central Stadium of Zaporogie has started in 2000. At that time the reconstruction was directed to hydro insulation upgrade.

In 2004 the reconstruction of the stadium restarted. This time total reconstruction was considered. This project was much more successful. Project was accomplished before the UEFA commission visit in July 2006. Official opening of the stadium took place on July 29.

Earlier this month Ministry of Construction found mistakes in the project of New Railway Bridge over river Dnepr in Kiev. The mistakes are made in bridge's piers design. 7 piers are under reinforcing works now and other 10 piers will be built in accordance with the new project.

The Commission was satisfied with the fact that the cost of the bridge's steel structures was set flat in 2004. Initial cost of the project as approved was 3.9B UAH. At the moment cost of construction is 7B UAH, and the Commission estimated the final cost up to 10-12B UAH.

Mr. Suchkov director of the bridge construction on duty told that the major cause of the bridge construction delay is a group of commercial properties that are still on the bridge's way. There are about 20 lots. The agreement is not reached in some cases. Lots owners have been offered compensation or their facilities rebuilding on new lots.

Mr. Suchkov also mentioned that previous bridge construction administration had three general contractors on this project Planeta-Most, Mostobud, and Turkish company Dogus. Ukrzaliznytsya sets the only one general contractor Planeta-Most. Others parties of the project will act as subcontractors.
