Massive project moved one step further
The Glavgosexpertiza of Russia has approved the project for the construction of a section of the Moscow-Kazan-Yekaterinburg high-speed highway from the capital to the city of Vladimir. A message about this yesterday appeared on the official website of the institution. The experts studied the project documentation and came to the conclusion that it complies with all regulations, and the cost estimate is not overstated.
The Vladimir and Moscow segments of the HSR, 172 km long, are assigned to stages No. 3 and No. 4. As part of the third stage, preparatory work will take place on this section of the highway, and then, at the fourth stage, the construction of the branch itself, overpasses and stations will begin. Four stations for high-speed trains are planned in our region - in Petushki, Vladimir, Kovrov and Gorokhovets, but only the first two will be built at this stage of the project. Stations will also appear in Orekhovo-Zuyevo and Noginsk.
According to the website of Glavgosexpertiza, the station complex in Petushki will occupy an area of 81 hectares and will be designed for 200 passengers. In Vladimir, only 66 hectares are allocated for the facility, but it will already be able to accommodate 1,800 people.
As for overpasses and traffic interchanges, according to the project, the construction of the following related facilities is envisaged:
- in the Petushinsky district - two overpasses, as well as an overpass across the river. Shitka, bridges over the river. Kirzhach, Black, Tanka, etc.;
- in the Sobinsky district - railway overpasses on the Nazarovo-Stukovo highway and on the R-57 - M-7 highway (Kolchugino-Vladimir);
- in Vladimir - a road overpass on the Mosino-Volosovo highway. Later, a railway overpass will be built near Vladimir at the intersection with the Bogolyubovo-Vtorovo highway.
In total, in the 33rd region, 25,688 hectares of forests will be cut down for the sake of the high-speed railway (in terms of area - 98 Druzhba parks), 200 bridges, 20 flyovers, 10 viaducts, 7 animal ducts and dozens of cattle drives will be built. The total length of the regional section will be 247 km, along the territory of Vladimir - 5 km. Citizens will be able to get to the capital in an hour. Designers estimate that high-speed trains will carry 5.1 million people a year and run 40 times a day in each direction.
HSR station in Vladimir
Recall that last year the projects of four HSR stations in region-33 were considered at the town planning council in the White House. However, the officials did not like the submitted sketches, and they were sent for revision. In particular, it was noted that access roads were not worked out, a sufficient number of parking spaces were not provided, and the appearance of the objects did not fit into the surrounding landscape.
And the Vladimir authorities have already begun to prepare for the construction of a high-speed highway and even ordered a new version of the general plan, in which the development of the city will be adjusted taking into account this object.
HSR, who does not know, is a high-speed highway. Railway, on which trains will run from 200 to 400 km/h.VSM-1 is the Moscow-Peter road. But it was postponed until better times, because Sapasn walks anyway.
All efforts will be focused on the landmark, important for the future of Russia, section of the VSL-2: Moscow-Kazan-Yekaterinburg.
See the materials for the project here and here.
Public hearings on the HSR project in Chuvashia
Public hearings are the first, but not the last. In 10 days they promise to lay out new maps, now rough, sketchy sketches are presented.
And the entire project is expected to be completed by the end of next year, and then - construction until 2018.
And a complete buzz will come - it will be possible to get to Kazan in 40 minutes, to Nizhny Novgorod - in an hour, to Moscow - in 3 hours!
Thus, everything falls into place. Each distance has its own most profitable mode of transport:
- auto - at short distances;
- high-speed railway - on average (up to 1500 km);
- air - on large ones.
A certain JSC "High-Speed Lines" is engaged in the project. The project itself is being developed again by St. Petersburg Lengiprotrans.
They gave us a presentation of the project and answered a number of questions:
The designers shared with us a presentation video; ivand_cheb was the first to share it, see:
Television also worked, wait for the report:
Upd: and here is the report:
Actually, the project has long been discussed on the forum. We didn't hear anything new.
The recommended option has not changed.
The northern option would have passed between Cheboksary and Kuges. And the recommended one is just south of Kuges:
The project of passing the high-speed line in Chuvashia
More:
A station is supposed to be south of Kuges and as close as possible to the M7 highway.
True, ivand_cheb reasonably doubts whether trains will stop at our place at all. Because the amount of time Moscow-Nizhny-Kazan-Cheboksary does not converge even in the documents of the high-speed railway ...
Nevertheless, a local comrade (former Minister of Construction Vladimir Filatov) turned the conversation with "subtle hints" to the topic of how to get to the station.
The perfect New Vasyuki came out, where the New Bogdanka long designed by the Japanese (today performed by Ermolaev - Sadovy microdistrict) could now continue by monorail to the VSM station:
Bogdanka will open the way to HSR :)
However, this is all in a much more distant future than the still ghostly highway itself.
In the meantime, the obvious prospect looks something like this:
The situation on the M7 is no better, and even much worse, especially at the exit from Cheboksary to Kugesy or Lapsary.
But let's not talk about sad things.
The hearing was attended by many interested people. Including representatives of summer residents, through whose sites the recommended variant of the HSR will pass (gardening partnership "Dubrava"):
Residents are worried...
Unfortunately, there is nothing to calm them down. Anyone who has to be relocated will be compensated, probably at the cadastral value. Of course, land prices in this region will skyrocket, and the happy owner of compensation is unlikely to be able to purchase a similar plot ...
Environmentalists asked persistent questions. As atner aptly puts it, they are more interested in animals than people. Here the conversation was not very constructive.
Although yes, forests will be affected. But it seems like the designer guarantees that specially protected natural areas will not be touched.
Well, for people, the most important harmful factor is noise (for details, see the voluminous document on environmental impact assessment). At the same time, it turns out that 750m is a sufficient noise-safe distance to the road according to the standards. And if you use noise screens, then 50 meters is enough. This, by the way, will have to be done in a number of villages, and in Kugesy, where the HSR will pass almost under the windows.
The document lists problem settlements: Kivsertkasy, Sotnikovo, Arzamatovo, Kochino, Verkh.Magaz, Bol.Chigir, Bol.Knyaz-Tenyakovo, Kugesi, Shorkino, Sinyal-Churachiki, Kurmyshi, Morgaushi, Kashmashi, Torayevo, Anatkasy, Bol.Churashevo , Mal.Churashevo, Sareevo, Yadrin, Polyanki, Shinerposi:
In addition to noise, crossings under the highway will be a big problem. Of course, there can be no talk of any crossings with barriers. But interchanges are at different levels of the road. And agricultural machinery, in order to get to the second half of a field divided by a highway, will often have to go around well if a couple of kilometers ...
Look at the preliminary maps of the passage of the VSM-2 in areas close to Cheboksary (I remind those who suddenly do not know that by clicking on the photos they open in full size):
If the northern option is adopted, then the long-suffering cottage village "Valley of Good Luck" (now "Zagorskoye") would be problematic. But it seems that they were lucky - according to the recommended option, the HSR will pass much to the south:
Well, the new bridges across the Sura and the Volga necessary for the high-speed rail lines were of special interest:
After the completion of the hearings, atner specifically spoke to the designers:
I don’t know what he was talking about, I’ll tell you myself :)
In the meantime, listen to the audio recordings:
Upd: While we are waiting for the promised details of the project, atner drew a map of the entire highway.

The first high-speed railway will connect Moscow and Kazan
My factory is located on the planet Vyazniki. It's somewhere in the solar system.Maps say that from Vyazniki to the Moscow Kremlin 300 km. Outrageous, blatant lie!
Because the absolute truth is that:
The bus goes from us to Moscow 6-7 hours, two buses a day.
Fast train - 5 hours, two or three trains a day.
The world's slowest high-speed train "Sapsan" stops either in Vladimir or in Dzerzhinsk, both 100 km from us.
Express mail EMS delivers a package of documents to Moscow in 5 days.
Other express services do not have offices in Vyazniki; at best, their couriers visit us once a week.
The nearest transport companies are in Nizhny Novgorod or Vladimir.
To buy some lousy spare part for a computer or, God forbid, for a machine, you have to wait at least a week. A trip to an exhibition or some fucking seminar becomes a whole event.
Just don't tell me that all the problems are due to the geographical extent of Russia. Three hundred kilometers is not a distance even for a tiny country. And the population density is high: within a radius of 100 km there are five large cities: Nizhny, Vladimir, Ivanovo, Murom, Kovrov. And Vyazniki themselves have 40,000 inhabitants. We already have broadband Internet, digital television and e-government in every village. But we send urgent documents with the drivers of passing buses, just like in the good old days.
High-speed Kazan will not stop in Vyazniki. As before, local entrepreneurs will leave for Nizhny or Moscow as soon as possible. And the government will continue to sincerely wonder why small towns are dying.

The fourth meeting of the Russian-Chinese working group on high-speed lines was held yesterday in Chengdu (China). According to the press service of the Gorky Railway (GZD), the meeting participants agreed to start work on preparing a list of products required for the creation of high-speed rail lines, the production of which can be localized in Russia (80% of all materials, as well as modern high-speed rolling stock, should be produced on the territory of our country). The Chinese side also confirmed its intention to invest 250 billion rubles in the project and provide loans for 150 billion. The specially created Silk Road Investment Fund and the China Development Bank can take part in the financing. The final organizational and legal model for the implementation of the project will be agreed before the end of 2015.
The news has already sparked heated discussion on the City Forum website. "Thus, Pyra, Lesnaya Polyana, Gnilitsky Dvoriki, Stroiteley and Sartakovo villages are being demolished. There won't be enough money to buy the land," he wrote. GribNik. "We have a garden in Doskino, the brain is boiling. Letters signed by Medvedev came to the chairmen of all nearby gardens - do not interfere. There is panic in gardening," she added DARA. "The bridge will be designed new," - said railway worker. "Where's the specifics?" - asked Blackpool.
Anatoly Lesun said at a press conference that agreements in principle have already been reached with the regions on the route. “A week ago, representatives of High-Speed Lines OJSC, which is the customer of the project, met with the governor of the Nizhny Novgorod region Valery Shantsev, at which we finally decided on the passage of the route. Where exactly the route will pass will be clear after the design work and the implementation of the land surveying project, but the main directions are clear to us, ”quotes Anatoly Lesun newspaper "Kommersant". In addition, the parties agreed on the location of stations and transport hubs in the region: high-speed trains will stop five times in the Nizhny Novgorod Region. In addition to the Moscow railway station in Nizhny Novgorod, the Nizhny Novgorod airport and Dzerzhinsk, stops are planned in the village of Niva on the border of the Nizhny Novgorod region with Chuvashia and near the village of Polyanki on the border of the Kstovsky and Lyskovsky districts of the region.
The City Planning Council of the Moscow Region has adopted a concept for the development of the territory along which the Moscow-Kazan high-speed highway will pass, the press service of the Deputy Chairman of the Government of the Moscow Region German Yelyanyushkin reports.
The document links the construction of the high-speed line with the development of railway passenger traffic throughout the east of the region. writes. .
According to German Yelyanyushkin, Deputy Chairman of the Government of the Moscow Region, the draft planning has been approved for further approval by the authorized bodies of the federal level. “The document defines the elements of the planning structure of the future HSR, establishes the boundaries of land plots intended for the construction of railways and facilities related to their operation,” says German Yelyanyushkin. – The construction of a network of high-speed lines and high-speed highways today is one of the promising and priority areas for the development of the transport system of the Moscow region and the country as a whole. The new high-speed line Moscow-Kazan-Yekaterinburg will connect several regions, reduce the cost of transportation and increase the capacity of the direction, which is now very busy. Now high-speed trains will not just “fly” through the territory of the Moscow region, but will become available to residents of the region.”
For high-speed lines, a transport corridor has been allocated with the main routes of the Gorky direction of the Moscow road and the federal highway M-7 Volga. The route will pass through the urban districts of Reutov and Balashikha, the Noginsk municipal district, the urban district of Elektrostal, Pavlovo-Posadsky and Orekhovo-Zuevsky municipal districts to the border with the Vladimir region.
In Noginsk and Orekhovo-Zuev, it is planned to build two railway stations with underground passages and parking lots for public and passenger transport. The Noginsk HSR terminal is planned to be built near the village of Borilovo in the rural settlement of Akseno-Butyrskoye, and the Orekhovo-Zuevsky terminal is planned to be built in the area of the village of Krolchatnik in the rural settlement of Malodubenskoye. Parking of high-speed trains will be here for 2-3 minutes.
Thus, passengers will be able to overcome the distance from Moscow (Kursky railway station) to Noginsk (53 km) in half an hour, and from Noginsk to Orekhovo-Zuev (35 km) in 15 minutes. The average speed of trains on these sections will be 160 km/h and 250 km/h, respectively.
In addition to integrating the high-speed line into the transport system of the Moscow region, a fourth main track to Zheleznodorozhnaya station and a second track on the Reutovo-Balashikha section will be built along the Kursk direction. This will unload the main line, launch additional trains and thus reduce the interval between the movement of electric trains.
It will be possible to get from Kursky railway station to Zheleznodorozhnaya station in 35 minutes by commuter trains, and in 25 minutes by express trains, and the interval between trains will also be reduced.
The VSR will have 30 intersections with existing and planned roads and railways. For unimpeded traffic, five bridges, 17 overpasses and overpasses will be built, as well as 36.6 km of noise barriers will be installed. For safety, it is planned to build and reconstruct 14 pedestrian bridges and tunnels.
As explained by Dmitry Torgashin, head of the Technical Department of High-Speed Railroads JSC, the length of the high-speed rail section that runs through the region will be 85 km, and all technical solutions have been adopted that will reduce and minimize the negative impact on residents and the environment.
OJSC Mosgiprotrans, which leads the consortium of designers, together with OJSC High-Speed Lines, published environmental impact assessment materials for the construction of high-speed lines in the Moscow Region at the end of May for public hearings. According to experts, the HSR “should increase economic competition, primarily with air transport, especially during the summer period with a seasonal maximum of passenger traffic. Such competition should have a positive impact on air and rail pricing.”
In terms of the environmental component, the greatest damage will be caused to the environment directly during construction, but all compensatory measures and payments are provided for in the project. Thus, payments for environmental impact in the Moscow Region will amount to more than 1.6 billion rubles during the construction period, and 104.6 million rubles during operation.
“All positive impact factors will be of medium and low levels of intensity,” Mosgiprotrans concludes. – A low level of negative impact is forecast, mainly during the construction period. The negative impact will be covered by the generally higher value of the positive impact.”
As Alexander Misharin, First Vice-President of JSC Russian Railways, told reporters at the international forum "Strategic Partnership 1520" earlier, the company plans to transfer the project of the first section of the Moscow-Nizhny Novgorod high-speed line to Glavgosexpertiza in July.
HSR Moscow-Kazan is the 1st stage of the organization of high-speed rail communication in the Russian Federation. The line of the first high-speed line will pass through the territory of 7 constituent entities of the Russian Federation: Moscow and the Moscow region, Vladimir and Nizhny Novgorod regions, the Chuvash Republic, the Republic of Mari El and the Republic of Tatarstan. The HSR will connect the capitals of the regions with a single route 790 km long with stops in 16 settlements of various sizes. The operating speed of trains on the route will be
up to 360 km/h.
The launch of the high-speed line between Moscow and Kazan will reduce the distance between cities by 4 times: the travel time will be reduced to 3 hours and 17 minutes against the current 14 hours on the existing railway infrastructure. And the travel time between Nizhny Novgorod and Kazan will be reduced by 7 times: from 10.5 to 1.5 hours. The average travel time between the capitals of the regions will be no more than one hour. There has never been such a high speed of railway communication in Russia.
Regional Development Project
HSR Moscow-Kazan is a regional development project, a project for the development of small towns and the transformation of single-industry towns into points of economic, social and cultural growth. The dynamic development of modern society has introduced new mandatory requirements for the speed of movement. Cities and territories can no longer close in on themselves and live a static life. The unification of regions into an agglomeration is becoming a prerequisite for development.
Transport with a speed of up to 360 km/h contributes to the formation of agglomerations. Agglomeration, as a whole, becomes more than the sum of its parts, acquires properties that are not inherent in its individual elements. It becomes a "point of growth" and a factor in the development of the adjacent territory, where labor productivity is significantly increased. It is the high-speed rail rolling stock that moves at a sufficient speed to provide the one-hour transport accessibility necessary for the formation of an agglomeration.
The launch of high-speed traffic will increase the level of accessibility of jobs and social facilities, including educational and medical institutions, cultural and sports centers. This will lead to an increase in the level of consumption of services and goods, new jobs will be created to meet demand, and housing construction will increase. Even at the construction stage, more than 370,000 jobs will be created in various sectors of the economy. It is planned to create 155.2 thousand jobs only in the manufacturing industry.
Due to the multiplier effects after the construction of the Moscow-Kazan high-speed line, the total increase in GRP for the first 10 years of high-speed line operation will be from 9.3 trillion rubles. High-speed rail lifts the Russian economy.
Technologies ahead of time
HSR Moscow-Kazan is an innovative project. Moreover, both from a functional point of view, and from a technical one. A special place in the project of the highway is occupied by the ballastless structure of the track superstructure, which is the main design solution. The VSM project carries out a qualitative transition in the creation of a railway track from the classical technology using crushed stone and sleepers, to a monolithic concrete structure. This is an intelligent path filled with sensors that allow you to monitor the state of the structure throughout its entire life cycle.
Almost a third of the Moscow-Kazan HSR route will run along bridges and overpasses. To ensure high-speed traffic and not interfere with the movement of vehicles, the designers needed to get rid of intersections with the existing road network. The VSR has no level crossings with other transport lines and solves the problem of long waiting times at railway crossings. In addition, many different ecological crossings are planned along the route, for example, to preserve the migration paths of wild animals. During construction, high noise barriers will be erected.
Each section of the HSR project documentation contains many innovations, each technology at the Moscow-Kazan HSR is the result of the work of a large number of diversified specialists, both Russian and foreign. The design is being carried out by an international consortium consisting of JSC Mosgiprotrans, JSC Nizhegorodmetroproekt, China Railway Eryuan Engineering Group Co. Ltd.
For the first time in the world, the contact network is designed for movement up to 360 km/h. The project uses unified structures of artificial structures (split beam systems and continuous reinforced concrete beam systems) and subgrade construction. The traffic safety system is maximally automated, eliminating the influence of the "human factor". At the same time, the level of localization of production, both in terms of software and equipment, is at least 85%: the first Russian high-speed railway will be built by Russian enterprises.
An important part of the project is the construction of modern transport hubs and the development of adjacent territories, which will contribute to the creation of induced passenger traffic on the highway and reduce the payback period of the project. When designing station complexes, comfort for passengers, rational internal logistics and meeting the needs of passengers with disabilities are at the forefront.
In order to meet the needs of any passenger, VSR provides carriages of various service classes: tourist, economy, business and first class. The social accessibility of high-speed lines, the opportunity to choose the optimal level of comfort for leisure or work, without overpaying for excessive service - this is what will make the Moscow-Kazan high-speed line a popular mode of transport. However, no matter what service conditions the passengers choose, they will all travel at the same speed.

VSM is a ticket to the future
“The railway is not a subject of natural necessity and will increase the tendency to unnecessary movement from place to place, while luring out unnecessary costs from the public,” Count Yegor Kankrin, the Minister of Finance of Tsarist Russia, said in the 19th century. Despite the skepticism of many critics, it was in the 19th century that the development of railways began, thanks to which, by the 20th century, Russia had reached the position of one of the most developed countries in the world.
A similar process is taking place today. High-speed rail Moscow-Kazan is a project of the 21st century, which will give the country a powerful state effect, allowing to really start the Russian economy. Speaking in the dry language of numbers, the expected cumulative effect of the functioning of the Moscow-Kazan highway until 2030 will be 3.4 trillion. rubles within the state budget, the total GDP growth (due to agglomeration effects) will reach 11.7 trillion. rubles, and the gross growth of the Russian economy will increase by 28 trillion. rubles. For every ruble invested in high-speed rail, the economy will receive 1.48 rubles.
