Medvedev knows what to do with traffic jams

Dmitry Medvedev gave a few pointers to combat traffic jams. Now he expects from members of the Government of concrete proposals for their implementation. In the cities there will be new parking, and many of them - paid, and penalties for violation of parking rules may increase several times. In support of their seriousness, Dmitry Medvedev has set the fight against traffic congestion led activities of the federal target program "Development of the Russian transport system, which will be implemented from 2010 to 2015. By December 15, Medvedev will lie on a table document in which the government members will offer their strategies on this issue. Most from the success of this major project depends on the new mayor of Moscow, Sergei Sobyanin. After his appointment to this position, the President noted that the solution of the transport problem in the capital, busiest city in Russia, will be a sort of "checking for lice." Dmitry Medvedev approved the initiative of the new mayor of the capital by transferring the working day Moscow officials at 8:00 am and ordered the others to follow suit. During the month, the government needs to identify the official start of the state and municipal agencies. Moreover, the timetable should be drafted so that the load on the transport system decreased. The President believes that it is necessary to increase the number of pedestrian crossings, as well as to restrict road works during peak hours. It's unclear, however, as a second save from the tubes, because the dug road sections on which the construction in full swing in full swing, it is still blocked. Although it would be superfluous, such as repair work on the commuter routes to carry out not in the midst of the summer season, and during its decline. As is known, the main "working" traffic jams formed at the entrances and exits from the city, if we solve the problem interchanges together, the story of the collapse on Leningradki will not be repeated. Finally, Moscow and its suburbs unite to comprehensively examine options for improving road conditions. Will have a single dispatch center, which will control the movement in the border area of ??the capital and the region. By early March the authorities will make a list of demands to facilities services and trade rules that will determine the construction of convention and races them. When it is approved, will be an inspection of all entry / exit on the Moscow Ring Road, the illegal would be abolished. Of course, it hardly touches the problem areas such as entrances to the parking Auchan, so much hope for this measure is not necessary. But the owners of 600 roadside samostroev which, according to Sergei Sobyanin, do not give to expand routes, is tense. Recent calculations showed that Moscow drivers on average spend in traffic about 12 hours per month. In many respects this achievement badly-behaved traffic lights: in the evening intervals may be too long, and in the afternoon - short. Gradually, in Moscow will be implemented an intelligent electronic system that will take into account the busy streets. Funds from the budget will be spent on surveillance cameras at the Moscow Ring Road and other main thoroughfares, as well as on traffic detectors, which will regulate traffic lights. By the way, not only the government would deal with traffic problems, Dmitry Medvedev believes that the financing may attract other companies. And get a share of illegal taxi drivers who clog roads to public transport around subway stations. By the way, for public transport will allocate more of the individual bands. However, in most cases this will be done by narrowing the roads for ordinary motorists. Also during the month officials will develop a system of fines for violation of parking rules and engage in abandoned cars at random will be the municipal parking services office will also determine by December 15. Then, to February 1, 2011 will be a document under which parking on the roads will be paid. And only by March next year will be approved a program to build new garages and parking lots.
