The Housing and Communal Services Department of Izmail City Council has announced a search for a contractor to carry out the current repair of the road surface of Heroiv Azovstalii Street (Krasnodonska Street before it was renamed). The expected cost of the works is UAH 6 million 615 thousand.
An Intent correspondent learned about this from the public procurement website Prozorro.
It is a section of Heroyiv Azovstaliyi Street from house number 103 to house number 123. These are all private houses of citizens. The tender states that this road is the route to the port facilities and transshipment points. The bakery "Khlibnyi Dim" owned by city council member Oleksandr Ivanov is located at number 125 on this street.
The correspondent visited the site of the upcoming repairs and inspected the condition of the road in the neighborhood known locally as Baranovka. This is an outskirts of the city where traffic is much busier than people, with a large number of stray dogs.
The repairs will be carried out from the intersection of Heroiv Azovstal and Zaporizka streets. According to Google Maps, the final repair site is about 500 meters away. A few meters of the asphalt surface are in more or less normal condition, and then numerous potholes and pits begin to appear, which vehicle drivers have to drive around like cones on a training ground while performing coordination exercises. Another few meters is a section of concrete slabs, and the rest is off-road without any kind of surface, with a heterogeneous terrain.
As stated in the tender documents, the contractor's workers will remove the old asphalt layer, arrange a base of sand and gravel mixtures, and then a leveling layer of asphalt concrete mixture. The warranty period for the work performed is 3 years.
The repairs must be completed by December 20 this year. The auction to select a contractor is scheduled for November 25.
