There are no sidewalks, road markings or signs. Ditches will be arranged along the road to drain water after precipitation. The customer received a positive expert report from Ukrderzhbudekpertiza in Odesa region in the fall of 2024.

The project involves the construction of new road pavement, asphalt concrete junctions and driveways, roadside reinforcement, asphalt sidewalks and pedestrian paths on both sides of the road, and tactile tile areas. The road markings will be made of cold plastic.

Bus stops with pavilions will be arranged for local residents. The exterior lighting will not be updated, as it is in good condition.

In addition, a water supply pipeline will be replaced and water lines will be relocated on Bolgradske Highway. Old water wells will be dismantled and 28 new ones will be built instead. Nine fire hydrants and five rainwater inlets will be installed.

According to the project, the overhaul will increase the road's capacity, reduce transportation costs and passenger travel time.

Also in March, the Housing and Communal Services Department of the Izmail City Council signed a contract without a tender for the current repair of the sewer collector on Kopana Balka in Izmail. The works were valued at over UAH 16 million.
