The famous Lakinskoe standing will sink into oblivion to the delight of drivers or not? The reconstruction of a large section of the road, which paralyzed the M7 highway on the outskirts of Lakinsk, has been completed, but a new repair on the next section is due in 2017. So the question of how to get around Lakinsk remains relevant, although the wording is not entirely accurate.
Lakin standing
This phrase has already turned into an idiom. A hot topic in automotive forums, social media groups where motorists gather throughout 2016.
Due to the reconstruction of the 11-kilometer section of the road, the M7 highway near the small town of Lakinsk has become a byword. The traffic jam here did not dissolve even at night.
The happiest managed to get away with standing for half an hour, most of them hung out for 2-5 hours.
It all started long before Lakinsk, both from Moscow and from Vladimir. The stream did not become less day or night, or inweekdays or weekends.
Concerned drivers themselves were looking for detours through the fields, along the city outskirts. There were also official versions of the detour recommended by the Ministry of Emergency Situations.
For the time being, the problem has been resolved with the end of construction, but will drivers be relieved for long?
Renovation of the new section will begin soon. And even if, according to the forecasts of the road builders, this will not lead to the formation of new traffic jams, similar to last year, everyone is used to the fact that not all promises in our country can be trusted. Moreover, in the Lakinsk region, as experienced motorists say, something is constantly being repaired.
The authorities promise that the repair of the new section will not affect traffic, and as a result, new modern exits, sidings, forks will appear that will completely solve the traffic jam problem, and the section is only 4 kilometers away.
Drivers also predict that a traffic jam is inevitable, moreover, the repair of the bridge over the Kirzhach River will begin on the highway, which threatens with another traffic jam. There are fears that now instead of Lakinsky there will be Kirzhach standing, or even both at once.
Insuring against the Lakinskaya traffic jam, you need to keep in mind the detour routes.

From Moscow side:
Turn in the field on the primer after Lukoilovskoye refueling. When driving, keep to the left. After about 5 km, the private sector will begin, and there is already an exit to the highway.

Further, keeping to the right, pass through the railway crossing, moving in the direction of Sushnevo-1, turning left, get to Metenevo through the forest in the direction of Zhokhovo. After the dam, asph alt will begin, which will lead to Lakinsk.
From the side of Vladimir at the beginning of Lakinsk, you can turn onto Mira Street and move parallel to the highway along the outskirts of Lakinsk. Navigator maps will help here, experienced drivers do not advise relying on the device itself.
Another option proposed by a driver experienced on this route is as follows: before Vorsha you need to turn to Alexandrov, then to Stavrovo, and then turn left again to Lakinsk. The road will lead to the last traffic light before the narrowing of the road. 200 meters and access to a two-row. The detour takes a maximum of 20 minutes.
