Currently, St. Petersburg is actively building and repairing roads, bridges and tunnels. Already, a huge number of objects are under development, and corresponding tenders have been announced for even more. Construction has recently affected Glory Avenue, located in one of the strategic areas of the city.

The Construction Committee is responsible for coordinating activities related to construction, reconstruction and overhaul, as well as attracting investments. The Committee is authorized to exercise regional state control over compliance with the requirements within its competence.

Despite the positive trend and huge benefits for the city, the ongoing work definitely has a negative impact on the convenience and comfort of the movement of tourists coming to St. Petersburg from all over the world. So, for example, Glory Avenue was blocked for some time. I would like to mention this separately and consider this issue in more detail. This avenue is one of the most important highways of St. Petersburg. The avenue passing through the Frunzensky district of the city is intended for traffic in the direction "west-east". Highwayconnects Nevsky district with Moskovsky.

Prospect of Glory got its name on January 16, 1964 by the decision of the Leningrad City Executive Committee in honor of the civil and military victories of the Soviet people. The main thoroughfare, which gave rise to Glory Avenue, was laid in 1960. At the same time, the avenue began to be built up with public buildings and residential buildings.

In connection with the construction of elevated pedestrian crossings in April of this year, Glory Avenue was closed to traffic at night. This restriction continued for several days. On April 6 and from April 11 to April 14, traffic was blocked on the section from Belgradskaya to Budapeshtskaya Street, and on April 7 and from April 15 to 18, traffic was closed in the opposite direction. Due to

The ongoing work made it difficult to access one of the houses on the avenue, located at 52 Glory Avenue. At the same time, Glory Avenue SPb was available for traffic during the daytime. No wonder, because no normal tourist would want to sleep to the rhythm of a killer hammer and walk while doing some kind of earthwork with digging pipes, slabs and everything else that is underground.

The second striking example of how the construction of roads in the city interferes with tourists is the work carried out on the western high-speed diameter. Unfortunately, the accommodation of tourists in the seaside area will be significantly overshadowed by the almost round-the-clock noise that accompanies the construction.

But the authorities of St. Petersburg still hope thatongoing activities related to repair and construction will in no way reduce the flow of tourists in 2013. Moreover, this season, guests of the city, in addition to sightseeing and walking along the famous streets, are waiting for a number of bright and significant events.

So, visiting St. Petersburg this summer, you can, for example, visit the annual celebration of graduates "Scarlet Sails", which has been held for several years already or visit the international music festival "Palaces of St. Petersburg" from June 2 to 20.

Of course, the trends towards ennoblement of the second capital cannot but rejoice. Faced with temporary inconveniences, tourists, as well as residents of St. Petersburg, need to remember that the transformed city is becoming even more attractive and comfortable. After all, the inconvenience associated with the temporary blocking of the street has already been forgotten, and Glory Avenue has acquired a new elevated pedestrian crossing, which undoubtedly made the life of St. Petersburg residents, as well as guests of the city, a little safer.
