Head of the State Traffic Safety Inspectorate for the Sverdlovsk Region Yury Demin complained at the meeting of the government today about the work of Oleg Melekhov, Deputy Head of the Road Administration.

The colonel said that every year the road management "is eliminated from monitoring the work of the contractor responsible for cleaning snow". To confirm his words, he cited a concrete example on the road Revda - Degtyarsk - Kurganovo, when the traffic police after the snowfall was forced to restrict the movement of public transport.

"There is a deputy chief Melekhov in the highway administration who can not be driven out onto the road in any way so that he can go and monitor her condition," he said and added that these were not the first complaints about his work.

"Is it irreplaceable or something? "- Asked the governor of the Sverdlovsk region Evgeny Kuyvashev.

Vasily Starkov, the minister of transport and road economy of the Sverdlovsk region, answered the head of the region that "rotation arrangements have already been provided". During a briefing in a conversation with journalists, he added that all departments should work for the safety of roads.

"And what Demin said is a concrete example. We have carried out all the necessary measures, this will not happen again, "he stated his position.

Claims from Demin arose and to the enterprise "Sverdlovskavtodor", which concluded a large number of state contracts (for winter maintenance of 60% of regional roads and federal routes passing through the territory of the region). At the same time, it is not possible to remove federal and regional routes from Sverdlovskavtodor.
