On this March 1, said the head of the Road Service in the Kharkov region Eugene Zrazhevets. According to him, over the past 10 years in the region for the first time there was such a strong cyclone.

"The second day at a temperature of minus 10 degrees (and sometimes to minus 18) the wind speed reaches 25 meters per second, there is a lot of snow. It is expected that the element will subside today in the afternoon. We will prepare for the bad weather on Saturday, "- said Zrazhevets.

On this site two shifts are operated by eight cars, which periodically pierce drifts to skip columns of trucks.

On the Merefa-Lozovaya-Pavlograd road, the eastern wind sweeps snowdrifts, this problem is also being solved. On the road Kharkiv-Krasnograd-Pereshchepino there is a complex site, there works the technique of oblautodor.

According to Zrazhevets, due to the joint work with the police, the schedule of the waggons was adjusted, which made it possible to avoid restrictions in their movement. Clearing the snow helped rescue equipment: two engineering machines based on the tank.
