"Now the upper structure of the double-track railway through the Kerch Strait is being formed simultaneously from two banks: the brigades are moving towards each other," the TASS reports.
At the moment, almost 22 km of the 38 km rail grid has been laid on the bridge. As expected, the railway and the approaches to it will work in December 2019.
At the end of March it was reported that the builders of the Crimean Bridge connected the shores of the Crimea and Taman with all the railway spans.
As noted, this is 160 thousand tons of steel structures on 307 supports. At the same time, more than 6 km of spans are located above the water area, the rest - over land areas (Spit and the island of Tuzla).
