Traffic jams paralyse left bank of Kyiv due to Southern Bridge closure and metro restrictions

Paralysis of traffic on the left bank of the capital

The left bank of Kyiv has found itself in a difficult transport situation. The main causes were the closure of the Southern Bridge and restrictions on train services on the so-called “green” line of the metro. These events led to the formation of significant traffic jams on the district's road network.

Recommendations for drivers

To avoid long traffic queues, residents and guests of the city are advised to use the Darnytskyi Bridge as a detour. This will allow them to bypass the closed section of the Southern Bridge.

At present, no official data has been provided regarding the terms for the restoration of full traffic on the Southern Bridge and the normalisation of metro operations.
