For the fourth time, the contractor has missed the deadlines for the repair of Bohoyavlenskyi Avenue in Mykolaiv: two out of three sections of the road have been repaired

The contractor, which is engaged in the repair of the road along Bohoyavlenskyi Avenue in the Korabelny district of Mykolaiv, has missed the deadline for the work for the fourth time.

Ihor Nabatov, deputy director of the Department of Housing and Communal Services, reported this in a comment to NikVesti.

— We have three plots. The first one — from the entrance to the city and to Novobudivna Street. The asphalt surface has been completely laid there, and a contractor is currently working on the technical lane. There it is necessary to install the sides and the technical strip in the form of tiles. The second section is to the bridge over the Vitovka River. This section is completely completed: the technical lane, the surface, and the sides. The third section — from Street 295 of the Rifle Division to Shirokobalskyi Bridge. The contracting organization is already completing the installation of the sides and after that will be able to begin the installation of the asphalt concrete surface. In order to do this, weather conditions are also needed, and to complete the issues related to the boards, — said Ihor Nabatov.

According to the additional agreement, the contractor had to complete the repair of the road by November 15. However, since the work has not been completed, the Department of Housing and Communal Services is going to enter into a new additional agreement.  

— As for the second section, most likely, no — it is completed. Regarding the second section, no, because it is actually completed. But there will probably be an additional agreement on the third section. Because the weather conditions recently knocked the contracting organization out of the schedule a little, — said Ihor Nabatov.

At the same time, he added, the Housing and Social Services Department has comments to the contracting organization regarding the quality of some works. If they are not removed within the set time, the contractor is planned to be fined.

— You know, we will see it after fulfilling all the terms of the contract. Because if we are talking about the second and first sections, then the department has questions for the contracting organization regarding the arrangement of the boards. Because not all boards were installed in accordance with the requirements of urban planning legislation. There are works that have not been accepted and given a deadline for elimination. If this is not done, then this is the basis for the imposition of fines. Therefore, let's see how the contractor behaves, — explained Ihor Nabatov.

Earlier, NikVesti reported that the Department of Housing and Communal Services of the city council concluded a contract for the current repair of the road in the amount of 112 million 920 thousand hryvnias on Bogoyavlenskyi Avenue with the Vinnytsia enterprise «Mego LTD». Later it became known that the contracting company was disrupting the deadlines for the work. After that, the «anti-corruption» department of the city council threatened the contractor with a fine.

This firm actively worked in the Kherson region. Subsequently, the publication «Nashi Hroshi» reported that the police are investigating the abuse of official position by officials of the Kherson regional administration and the «Local Roads of the Kherson region». In the course of the pre-trial investigation, it was established that within the framework of the «Major construction» program, the «Local Roads of the Kherson Region» State Government concluded a number of agreements regarding the repair of roads with «Buildgroup» LLC for a total amount of 62.89 million hryvnias and «Mego LTD» LLC — for 280.03 million.

After that, on August 14, the Housing and Communal Services Department reported that the contractor had already missed the deadline for the work for the second time. Thus, as of mid-August 2023, the repair of three sections of Bohoyavlenskyi Avenue was completed by only 30-35%.
