«The ambulance refuses to go», the residents of the village near Snihurivka ask to repair the road О15-19-01

Residents of the village of Tamaryne in the Mykolayiv region, which is 20 kilometers from Snihurivka, complain about the condition of the O15-19-01 road. According to them, due to numerous potholes, the ambulance from Snihurivka refuses to come to calls.

Local residents told the journalist NikVesti about this.

«We have a strong off-road road to Snihurivka, 20 kilometers. Even before the full-scale war, it was possible to somehow drive through, but now they are solid pits. The ambulance does not come here, it refuses, they ask to take the patient to the bridge over Ingulets. Someone will reach the bridge, someone will not, says one of the residents of Tamaryne,» Olha Mykytina.

The woman adds that in dry weather it is still possible to reach Snihurivka by a dirt road, but during the rain it becomes impossible.

«As long as the weather is dry, we drive on a country road. If it rains, it will be impossible to get to the city at all,» she said.

According to the residents of Tamaryne, public transport has not been going to the village for several years. Local residents, who have their own transport, agree to drive their fellow villagers to the city, but one such trip costs the residents of Tamaryne a thousand hryvnias.

«In the village, there are mainly elderly people who cannot get out either to the pharmacy or to the pension. A car from the village to Snigurivka costs one thousand hryvnias. «We have completely forgotten what public transport is,» said Olha Mykytina.

Residents note that before the full-scale war, the road was graded, but due to the movement of large agricultural machinery, the road quickly deteriorated.

«Bread is delivered every other day, but when the field road is washed away after the rains, no one wants to go here. It was still bad before, but it was slightly upgraded before the war. People grow grain here, entrepreneurs transported it with trucks, and the road was damaged. We are not asking for asphalt, make us a grader again, roll it up, compact it,» local residents ask.

In the comment NikVesti, the Infrastructure Department of Mykolayiv Oblast reported that the state enterprise «Agency of Local Roads of Mykolaiv Oblast» plans to start work on this section of the road in the near future.

«This year, the repair of this road is planned, the company will start work in the near future, in particular, on the sections to Yevhenivka and Tamaryne,» noted director of management Serhii Sikorskyi.

According to him, capital repairs of the road are not yet planned, but potholes should be covered with white crushed stone as part of operational maintenance.

«The work should be completed by mid-November. It will not be a major repair, but operational maintenance, a white concrete version, but the passage will be provided,» added Serhii Sikorskyi.

We will remind, emergency medical workers of Ochakiv hospital complain about the condition of the road T-15-07 Mykolaiv-Parutyne-Ochakiv, in particular, the section between Ochakiv and the village of Kutsurub. The doctors twice had to give birth in an ambulance because they did not have time to get to the hospital in time.

Previously, residents of the village of Mostove, in the Mykolaiv region, also complained about the poor condition of the road. Through the potholes, emergency medical teams cover 25 kilometers to the village in over an hour and a half.
