On the morning of July 21, a traffic light failed at the intersection of Kraulya and Tokarey streets. This caused a giant traffic jam on the road. According to online map measurements, its length is already more than five kilometers.
There is also a traffic jam on Chelyuskintsev Street.

“Cars have completely blocked the intersection, it’s gridlock,” map users write.
In other parts of the city, the situation is calm this morning — traffic jams at 4 points. Only on Chelyuskintsev Street is driving difficult due to an accident involving two cars. One of them was thrown onto the tram tracks after the collision, and trams stopped near the ‘First Kilometer’ stop.
