Running Deer Interchange in Nizhnevartovsk Closed for 11 Months
The Running Deer interchange on the Nizhnevartovsk–Izluuchinsk road is closed until December 31, 2026.
In Nizhnevartovsk, from February 5, a major overhaul of the overpass on the Eastern Bypass highway begins. During the work, the overpass and the Running Deer interchange will be fully closed, the city administration reports.

The completion date is December 31, 2026. The work will be carried out by Mostostroy-11, which built the second bridge over the Ob near Surgut and the interchange itself. The contract for overpass repair on the Nizhnevartovsk–Izluuchinsk road is worth 278 million rubles (approximately $3.1 million at current exchange rates).
Alternate route plan for the interchange closure.
The work will cover a 64-meter stretch. The old bridge will be dismantled, and a new one will be built: the contractor must install supports, mount span structures, and install drainage.
Drivers are asked to plan detours in advance, as the interchange will be closed for almost 11 months.
Earlier we reported that drivers in KMAO were warned about a heavy snowstorm and snow dunes on the roads on February 5.
