In brief

Minister Mykola Kalashnyk estimated that metro services across Kyiv’s Southern Bridge could be fully restored in two to three months, provided Russian attacks cause no further damage. The city will fund the work, he said.

Kyiv’s metro services across the Southern Bridge could be fully restored in an estimated two to three months if further Russian attacks do not damage the bridge, Ukraine’s restoration, infrastructure and transport minister, Mykola Kalashnyk, told journalists, according to UNIAN.

Kalashnyk said the bridge is municipally owned and repairs will be financed from the city budget. The metro operator or an outside contractor could carry out the work, with city authorities making the final decision on how to organise it.

At the time of UNIAN’s report, green-line trains were not running between Slavutych and Vydubychi stations because Russian attacks had damaged the bridge. The cited report did not specify a calendar date for full restoration.
