Ukraine Builds Protective Structures for Over 100 Critical Sites

The State Agency for Restoration and Infrastructure Development continues to build protective structures at more than 100 facilities, with completion planned within two to three months.

The head of the State Agency for Restoration and Infrastructure Development, Serhiy Sukhomlyn, announced these plans on the air.

“We understand that these are large capital structures made of concrete, metal, and other materials. Under normal conditions, one project takes several months. We do not have that much time; the government has set a task – to do it quickly. Two to three months is the deadline by which all these facilities must be built”

Current scope and scale of works

Currently, protection construction is underway at more than 100 facilities, which were identified primarily by regional military administrations and the heads of regional military administrations in frontline regions. They are coordinated with the Ministry of Energy. The focus is on small and relatively small transformer substations, some of which affect the essential services of large cities, including water-supply networks.

According to Sukhomlyn, at most of the facilities contractors are already carrying out construction work.

As is known, the State Agency for Restoration has begun constructing protective facilities for more than 100 critical infrastructure facilities across Ukraine.
