Tavantolgoi-Gashuunsukhait road to be repaired www.en.montsame.mn
Ulaanbaatar /MONTSAME/ Last year, the road connecting Tavantolgoi deposit with Gashuunsukhait Mongolia-China border checkpoint carried 16.3 million tons of coal and yielded revenue of MNT 31.33 billion. Unfrotunately, the same year has seen more than 200 accidents and traffic violations that took 3 lives.
At the regular cabinet meeting, held on April 5, Tuesday, Minister of Road and Transport Development D.Ganbat introduced some intended measures toward coal transports on the above mentioned route.
The main cause of accidents enroute is the road damages, triggered by the exceeded load and flow of traffic. The road has been taking 150-250 vehicles a day. Now with the increased coal price on the global market and the increased demand, about a thousand vehicles are transporting coal on this road.
Although maintenance works are being conducted as per the schedule, the road is still in dire need to go through overhaul repair, said the Minister.
The latter was then tasked to organized partial repairs for the Tavantolgoi-Gashuunsukhiat road without blocking the traffic.
Prime Minister J.Erdenebat instructed to include multiple road companies in the road repair works in order to complete the maintenance by October, as well as to ban the use of dirt road during the repair.
