Dozens of vendors took the pedestrian zone.
The controversial construction site near the metro station “Heroes of Dnepr”. The construction of three-storey shopping Mall with an area of 16 thousand square meters began as a “chemical soil strengthening” over the station subway. During this time, workers demolished the old underground exits the “circle” in the direction of Obolonskyi Avenue, and the site has grown and captured part of the sidewalks. Local residents have repeatedly protested against the work, but their demands were not heard. From the former “circle” is not gone. Now here rise the three semi-circular buildings of the future shopping center, which is expected to finish next year.
Yesterday at the station was a bustle of activity. Some of the builders have erected the third floor of the Mall, others were building the subways. All of the pedestrian zone near the construction site was occupied by dozens of traders, expanding on the shelves of vegetables, fruits and meat, and under stroysibprom appeared a garbage dump of empty boxes, cartons and waste. Narrow underpass from the market, leading to the metro station “Heroes of Dnepr”, also tightly lined with shopping stalls.
Pedestrians and then flew at each other, maneuvering between the shelves of candy, glasses, shoes. However, the real “hell” began at the entrance to the only working lobby of the station (the second closed). In the transition metal sheathed, there is practically no air on the ceiling and can see the hole, covered with boards. “The heat here is almost unbearable. Wait, when this hell is over”, — complains Mr. Oleg.
In the company-Builder to comment on the progress of construction, we refused. However, on its website said that now the construction of the frame of the shopping center and reconstruction of underground passages No. 3 and No. 4, and all work is completed on time and strictly in accordance with the schedule.
While the construction of the project “Heroes of Dnepr” is in full swing at the end station of light rail No. 3 “Ring road” on the Ave. began to dismantle the unfinished shopping center with tunnels for trams, which promised to open next year. “Construction and dismantling, we are not engaged. All work is the investor. We do not have information why work has begun on dismantling”, — told us in KP “Kyivpastrans.”
