Abnormally cold weather led to the appearance of a crack across the Rudnevsky bridge in the capital of Primorye. This was reported by RIA Novosti with reference to the city administration.

“Vice-Mayor Nikolai Zaitsev and specialists of the Department of Roads and Improvement are working at these minutes on the Rudnevsky Bridge of Vladivostok. There in the morning a crack appeared, the width of the entire carriageway. According to experts, due to the abnormally cold weather, the expansion joints of the bridge parted, ”the city administration said.

As the mayor's office told the journalist of the newspaper "KP-Vladivostok", traffic on the bridge has not yet been blocked. The final action plan will be drawn up when the officials receive the expert opinion of the bridge builders.

After that, an administrative case was brought against the deputy head of Vladivostok due to improper cleaning of city streets from snow and ice.
