The famous Lakinsky standing will sink into oblivion to the delight of drivers or not? The reconstruction of a large section of the road, which paralyzed the M7 highway at the approaches to Lakinsk, has been completed, but new repairs on the next section will be in 2017. So the question of how to go around Lakinsk remains relevant, although the wording is not entirely accurate.
Lakinsky standing
This phrase has already turned into phraseologism. Hot topic of automobile forums, groups in social networks where motorists gather throughout 2016.
Due to the reconstruction of the 11-kilometer section of the road, the M7 highway in the vicinity of the small town of Lakinsk turned into a parable in languages. The cork here did not dissolve even at night.
The happiest managed to get off with a half-hour standing, while the majority hung for 2-5 hours.
It all started long before Lakinsk from both Moscow and Vladimir. The stream did not become smaller day or night, neither on weekdays, nor on weekends.
Concerned drivers themselves were looking for detour routes through the fields, along the city outskirts. There were official versions of the detour recommended by the Ministry of Emergencies.
Currently, the problem has been resolved with the completion of construction, but for how long will drivers experience relief?
In the near future, the repair of a new site will begin. And although according to the forecasts of the road workers, this will not lead to the formation of new traffic jams, similar to last year, but everyone is used to the fact that not all promises in our country can be trusted. Moreover, in the Lakinsk region, as experienced motorists say, they are constantly repairing something.
The authorities promise that the repair of the new section will not affect the traffic, and as a result there will be new modern congresses, patrols, forks that completely solve the traffic jam problem, and the section is only 4 kilometers away.
Drivers predict that traffic jams are inevitable, moreover, the repair of the bridge across the Kirzhach River, which threatens with another congestion, will begin on the highway. There are fears that now instead of Lakinsky there will be the Kirzhach standing, or even both at once.
Making sure of Lakinsky traffic jam, you need to keep in mind the detour routes.
Official version
In the service of the Ministry of Emergencies, on the question of how to get around Lakinsk, they offer several options, moreover, they are relevant for moving towards Vladimir and towards Moscow.
Consider options for how to go around Lakinsk in the direction of Moscow.
One of the routes passes through Yuryev-Polsky, Kolchugino, then either through Alexandrov to the Kholmogory M-8 and the Sergiev-Posad bypass road to Moscow, or to Kirzhach, to the A108 highway, and from there, if desired, leave via Chernogolovka or to the highway M-7 "Volga" and to Moscow.
The second variant of travel from Vladimir to Alexandrov, along the Kolchuginsky bypass road, then, as in the previous one, through Alexandrov or Sergiev Posad.
Accordingly, the answer to the question of how to get around Lakinsk from Moscow is now clear. In reverse order for the selected option.
Unofficial versions
Unofficial versions of how to get around Lakinsk, or rather Lakinskaya traffic jam, come from motorists who often travel along this route. They generously share their tips on the forums. By the way, there are several such groups and they monitor the condition of the road and detour recommendations appear as necessary.
But one way or another, most bypass routes capture the outskirts of the city or pass along its dirt roads, which can not be overcome by any cars. Much will depend on the weather.
Consider a few of these tips.
From Moscow:
Turn in the field along the dirt road after Lukoilovsky refueling. When moving, you must adhere to the left side. After about 5 km, the private sector will begin, and there is access to the highway.
Another option is more suitable for SUVs. The road will go through the forest for several kilometers. You need to turn off the track before turning on Boldino to the gas station "Caravan". Further, keeping to the right, pass through the railway crossing, moving in the direction of Sushnevo-1, turning left, get to Metenevo through the forest in the direction of Zhokhovo. After the dam, asphalt begins, which will lead to Lakinsk.
From Vladimir’s side at the beginning of Lakinsk, you can turn onto Mira Street and move parallel to the highway on the outskirts of Lakinsk. Navigator maps will help here; experienced drivers do not recommend hoping for the device itself.
Another option proposed by an experienced driver on this highway is this: before Vorsha you need to turn to Aleksandrov, then to Stavrovo, and there again turn left to Lakinsk. The road will lead to the last traffic light before the narrowing of the road. 200 meters and exit to the double row. A detour takes a maximum of 20 minutes.
To the question of how to go around Lakinsk, there is no definite answer. The choice of path is yours.
How do regular buses go?
Regular buses during Lakinsky standing from Vladimir went through Stavrovo, and from Moscow through Kirzhach.
