Russian motor traffic to increase ten times
MOSCOW, November 16 -- President Vladimir Putin thinks that the motor traffic in Russia would increase ten times by the year 2020.
"The automobile epoch in Russia began later than in other European countries, and the road infrastructure appeared to be unable to cater for the current traffic," he said at a meeting of the State Council Presidium.
"The traffic will grow, and we need large long-term investments in the construction and modernization of motorways," he said.
