Third bridge across the Volga defended by Russia from terrorists

Construction of the third stage of the bridge across the Volga is protected by the FSB of Russia

The bridge is under construction in the Volgograd region. Its length will be more than 12 kilometers. The bridge is planned to open in 2024.

FSB officers regularly check the construction site for explosives and other dangerous objects. They control the movement of vehicles, and check the documents of workers and visitors to the construction site.

The FSB's work on the protection of the bridge

The FSB employs modern technologies to protect the construction site.

For example, a geodesic monitoring system is used to control the movement of the bridge structure. The system allows you to quickly detect any changes in the structure of the bridge and take measures to eliminate them.

The FSB also uses a non-contact inspection system to control the movement of vehicles. The system allows you to quickly and efficiently identify explosives and other dangerous objects in vehicles.

The FSB's work on protecting the bridge construction site is carried out in close cooperation with the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation, the Ministry of Emergency Situations of the Russian Federation, and other security agencies.

The importance of protecting the bridge

The bridge is a strategic facility. It will connect the two banks of the Volga and will provide a convenient connection between the regions of Central Russia and the Volga region.

Terrorist attacks on the bridge could lead to numerous casualties and damage to the economy of Russia.
The bridge is also used for the transportation of fuel and other strategic cargoes. The bridge is used by more than 1 million people a year.
