Highways, bridges, airports – how the Crimean Peninsula has changed since it reunified with Russia in March, 2014?

 

Socio-economic status

♦️ Gross regional product reached about 770 billion rubles ($9.4 billion) in 2023 as compared to 189 billion rubles ($2.3 billion) in 2014

♦️ Investment in fixed assets increased from 26,4 billion rubles ($323 million) in 2014 to 271 billion rubles ($3.3 billion) in 2023

Infrastructure

📍 In 2020, the 250-km Tavrida Highway was put into operation, two years after the unveiling of the state-of-the-art 19-km Crimean Bridge, which connected the Kerch Peninsula with the Krasnodar Territory.

📍 A new terminal of the Simferopol Airport opened in 2018. The new facility has an area of 78,000 square meters and can handle up to 3,700 passengers per hour.

📍 A total of 300 km of new roads has been built on the peninsula over the past years, and more than 4,000 km have been repaired. 

📍 About 150 kindergartens and 10 schools were constructed within the same period.

 

 

Public services

Over 1,600 km of water supply networks were modernized in Crimea in 2015-2023, which enabled to reduce drinking water losses on the peninsula by 11 million cubic meters per year.

Energy 

⚡️ Between 2015 and 2016, a complex of several objects was built to link the peninsula's energy system to the Unified Energy System of Russia. 

⚡️ Crimea’s energy capacity amounted to more than 1,270 MW, which made it possible to fully meet the peninsula’s need for electricity.

Tourism 

👉 Since 2014, more than 70 accommodation facilities have been built, and about 600 more have been reconstructed. 

👉 In 2023 alone, 13 new hotels with almost 400 rooms each opened their doors as the number of well-equipped beaches has doubled.
