Roads connect cities and the destinies of people. Every day, thousands of cars pass on the roads, tons of goods are transported; thanks to the streets, the economic life of cities and the cultural life of people develop. There is an opinion that Russian roads are of poor quality, that many routes require expensive annual repairs, and that Russia is far behind European countries in the development of road construction. Nevertheless, by their example, some companies prove that it is possible to defeat off-road conditions in the country and provide even the most remote corners with high-quality roads. One of these companies is JSC Novosibirskavtodor under the leadership of Dmitriy Pingasov Director of the Road Construction Department.

1. Dmitriy Pingasov: how to beat off-road
Roads connect cities and the destinies of people. Every day, thousands of cars pass on the
roads, tons of goods are transported; thanks to the streets, the economic life of cities and the
cultural life of people develop. There is an opinion that Russian roads are of poor quality, that
many routes require expensive annual repairs, and that Russia is far behind European countries
in the development of road construction. Nevertheless, by their example, some companies
prove that it is possible to defeat off-road conditions in the country and provide even the most
remote corners with high-quality roads. One of these companies is JSC Novosibirskavtodor
under the leadership of Dmitriy Pingasov Director of the Road Construction Department.
For more than twenty years, JSC Novosibirskavtodor has been engaged in a full range of works
on the construction, repair, reconstruction, and maintenance of highways and artificial road
structures. Thanks to the colossal experience and the introduction of the latest technologies,
Novosibirskavtodor JSC has become one of the leading road construction organizations
producing high-quality and safe roads.
Dmitriy Pingasov has been in charge of the road construction department of JSC
Novosibirskavtodor since 2006. During this time, his company built 225.3 kilometers of roads,
reconstructed 113.2 kilometers, and more than 7,000 kilometers of the roadway were laid for
major and current repairs. In 2021 50% of the implemented road facilities in the Novosibirsk
region were accounted for by Novosibirskavtodor JSC.
The company, led by road construction expert Dmitriy Pingasovo, is known for its innovative
technologies. According to Pingasov, it is not worth saving on quality and safety, so the
company designs high-quality roads considering modern principles and using information

reflected in the chassis of cars, so it is essential to select the types of technologies and types of
coatings by specific tasks, a particular territory, and climatic conditions of the region.
Having great expertise, Novosibirskavtodor JSC actively created and implemented new GOSTs
for the production of asphalt concrete mixtures using the volumetric-functional design method,
which is currently used as the most promising method. For each specific solution, the
company's specialists study many factors, conduct in-depth analyses, and use an integrated
approach.
According to Dmitriy Pingasov, an expert in the road transport industry, there are the main
components of success in constructing high-quality roads in the country. It is essential to build
roads in strict compliance with technical regulations, using high-quality materials, innovative
technologies, modern technology, and professional builders' involvement. Roads must be
professionally designed to suit the landscape and climatic conditions, and they must be
repaired promptly, taking into account the facility's life cycle.
Previously, the problem with roads was that there was no state funding for the road transport
industry for almost thirty years. And during this time, the congestion of roads has increased,
and the number of vehicles has increased many times. But recently, the situation has changed a
lot: funds for the construction and repair of roads began to be allocated directly from the
federal and territorial budgets, road funds, public-private partnership instruments, and the
national BKD project appeared. High-class specialists started to come to the road transport
industry; progressive ideas began to be applied, and many developments occurred, thanks to
the exchange of experience with foreign companies. The financial policy regarding road
construction is still cautious, but significant steps have been taken to develop this area.
Today, JSC Novosibirskavtodor has everything in its arsenal to create a quality product - the
company employs about four thousand qualified employees, uses modern technologies, and
introduces innovations, such as a unique automated project management system(APMS),
created under the leadership of Dmitriy Pingasov.
