A four lane, 500 km divided highway connecting Mariupol, Berdyansk, Kherson, and Mykolaiv, would cut today’s eight hour truck drive to five hours in the early 2020s. That vision of a modern east-west ‘autobahn’ linking Ukraine’s Azov Sea ports with Black Sea ports was presented Tuesday by Infrastructure Minister Volodymyr Omelyan in Kherson. Omelyan’s goal is a feasibility study this year and construction next year.
