Ukrainian roads will get plastic road markings

The advantage of such marking is obvious in everything. It lasts much longer than regular paint - up to three years. But for many people interested in regular road repairs, this is a drawback. Why? It's simple - by applying paint every year, you can count on a good "income". If the marking lasts a long time, then what can you "earn" on?

But we, as motorists, are more interested not in the well-being of corrupt officials, but in our own safety. Therefore, we vote for the innovation with both hands. After all, this marking not only lasts better, but it is also better visible, and in any weather, even in the rain.

But as always, due to the lack of budget, they decided to use it not everywhere, but only on those roads where repair is not needed. By logic, all our roads require repair, except, perhaps, the Boryspil highway. In general, where potholes will soon have to be patched or major repairs done, the marking will be applied the old way with quick-washing paint.

Road repairs in the country require 35 billion hryvnias, but the budget only includes half of the necessary funds. Where do they plan to get the remaining amount? As previously reported, the authorities plan to take a loan. It would be interesting to know how the money from the transport tax, which we pay on every liter of fuel purchased, has been spent.
