Governor of Arkhangelsk region Tsibolsky - on the introduction of a state of emergency:
Signed a decree to introduce a regional emergency regime from November 10. The decision was made after the downing of freight train cars in Vilgodsky district, where there remains a threat of the railway bridge collapsing. The Minister of Transport of the Arkhangelsk Region, Sergey Rudnev, will lead the elimination of the consequences.
The emergency zone included eight municipalities - Vilgodsky, Velsky, Konoshsky, Kotlasky, Lansky and Ostiansky districts, as well as Kuriazhma and Kotlas.
I instructed the Regional Ministry of Transport, together with the Northern Railway, to arrange for a rhythmic transportation of passengers and cargo between the Solvichgavesk and Wild stations. Passengers on delayed trains are now transferred by bus.
