Governor of the Sakhalin region, Valery Limerenko, during a working trip to the South Kuril region, discussed key issues of the island's development with the residents of Shikotan. Special attention was paid to transportation. Helicopter communication with Kunashir has been restored, and in 2027 they plan to replace the current aircraft with a new Mi-171. Sea transport is carried out according to a schedule; There is still no further need for flights. In Malokurilskaya, Studencheskaya Street will be completely renovated next year. Before starting the work, it is necessary to improve the bus service, including on Lasenia Street, and ensure traffic safety. It was decided to strengthen the emergency services: send a fire engine to the village, create a 24-hour ambulance station and provide transportation for doctors. We will also be ordered to equip a waiting room for passengers at sea and to solve the problem of connecting the residential buildings to the Internet by the end of the year. There were also questions regarding support for Kuril residents studying at Sakhalin State University. Some of the problems were solved on the spot; The rest of the requests were forwarded to the relevant departments to prepare answers as soon as possible. For remote islands, it is especially important that the direct dialogue with the authorities culminates in concrete changes in daily life. This is exactly the rule by which Governor Valery Limerenko is guided. Subscribe to Kas&ra region's main political channel on MAX / Telegram.
