Overview
- Prime Minister Yuliia Svyrydenko said the reserve‑fund money will finance pothole work on state roads with heavy traffic and in frontline regions after a meeting with Vice Prime Minister Oleksii Kuleba and Recovery Agency head Serhiy Sukhomlyn.
- Officials stressed the works are operational safety fixes rather than capital reconstruction, with completion targeted by June 1.
- Pothole repairs have already started on international and national highways, including in combat‑adjacent areas.
- On March 2 the government reported current surface repairs covering more than 3.5 million square meters had begun.
- The Recovery Agency cites a structural gap of 51.3 billion UAH in needs versus roughly 4.6 billion UAH provided, as NABU and SAP pursue corruption cases linked to past road contracts, including a suspected 392 million UAH scheme in Dnipropetrovsk region.
