The leadership of the Vitebsk region checked the readiness of the main facilities for the Forum of Regions
Among the first was the construction site of the surgical building of the Vitebsk Regional Hospital. This project, although not among those announced for the Forum of Regions, is the largest and most socially significant for the northern region of Belarus.
The working group also visited the Vitebsk Airport, and assessed the progress of reconstruction work on Victory Square, the "Vitebsk" Concert Hall, the Summer Amphitheater, and the "Vitebsk" Hotel.
Alexander Subbotin, speaking about the readiness of the hotel, noted that all work is being carried out according to the deadlines previously set by the regional and city authorities.
- We are on schedule, but the process is tight. According to the plans, the facility was supposed to be completed in a year and a half, but we aim to finish it in 6-7 months. Therefore, we are attracting more people and organizing work in several shifts.
The Chairman of the Regional Executive Committee emphasized that there are many construction sites in Vitebsk now. Each of them requires attention and the resolution of additional issues, not accounted for either during design or at the start of work. But even despite some issues, the head of the region is confident that Vitebsk will be fully prepared for the Forum of Regions.
- The Forum is a celebration and a grand event for our wonderful city and for the Union State. It will become a starting point for further development and for improving order at a more intensive pace. We will definitely make Vitebsk better, more beautiful, and cozier.
