Residents of Khasavyurt complained about the road conditions.
Khasavyurt residents filmed a video of the potholed road on Zavokzalnaya Street, where driving is difficult. Numerous appeals to the local administration have yielded no results, residents complained.
According to residents, Zavokzalnaya Street in Khasavyurt has been unpaved for over a year – the road is riddled with deep potholes, ruts, and ruts. Hundreds of cars drive along the street every day. Drivers are forced to avoid the potholes on the wrong side of the road or on the shoulders, creating dangerous situations.
A subscriber's video of the street's deplorable condition was published on the Telegram channel "People's Front Dagestan," which has over two thousand subscribers.
"Zavokzalnaya Street, after it rains, we sometimes have this kind of situation here," says a local resident, pointing to the mud and deep puddles that drivers try to avoid by driving into oncoming traffic.
Residents say they've previously contacted the administration, but officials are only "temporarily patching up this road." "After every rain, it all washes away again. About 300-400 meters of the road here are in this condition," a city resident explains in the video.
Motorists complain of flat tires and damaged suspension, and pedestrians also can't walk through the mud and puddles. Despite complaints, no one has undertaken repairs, say residents of Khasavyurt.
The head of the city administration, Korgoli Korgoliev, reported today on his Telegram channel on the work to temporarily fill potholes and damage to the road surface in the city.
"Repair work using asphalt concrete mix is planned to begin in early April of this year, once favorable weather conditions arrive. The work will be carried out in stages on various sections of the city's roads," he said.
"Caucasian Knot" also reported that Makhachkala residents have complained about the quality of the city's roads. In addition to Irchi Kazaka Street, where Makhachkala authorities have failed to repair a pothole for over 170 days, the city has numerous problematic roads. Activists announced the launch of the "Road Monitor" project, which aims to help officials identify and correct defects. In late February, residents of Derbent complained about an unrepaired road. According to residents, Korkmasov Street in Derbent hasn't been repaired for about 70 years. They have to bail out puddles of water so their children can get to school.
Unresolved problems with housing and communal services are causing discontent among residents of Dagestan and are provoking an increase in protest activity, stated the head of the North Caucasus Ministry of Internal Affairs. During a live broadcast on November 27, 2025, Dagestan head Sergey Melikov ignored pressing issues and gave only vague answers to questions raised. Residents of the republic were waiting for Melikov to explain the constant power and water outages, burning landfills, and rising prices for housing and communal services and transportation.
