19 September 2025 12:03
The funds allocated in the state budget are critically insufficient for the effective functioning of the country’s road sector. This was stated by Oleksiy Kuleba, Vice Prime Minister for Reconstruction of Ukraine, during the parliamentary “Hour of Questions to the Government”.
“In the budget for 2026, the Rehabilitation Agency provides UAH 12.8 billion for the maintenance of public roads. I want to emphasize that this amount is critically insufficient. Today, for the normal functioning of the road sector, we need 5-6 times more funds,”
– said the Minister.

Kuleba emphasized the strategic importance of the transportation network in times of war, especially for military needs and emergency response services. He paid special attention to the situation in the frontline regions.
“This is our logistics, including military logistics. In Mykolaiv region, this problem is most urgent. We also need roads for evacuation routes and stable operation of emergency services. We really prioritize the frontline regions in the first place… Therefore, I propose to work separately on this need,”
– added the Vice Prime Minister.
