Klitschko was dressed as Ded Moroz.

Today, December 28, traffic was opened on the Shulyavsky Bridge in Kyiv. Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko published a corresponding video broadcast on Facebook.

The mayor arrived at the opening on a quad bike, dressed in a Ded Moroz costume, shouted "Let's go!" and ceremonially opened traffic.

After this, Klitschko gave a short briefing for journalists.

On the eve, the Shulyavsky Bridge was tested. Klitschko stood under the bridge with the builders during the tests.

In summer 2015, the Shulyavsky overpass was recognized as dangerous and in need of urgent repair, and on February 27, 2017, the pedestrian part of the bridge partially collapsed. In April 2019, the overpass structures were dismantled.
