A 14-kilometer gas pipeline was built as part of the state program "Comfortable Housing and Favorable Environment". The agro-town of Ostrovno became the ninth out of 12 settlements in Beshenkovichi District to be supplied with natural gas. Earlier in 2022, the villages of Nizhnee Krivino and the agro-towns of Rzhavka and Budilovo received blue fuel. The total length of supply gas pipelines built in the district this year alone exceeded 33 kilometers. 8 apartment buildings (50 apartments) have been converted to natural gas, and the possibility of gasification has become available for more than 1000 private households, social sphere facilities, as well as a number of farms and grain drying complexes.
Incidentally, over the past two decades, almost 6 thousand kilometers of gas pipelines have been built in the Vitebsk region, and over 200 thousand apartments in more than 360 settlements have been converted to natural gas. The emphasis is placed on the use of modern technologies.
