kscarbel2 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 KrAZ Trucks / December 19, 2016 Heavy snow and icy roads this winter in different regions of Ukraine demonstrated the need for modern new trucks to overcome the weather challeneges. In Vinnitsa region, a Renault tractor-trailer carrying a 35 metric ton load could not climb hill of road Kodyma-Peschanka near the village Studenaya, Peschanka region (the road connecting Kodyma and Peschanka is in a bad state, this causeway is not maintained by regional road maintenance service). The driver had little choice but to call up to Rescue Service for help. Rescuers of special rescue team of SRES in Vinnitsa region came to the scene. The rescuers used the KrAZ-255B off road vehicles to tow the semi-trailer truck to safe section of road. In Poltava region, SRES workers used a KrAZ truck to render assistance to 8 trucks in the same situation. Near the village of Gorodishche in the Lubny area, on the road Lubny-Chernukhi eight trucks with 12 occupants could not climb hill due to slippery road. Rescuers towed the vehicles on the hill using rope and winch of a KrAZ-255, allowing the drivers to continue on their way. Every year, specially equipped KrAZ trucks help in providing road maintenance services with required multipurpose special vehicles such as road maintenance vehicles with snow clearing, gritting and snow blowing equipment and SRES units with rescue vehicles. .
