With these funds, the contractor will have to restore the roadway of streets and intra-quarter passages, as well as sidewalks, destroyed due to the repair of networks, by 31 March 2026.

As a reminder, new water treatment facilities for centralised water supply in Mykolaiv are being built at the expense of funds saved during the construction of a new water supply system. The purified water is expected to be launched in January, but the water treatment plant will be fully operational in March 2026.

Initially, Mykolaiv planned to take out an EIB loan for the construction of the new water treatment plant, with Denmark providing the remaining part as a grant. The project was supposed to take several years to implement and was supposed to help provide the city with water of European standards.

But later, Serhii Sukhomlyn, head of the State Agency for Reconstruction, said that this idea was abandoned. And it was decided to build new water treatment plants with public funds — those that were saved during the construction of a new water supply system for the city.

However, the mayor of Mykolaiv, Oleksandr Sienkevych, supports the modernisation of the new water treatment plant with a loan from the European Investment Bank, but believes that the state should pay for it.
