The document discusses the state of forest transportation networks in Ukraine. It notes that about 4,000 km of forest roads were constructed from 2007-2014, increasing the total length by 6%. However, this is still much less than European countries, which have 40-55 km of roads per 1,000 hectares compared to Ukraine's 7.7 km. The development of forest infrastructure is a government priority, but Ukraine still needs about 250,000 additional km of forest roads to reach European standards. The document outlines the stages and techniques for forest road construction in Ukraine.

2. About 4,000 km of forest roads were
constructed in 2007-2014, which increased
their total length is 6%
3. The solution to the problem of forest
infrastructure in Ukraine
One of the main problem of forestry of Ukraine’s
forestry is insufficiently developed forest infrastructure

4. The construction of forest roads
• The total length of forest
roads in Ukraine is about 74
thousand km.
• The density of automobile
roads in Ukraine - 7.7 km
per 1 thousand ha.
• This is 5-7 times less than
the best European
indicators
• There are 40-55 km of roads
per one thousand ha in
Austria, Germany,
Switzerland, France
5. The development of forest infrastructure is a
priority of the government
• The need for construction of
forest roads in Ukraine makes
up about 250,000 km
• If you build a 3 thousand km of
forest roads in Ukraine every
year, the European indicators
level will be reached in 75 years

27. At the end of each forest road built in Finland there is a
"loop" for logging vehicles to turn

1500 m above sea level

40. Construction of forest roads in Ukraine was
started in 2007
• 60 million USD was allocated from the budget
for building forest roads in 2007
• For the money in that year 204 km of paved
forest roads were built, including:
• - in The Carpathians -164 km
• - in Polissya - 40 km
41. State funded construction of forest roads
in Ukraine
• In 2007 – 60 mln. UAH .;
• In 2008 - 160 mln. UAH., including:
• - 70 mln. UAH - construction of forest roads;
• - 90 mln. UAH - restoration of forest roads
damaged by flood in the Carpathians;
• 2009 – No funds allocated from the budget;
• 2010 -10 mln. UAH - construction of fire-
prevention forest roads;
• 2011 -110 mln. UAH .;
• 2012 -2013 - No funds allocated from the budget
42. Stages of a forest road construction in the plains
43. Stages of a forest road construction on
marshes
44. Stages of a forest road construction in the
mountains
78. Soil "Sorting" during the roadbed
construction of the forest roads
Under the fertile soil or peat there is
always a layer of sand or clay
mineral soils, sometimes with
inclusions of stone, gravel.
So, we “change” fertile soil with mineral
layer and move the fertile layer (humus,
peat) into the ditch on the sides and
reserves, where from the mineral soil was
removed for the roadbed construction.
81. The fertile layer we move to the ditches, slopes and side
reserves, and the "mined" mineral soil we use to build the
roadbed.
This way is several times cheaper and faster than bringing
sand for the roadbed construction
83. We build the roadbed of sand, and move the peat to
the slopes, ditches and side reserves, where the sand
was extracted from.
84. When the thickness of the peat layer is over 0.5
meter and the groundwater level is high the
roadbed is built of imported sand, after the peat
has been removed.
Peat can be immediately loaded on trucks and transported. When the peat contains a lot
of moisture it can be stored in the right of way and removed after draining the moisture, or
can be flatten in the roadbed slopes, roadside ditches and reserves, where the material for
the roadbed has been taken from.
85. Examples of roadbed in the swamp built of imported
soil on the basis after the peat has been removed
86. During the roadbed construction "production standards" must be
observed and the correct slope should be shaped from the very
beginning
87. During the roadbed construction "production standards"
must be observed and the correct slope should be
shaped from the very beginning
127. Experimental model of geographic information system for
forest roads inventory
Created by UkrHirLis together with NLTUU and "Ukrderzhlisproekt" for State enterprise
"Tsumanske forestry" based on ArcQGIS. It is planned to use this model as a basis for
organizing the inventory of forest roads during forest management.
Involves the use of electronic maps of forest plantations, ortho photos, GIS database and
digital maps of forest roads, descriptive information of separate buildings and their photos
128. • In 2013 Ukraine achieved the rate of forest road
construction per unit of forest area that had been
maintained in Finland during the last 50 years,
leaving behind Russia in this issue even in
absolute terms.
• Achieved rates should be preserved and in future
we have to build at least 1,500 km of forest roads
annually
• We now have everything necessary for this -
knowledge, experience, equipment, technology,
work system, political will and ability to earn
money
129. Indexed plan of forest road construction in
accordance with harvested volume
• Planed volume of building roads by lisgosp`s:
– 2007 – 1 km for every 50 000 m3 harvested
– 2008 – 1 km for every 40 000 m3 harvested
– 2009 – 1 km for every 30 000 m3 harvested
– 2010 – 1 km for every 25 000 m3 harvested
– 2011 – 1 km for every 20 000 m3 harvested
– 2012 – 1 km for every 15 000 m3 harvested
– 2013 – 1 km for every 12 500 m3 harvested
– 2014 and later – 1 km for every 10 000 m3 harvested
130. Results
• From 2007 till 2014 , 3980 km of forest roads was
constructed in Ukraine, include:
– In 2011 was constructed - 440 km, among them:
• 100 km financed by State budget;
• 340 km financed by own money of lisgosp`s;
– In 2012 was constructed 942 km,
– In 2013 was constructed 1132 km,
– In 2014 was constructed 694 km, (doesn't fits a norm
because of war in Ukraine)
(in 2012 - 2014 all construction financed by own money of lisgosp`s)

131. Economic return
• Investments in forestry roads, built in
operational woods, as a rule returned from 3
to 5 years,
• In some cases these period was reduced to 1
year,
• In semi-operational woods economic return
counted not only by price but also with its
social and ecological advantages
