History

In around 1990, a bridge was built, the opening was not until 2002 and then the starting point of lampposts installed in 2001. In 2002, the interchange was under construction, and shortly after disconnecting southbound traffic for one month, the beltway opened. It also disconnected traffic to Vrachnaiika for about half a year until it was repaired. It passes on the western part of the community and now forms a communal boundary of Roitika
