A truck transporting an excavator tore down power lines near the “Kalinin Department Store” bus stop in Novosibirsk, causing significant traffic disruptions. The incident occurred on Bogdan Khmelnitsky Street, Zalesky Street, and Tankovaya Street.

The downed wire is currently lying on the road, forcing vehicles to navigate around it and exacerbating the traffic congestion. Motorists are advised to exercise increased caution when traveling in these areas.

This incident follows a similar event in April when a tram tore down wires near the Opera House in Novosibirsk.
