🏗🚽Sewerage couldn't keep up with developers: Uzhhorod already blocked connections for new residential complexes, but RIVERVILLE, the project of MP Petiovka's son, and other developments kept growing
🏗📈 In just 2021–the first half of 2026, over 664 thousand m² of housing were commissioned in Uzhhorod. According to calculations cited in local journalistic investigations, the city has already built or plans more than 300 multi-story buildings and 20 thousand apartments. At the same time, in 2023–2024 the volume of wastewater exceeded 50 thousand m³ per day. Uzhhorod water utility director Stanislav Kartashov admitted the situation became critical, so the company even stopped issuing technical conditions for connecting multi-apartment buildings.
🚰⚠️After reconstruction, the load was reduced to about 40 thousand m³, but the treatment plants are still operating at 80–85% of their design capacity. Despite this, the city continues to approve new development. Back in 2024, the strategic environmental assessment of the area near the RIVERVILLE residential complex by Andriy Petiovka (son of MP Vasyl Petiovka) warned about problems with the sewer system. In the end, square meters are being sold today, while infrastructure has to catch up with the development after the fact.
