The closures will be in effect from 8:30 to 12:00 on sections of Sadovnichesky Passage, and briefly from 11:30 to 12:30 on Sadovnichesky and Ustyinsky Passages, Yauzsky and Pokrovsky Boulevards, and the Big Ustyinsky Bridge. Parking on Chistoprudny Boulevard and Belgorodsky Passage is already prohibited until 20:00.
Analytical note: According to transport experts, the temporary road blocks are part of preparations for the historic vehicle rally, which showcases Soviet‑era automotive design and attracts cultural tourists. While the event boosts heritage tourism, it inevitably creates congestion for residents and commuters who rely on those routes.
Online users are divided: many enjoy the rare sight of vintage cars on Moscow’s streets and share photos of the parade, while others express frustration over long detours and time lost. Social‑media threads show a mix of nostalgia for the past and complaints about the inconvenience.
To get around the closures, the city advises using the Metro, organized shuttle buses, or rideshare apps. Spectators are encouraged to use designated viewing areas where cars will pass.
