Winter roads are winter roads that are temporary in nature and their construction takes place directly from the snow cover. Complex construction of roads with the use of optimizations created for temporary and economic efficiency, improving the quality of the final result, will increase the effectiveness of decisions made during the construction of winter roads. Improving the efficiency of detailed factors in the construction of winter roads, which affect the result of further work of calendar construction, will allow for faster delivery of materials, personnel and equipment to hard-to-reach objects, within the conditions of the Far North. Winter roads are the most profitable solutions in tundra conditions, since the method of using air transport to deliver materials, equipment and workers is economically unprofitable and less safe. Therefore, the timely construction of winter roads is so important for remote regions.
