Budget Savings in 2025
The State Agency for Restoration and Development of Infrastructure of Ukraine achieved significant budget savings in 2025, exceeding 13 billion Hryvnias. This became possible due to the optimization of approaches to the implementation of infrastructure projects, which, in turn, ensured increased spending efficiency.
In particular, the cost of the water pipeline project for Mykolaiv was reduced from 8.7 billion Hryvnias to 6.3 billion Hryvnias, which allowed for savings of over 2.4 billion Hryvnias. At the same time, the cost of one capital object was approximately 100 million Hryvnias, while modular structures cost around 20 million Hryvnias. Furthermore, by the end of 2025, the modernization of 10 small checkpoints is planned, saving about 1.5 billion Hryvnias.
Optimization of Critical Infrastructure Costs
The optimization of costs for protecting critical infrastructure objects allowed for savings of 8.6 billion Hryvnias. The average cost of repairing one square meter of asphalt pavement decreased to approximately 1200 Hryvnias. At the same time, from a road budget of 17.4 billion Hryvnias, it was possible to save almost 1 billion Hryvnias.
The new team of the Agency, led by Serhiy Sukhomlyn, focused on a detailed analysis of technical solutions, scope of work, and material costs, which, according to Oleksii Kuleba, was an important factor in achieving such results. The effectiveness of new approaches to managing budget funds opens up new opportunities for further modernization of Ukraine's infrastructure.
The significant savings of budget funds achieved by the State Agency for Restoration and Development of Infrastructure of Ukraine indicate positive changes in the management of state finances.

The decrease in the cost of infrastructure projects and modernization of critical infrastructure can significantly impact improving the quality of life of the population and ensuring the stable development of the country. Further steps in this area can contribute to not only economic growth but also increased public trust in state institutions.
