Primorsky district is one of the largest city's districts, with a population of over 580,000 people and about 500,000 inhabitants (10% of St. Petersburg's population) in the interchange catchment area. It is also the leading district in terms of new construction and birth rate, with 20% of new housing built in Primorsky District.
Transport interchange with WHSD at the intersection with Shuvalovsky Prospekt will relieve the load on Savushkina Street and Planernaya Street, ensure accessibility of residential areas of Kamenka and Yuntolovo, and in future, after the breakdown of Shuvalovsky Prospekt to Primorskoye Shosse, will create a transport link between Primorskoye Shosse - WHSD - Parashutnaya Street, providing additional exit from Primorskoye Shosse to the northern part of the city.
At the same time, the new interchange will reduce the traffic load from the interchange between the WHSD and Bogatyrsky Prospekt, which is currently the most in-demand on the Western High-Speed Diameter.
