North-Eastern Chord

The North-Eastern Chord (Russian: Северо-Bосточная Xорда, romanized: Severo-Vostochnaya Khorda), abbreviated as CBX, is a motorway in Moscow that was completed and opened on September 22, 2022.

The 29 kilometres (18 mi) motorway starts from the south end of the Moscow-Saint Petersburg motorway to along the Little Ring of the Moscow Railway, and ends at the Veshnyaki-Lyubertsy interchange with the Moscow Ring Road (MKAD), where east-bound the expressway gives access to Kosinskaya Highway and ultimately the M12 highway. The motorway links the Northern Administrative Okrug and the South-Eastern Administrative Okrug and will help unload traffic at the MKAD by 20—25% and redistribute traffic flows at the Third Ring Road, Shchelkovsky highway, Entuziastov highway, Ryazansky Avenue, and Volgogradsky Avenue.
