        It is an old Soviet design. Many countries in the old Soviet block states have this. I just about did a one legger down them a couple times in Uzbekistan.

          Is it supposed to be a storm runoff ditch? Like I’ve seen plenty of ditches, but never a vertical slot. That shot looks like a death trap.

            It’s a storm runoff ditch. They are about 20-30cm wide and 0.5-1m deep.

            Gotta pay attention when walking around them.

          Wouldn’t be surprised to see a road like that in Ukraine, too. Especially in older towns that haven’t renovated the infrastructure
