"The situation is sketchy": near a multi-storey building in the Korabelnyi district, the asphalt is collapsing, and beneath it - a void
Sinkhole by the entrance: asphalt "sank into the ground" and threatens vehicles
In the Korabelnyi district of Mykolaiv, near the second entrance of the building at 5 Korabeliv Avenue, residents recorded a subsidence of the road surface on April 10, 2026 and reported it in the Korabeliv.Info Telegram chat. According to local residents, a cavity has formed under the asphalt that can grow by the day and poses a real danger to vehicles and pedestrians.
Residents emphasize that the situation already appears critical: any passage of large vehicles, including delivery trucks, could lead to the complete collapse of the road section:
“If tomorrow morning some delivery truck (bread or dairy) goes to the shop – it could get stuck in that hole. The situation is scary”, – write the residents of the courtyard.
The managing company has already been notified of the problem. In turn, it must forward a request to the relevant municipal services, which should inspect the section and take measures to eliminate the collapse.
It is currently unknown what exactly caused the cavity under the asphalt — it could be either deterioration of utilities or washout of the soil. However, residents emphasize: waiting is not an option, as the situation can quickly escalate into an emergency.
