PJSC Lukoil has opened two new multifunction filling stations at the Moscow - Saint Petersburg highway. The installations were built with support of Russia Highways State Company and with the concession holder for the head section of the M11 “Neva” highway, North-West Concession Company LLC.

The service stations feature bigger sitting zones and new interior design, as well as the self-service system that allows customers order dishes from the café besides paying for fuel and goods from the station shop, no assistance required. The company also introduced a wireless beeper system to notify clients remotely that their orders are ready. 

Moreover, the adjacent territory features workout zones, children playgrounds, picnic areas, and a summer café, as well as parkings for cars, trucks, and buses. The roadway paving used at the filling stations is especially durable and resistant, as it is made of rubber-bituminous concrete developed by the firm’s specialists.

Both forecourts are located at the 23​rd km along the road towards Sheremetyevo airport and on the way back towards Moscow. They were built under the agreement on creating road infrastructure and improving quality of service for road users and commissioned under Lukoil's programme of renewing its retail network, expanding the number of services and non-fuel goods provided to the customers. The programme aims at improving the standards of service to create a friendly environment for the chain’s clients.

The grand opening was attended by Vagit Alekperov, President of Lukoil, Marcel Vial, member of the Board of Directors of NWCC, Lortiua Gilan, Director General of NWCC, and Vyacheslav Petushenko, Chairman of the Management Board of Avtodor State Company. ​

​Lukoil had earlier opened 4 multifunction filling stations at the M-11 highway, at the road section between the cities of Tver and Saint Petersburg. In total, the company reconstructed 64 filling complexes in Moscow and the Moscow region between 2020 and 2021.
