However, even on the most modern highways, drivers encounter potholes, incorrect markings, or problems with toll sections. In such cases, it comes to the rescue Avtodor support and service center — a single service for receiving applications, complaints and consultations.

In this article we will look at how to properly interact with the center: from filing a complaint about the road surface to issuing travel passes through the system "Plato". We have collected relevant ones for 2026 contacts, step-by-step instructions and life hacks that will save your time. We’ll also tell you what problems you can solve yourself without contacting support.

1. What problems does the Avtodor support center solve?

The company's contact center accepts requests by six main categories:

• 🛣️ Road surface defects: holes, cracks, potholes, lack of markings or signs.
• 💳 Problems with the Platon system: debit errors, transponder blocking, technical failures.
• 🚧 Violations during repairs: failure to meet deadlines, poor quality work, lack of detours.
• 📄 Documentary issues: loss of payment receipts, errors in vehicle data.
• 🚨 Emergencies: congestion due to accidents, collapse of fences, trees falling onto the roadway.
• 📢 Suggestions for improvement: ideas for streamlining traffic, installing new signs or lighting.

For example, if a pothole has formed on a street in your area, the complaint should be sent to the city administration, and not to Avtodor.
