On it you can also get to Kalyazin , Uglich , Sergiev Posad , Taldom , Moscow . The condition of the road can be assessed as good. To go to Bezhetsk you need to move along Moskovskaya Street, a quarter after the square at the monument to the heroes of the Second World War, turn left onto Kolkhoznaya Street at the T-shaped intersection. To the right, through Sovetskaya Street, there is a local road to the villages of Vasilisovo and Fedovo, and its branch through Grachi Street to the villages of Petrovskoye and Durasovo . The road to Bezhetsk, although quite broken, is quite acceptable for traffic, especially considering the repair of the pavement in the Bezhetsk district in the summer of 2000. Another local road to the villages of Nikolskoye , Brylino, Maurino starts from the crossing when leaving for Kashin and leaves to the left. From the square near the district administration (from Kashin to the right) along Starovokzalnaya street past the railway station, you can also get on the road to Durasovo . The last road branches from Moskovskaya Street (at the bus station) to the left (if you go from Kashin), and leads through the streets of Cooperative and Field to Zavidovskaya Gorka . Sovetskaya and Starovokzalnaya streets are connected to each other by Leningradskaya street, which duplicates Moskovskaya street. There are signs in the village that recommend transit through this particular kind of bypass administrative center, however, no one forbids passing Kesova Gora along Moskovskaya Street. A bypass is also being built directly from the Bezhetskaya road along Alelukhina street past Polevaya and Kooperativnaya streets to Kashinskaya (for moving). At the entrance from Bezhetsk, the signs for Kashin hang exactly on this road, built in 2009. The road is in good condition, however, most drivers go through the center, which is not forbidden. A driver who is not familiar with the geography of the village obviously should go through the center, not paying attention to the signs.
