Description
The length of the river is approximately 1.8 km.
It starts from open sources in the upper Kuchmin Yar ( Solomensky forest park ; the end of Volgogradskaya St. ) and soon goes underground again - into underground pipes, although it still partially flowed along the natural channel back in the 1960s and 70s.
Further, the river flows in collectors under Kudryashova Street, which once had the name Wet - from the name of the river.
After crossing the territory of the locomotive depot, railway tracks and auxiliary railway facilities located between the main and Northern routes, the river briefly emerges to the surface - for example, it crosses the Northern Routes in the open form, flows 100 meters in the open channel with natural banks, crosses Lybedskaya Street (a bridge is thrown across the river), then disappears briefly in a small collector no more than 50 meters long and flows into Lybed.
Not far from the confluence with Lybed, the width of the river reaches 3-4 meters in places.
