Currently Voronezh Reservoir occupies about 60 km2, being the central spine of the city, at the same time this element is excluded from urban activity. The future of Voronezh Reservoir depends on the successful integrated strategy that aims at solving water quality, ecological issues in close connection with urban issues.
