The Bishkek City Hall has determined the points where the Western and Eastern bus stations will be moved. Ulan Uezbaev, deputy head of the Transport Department of the capital’s City Hall, informed 24.kg news agency.
According to him, the idea is that suburban routes do not enter the territory of the capital at all. They should stop at bus stations, and from there people will be able to get to the city by public transport. To this end, the City Hall is now actively purchasing new buses to organize routes to different parts of Bishkek. It is planned that the traffic interval will be not more than 5 minutes.
«We have already determined points where bus stations can be moved. The Western one is proposed to be moved beyond Prigorodnoye village. There is a plot of 7 hectares, next to Dostuk microdistrict, not reaching the bypass road. We propose to move the Eastern bus station to the territory near the Silk Way logistics complex. This is near the intersection of Alma-Atinskaya Street and the bypass road. We are considering sketches of the projects. We want these to be modern complexes. The idea to move the bus stations belongs to the mayor of the city Emilbek Abdykadyrov. He controls its implementation,» Ulan Uezbaev concluded.
