Deputies of Parliament inspect construction of bypass road in Uzgen

Deputies of the Parliament of Kyrgyzstan inspected the construction of a bypass road in Uzgen. The press service of the Parliament reported.

Traffic jams in the city are reportedly created by people traveling along Bishkek-Osh highway, and in connection with this, a project for the construction of a bypass road has been developed.

Work began earlier this year. The project, implemented on the basis of public-private partnership, costs $29.4 million. According to construction coordinator Nurlan Sulaymanov, the 13-kilometer-long road will be 22 meters wide and divided into four lanes.

According to the project, two large bridges will be built on Zhazy and Kara-Darya rivers, 77 meters and 197 meters long, respectively. They will change the course of rivers and free about a thousand hectares of land for agricultural needs.

About 50 modern underground passages will be built there for the movement of livestock and movement along internal routes. 300 workers and 92 units of road construction equipment are working on site. Construction of the road will be completed by the end of the year.
