Ministry of Finance has no money to repair Bishkek – Kara-Balta highway

The Ministry of Transport and Roads of Kyrgyzstan told why the rehabilitated section of the Bishkek — Kara-Balta highway was cut.

According to Chief Engineer Vasily Chernykh, the Finance Minister said that he can’t allocate additional funds for repairing the entire road. As a result, the site under repair was reduced by 9 km.

The chairman of the public council of the Ministry of Transport Talant Sadakbayev noted that together with the consultant, the project could be remade so that the project covered the entire track. «One could exclude one pavement, but make the road. And at the expense of saving later to finish the pavement. No, you don’t want to think about other options," he said.
