Akim of Almaty Yerbolat Dosayev got acquainted with the construction of water supply and sanitation networks in Zhetysu district during a working detour.Previously, there were no backbone networks in this section. In Soviet times, residents stretched a collective water supply system, and then connected to private networks. Due to the small diameter of the pipes and the growing population, there was a shortage of pressure and, consequently, water. The pipeline, worn out during operation, could not withstand the load, which caused frequent gusts, and intermittent interruptions in water supply.Large-scale construction of new water supply and sanitation networks in Zhetysu district began in March 2023. The total length of engineering networks under the project is 97.75 km: 25.7 km of water supply and 72 km of sewer networks. As of today, the facility is 30% ready. The completion of the work is scheduled for December 2025.The project also provides for the restoration of asphalt pavement on 13 streets along the entire width of the road, work has already been completed on 9 of them: Taimyrskaya, Meshchersky, Shildekhan, February, Ob, Feoktistov, Leonov, Bykovsky, Serikov. Work is underway to restore the 1.5 km long roadway along Burundayskaya and Oktyabrskaya streets. Similar work will be carried out on Logovaya and Ermolova streets.After the completion of the project, about 6 thousand subscribers will be provided with central engineering networks.The head of the city instructed the akim of Zhetysu district to monitor the progress and quality of construction and complete the work on time. Yerbolat Dosayev noted that the implementation of this project is an important step in improving the urban infrastructure and the quality of life of residents of Zhetysu district.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/almaty/press/news/details/883532
