This is an advantage that gives us great opportunities in global competition. We must leave high-quality roads and railways to future generations” -Kasym-Jomart Tokayev, President of the Republic of Kazakhstan.In 2024, the total volume of construction, reconstruction and repair work will amount to 12 thousand kilometers of roads. This is a record figure. During the road construction season, more than 25 thousand people and more than 10 thousand pieces of special equipment were involved in the reconstruction and repair projects of national highways.The construction of 7 thousand kilometers of roads has been completed. In particular, construction work has been completed on the Karaganda - Almaty, Taldykorgan - Ust-Kamenogorsk, Aktobe - Kandyagash and Atyrau - Astrakhan highways.
