In the renovated subways are installed LED lighting and motion sensors, sound speakers for music playback. The ceilings are covered with special non-combustible material, and the walls are decorated with bright stylized paintings.


For example, in the underground passage at the intersection of Abay and Abylai khan, the walls were stylized with quotations of Kazakh poet and enlightener Abay Kunanbayev. In the underground passage opposite the Palace of the Republic, the walls were decorated with images of seven treasures of the Kazakh nomad "Zhety Kazyna".

Within the framework of the "Safe City" direction, several video cameras of the new generation are installed in each underground passageway. They are equipped with the ability to recognize faces and are connected to the monitoring system of district departments of internal affairs.


"This year we are completing the repair of almost 160 streets and the improvement of more than 600 yards. The historical center of the city is being modernized. Over the past year, about 800 km of engineering networks have been renovated. All this, of course, creates inconveniences for our citizens. A number of large construction organizations have already been fined for non-compliance with the rules of construction work in the reconstruction of the same streets. All the works will be completed with the appropriate quality and in the optimal time, "Bauyrzhan Baibek noted.

 
The governor of Almaty also asked the citizens to wait a bit and expressed confidence that, under the joint control of the authorities and the public, construction companies will in the future still come to the so-called building culture, when repair work will pass for the townspeople more insignificantly and without any inconvenience.
