Within the "Safe City" direction, all old lighting poles are replaced with modern LED lights. On the streets to be reconstructed, modern traffic lights will be installed and all old metal structures will be removed at intersections.

In addition, the facade of the neighboring cinema "Arman" and the night illumination of the hotel "Kazakhstan" will be updated. In turn, at the station square "Almaty-2" with the purpose of organizing the safe movement of pedestrians, transport logistics will be completely revised and the territory of gardening will be increased.

In general, during the repair of city streets, construction of new sidewalks along the races to yards will be organized, which will improve the safety of pedestrians.

On the same day, Bauyrzhan Baibek checked the process of construction of a high-speed bus corridor along Timiryazev Street, which would cover the densely populated areas of Almaty.

As part of the reconstruction of the street, sidewalks, irrigation canals and bicycle paths are being repaired in parallel, as well as re-engineering of engineering networks, dismantling of illegal annexes and fences.
