As part of the implementation of the instructions of the President of the country, the Akim of the Kostanay region Kumar Aksakalov got acquainted with the progress of construction of residential buildings and infrastructure facilities in the new microdistricts "Astana" and "Baiterek" of the city of Kostanay.

Recall that the Head of State emphasized: "Affordable housing is not a dream, but our duty to citizens." Guided by this task, about 1 million square meters of housing have been commissioned in the region over the past two years.

The microdistricts "Astana" and "Baiterek" will become some of the largest residential areas in the regional center. In total, 154 multi-storey buildings are planned to be built here, which will provide more than 14 thousand new apartments.

Today, the construction of 10 five-storey buildings is being completed - the work is 95% complete. In parallel, the construction of another 13 similar buildings has begun.

In addition to residential buildings, the project provides for the creation of modern infrastructure. "Smart" stops, video surveillance systems, children's and sports grounds will be installed here. Schools, kindergartens, a multidisciplinary hospital, leisure centers and a Sports Palace will be located within walking distance.

A gas boiler house with a capacity of 49.5 Gcal is being built to ensure uninterrupted heat supply to the new residential area. Construction, installation and commissioning works are ongoing at the site, and the project is undergoing state examination.

“The implementation of such a large-scale project is not only an improvement in housing conditions, but also a new impetus for the socio-economic development of the region. It is important to provide people with not just housing, but a full-fledged comfortable living environment,” said Kumar Aksakalov.

Special attention is paid to supporting young people. The Kostanay Zhastary program continues to operate in the region, under which more than 340 young people have been provided with housing in three years. The program will be continued in 2025. This year, its financing will amount to 938 million tenge, including funds from Otbasy Bank JSC.
