This transport hub is one of the busiest, as it connects not only the city center with the international airport, but is also used by residents of nearby suburban settlements. With the introduction of the junction, which is an important element of the small transport ring, the capacity of the section for motorists will increase on average by 15%.

“We continue to develop transport infrastructure, including for motorists. During the last working visit to Almaty, the Head of State instructed the government to allocate the necessary funds for this. Today, the city is building two more metro stations, two transport interchanges, punching Abay Avenue and Sain Street. Already this year, it is necessary to begin construction of another interchange with the overpass and tunnel on the Kuldzhinsky highway - Bukhtarma street. This will seriously increase the mobility of citizens, reduce business costs, reduce traffic jams in this area and the environmental burden on the city, ”said Bauyrzhan Baybek.
