The total length of the roads of Kazakhstan is 168.7 thousand kilometers. 24.8 thousand kilometers of them are roads of republican significance.
In 2019, the implementation of the Nurly Zhol State Infrastructure Development Program for 2015-2019 was completed, within the framework of which 3 thousand km of republican roads were built and reconstructed, about 7 thousand km of roads were repaired, and about 100 thousand people were involved.
Also, 15 thousand km of local roads were repaired. This allowed to improve the mobility of the regions and was reflected in their socio-economic development.
In December 2019, the Nurly Zhol State Infrastructure Development Program for 2020-2025 was adopted, within the framework of which over the next 6 years it is planned to construct and reconstruct 10 thousand km of roads (including 3.8 thousand km of transition projects), and also carry out major and average repairs of 11 thousand km of roads of the republican network.
The total funding for the road industry under the Nurly Zhol program will amount to 3.5 trillion tenge.
Thus, the share of republican roads in good and satisfactory condition will be increased to 100%, and the length of roads of category I and II of the technical category will increase to 60%.
At the same time, in accordance with the message of Elbasy on providing the country's regions with transport infrastructure, it is planned to repair more than 27 thousand km of roads of regional and district significance and improve their condition to 95%.
