The village of Kozhomkul, located in the Sokuluk district of the Chui region, has become a site for the removal of a landfill that had been on its outskirts for a long time. As local resident Azamat Tynarov reported, the dump was situated along the road connecting the villages of Kozhomkul and Frunze, and waste had been accumulating there for many years.

Tynarov noted that the landfill was constantly growing in size, and residential areas began just 500 meters from this location. During the summer, fires frequently occurred here, and extinguishing them took several weeks. Local residents repeatedly appealed to the authorities to address this issue.

The village administration of Kozhomkul reported that now all household waste from the region will be transported to the central sanitary landfill in Bishkek. “Previously, we could not transport garbage to the capital due to the lack of specialized equipment. It should also be noted that a new extension of Profsoyuznaya Street will run near the site where the landfill was located,” the village administration clarified.
