As part of this initiative, the municipality plans to create a traffic council—a platform for interaction between experts, citizens, and government institutions, which will allow for the development of comprehensive solutions to address the congestion problem.
The mayor of the capital, Aibek Junushaliev, opening the meeting, expressed gratitude to all participants for their activity and willingness to cooperate. He noted that only through joint efforts can the issue of congestion be tackled.
