Recent rumors about the possible destruction of the playground in the “Yangi Sebzor” Mahalla of the Almazar district have caused concern among the city’s residents. Social media users expressed outrage, claiming that the hokimiyat is selling the playground area to entrepreneurs for commercial construction, which would lead to the playground’s destruction. However, as representatives of the hokimiyat explained, these concerns are unfounded. The playground is in poor condition, and at the request of the residents, a decision was made to relocate it to a safer place and carry out a complete reconstruction.
It all started when the land where the playground is currently located was put up for auction on a specialized trading platform. After that, rumors began to spread that the playground was being taken away from the children and given to entrepreneurs.
The hokimiyat noted that the “Yangi Sebzor” Mahalla is being renovated as part of the “Obod Mahalla” program. As part of this program, a new master plan for the mahalla was developed, which was agreed upon with the residents and took their wishes into account. One of these requests was to change the location of the playground – it will be moved further away from the roadway, which will create safer conditions for the children.
Additionally, the project excludes the cutting down of trees in the mahalla, which was an important condition for the residents. Currently, the playground has outdated and partially broken equipment, and it is located too close to the road, posing a threat to the lives and health of the children.
In connection with this, within the framework of the “Obod Mahalla” program, it was decided to relocate the playground to a safer nearby location, update the surface, and install new swings and equipment.
Similar work has already been completed and is ongoing in sixty other mahallas across the capital. In addition to reconstructing playgrounds, the mahallas are seeing improvements in lighting systems, the installation of irrigation systems, the planting of additional trees and shrubs, and the installation of new benches, gazebos, trash cans, and other amenities.
