The city of Nurafshan in the Tashkent region is preparing for a large-scale renovation and modernization. The regional government, in collaboration with the city administration, has developed an ambitious project aimed at improving the city’s infrastructure, affecting both residential and commercial areas. As part of this project, old one- and two-story houses built in the 1950s will be demolished, making way for modern multi-story residential complexes and commercial buildings.
According to the Agency for Strategic Initiatives, the renovation program will affect buildings located on “Toshkent yuli” and “Khurramlik” streets. Here, the old houses will be replaced with residential complexes comprising 1,000 apartments and commercial spaces. The project promises not only to enhance living conditions but also to create new business opportunities.
Key directions for the city’s development:
- An investment of $320 million will be made to develop a 20-hectare area in the “Birlik” neighborhood, where the buildings of “Tuytepa Textile” were previously located. Major investment projects are planned for this site.
- Construction of a multi-story hotel complex and a shopping and entertainment center on a 0.45-hectare area in “Nurafshon Business City.”
- Creation of new residential complexes, including multi-story buildings, kindergartens, and playgrounds, on a 6-hectare area in “Nurafshon Business City.”
- Transformation of “Khurramlik” street in the “Oybek” neighborhood into a commercial-service street, making it a key business hub of the city.
- Construction of an eco-market and an auto showroom for storing and selling agricultural products on an 11.8-hectare area in the “Birlik” neighborhood.
Relocation of administrative buildings
One of the most significant initiatives is the relocation of administrative buildings for regional departments of ministries and agencies from Tashkent to Nurafshan. This decision is aimed at decentralizing government structures and creating a new business hub in Nurafshan.
Improving transportation infrastructure
Another important direction for development is transportation modernization. Measures will be developed to reduce the traffic load between Tashkent and Nurafshan, as well as to improve road safety. Under a public-private partnership (PPP), there are plans to expand transport connectivity between Tashkent and the Tashkent region. A tender for this project is scheduled for the end of 2024.
These large-scale changes aim to transform Nurafshan into a modern city with developed infrastructure and comfortable living and business conditions.
