The hokimiyat of the Yashnabad district in Tashkent has shared details of a project aimed at transforming Shota Rustaveli Street into a modern tourist zone that will operate around the clock.
The project’s goal is to turn the street into an attractive destination for leisure and entertainment for both locals and international tourists. As part of the initiative, the street will receive infrastructure combining trade, gastronomy, and tourism facilities, accompanied by major improvements in landscaping and building renovations.
Key Elements of the Project
- A 1.6 km bike lane will be dedicated to cyclists, offering a convenient environment for bike travel.
- 40 modern benches will be installed along the street, providing visitors with comfortable spots for rest.
- Ramps for people with disabilities will be set up at ten key locations to ensure accessibility.
- Green spaces stretching over a 1.5 km area will be created for walking and relaxation.
- Full reconstruction of six bus stops with the installation of sanitary facilities for passengers’ convenience.
- Upgrading underground passages: At two intersections, pedestrian underpasses will be renovated, and four additional ramps will be installed to accommodate people with limited mobility.
Thanks to these upgrades, Shota Rustaveli Street will become not only an essential part of the city’s infrastructure but also a popular tourist destination. The new appearance of the street is expected to attract both international and local visitors, offering a safe and pleasant environment for leisure, strolls, and entertainment.
The project also aims to boost gastronomic tourism, with the renovated infrastructure expected to increase the district’s appeal, turning it into a hub for those who enjoy urban culture and tourism.
