Today, the progress of repair works at the underground pedestrian crossing in the Vtoroy Podyom district was inspected. The works include renewing the wall cladding, laying paving stones, and installing lighting and video surveillance systems. Measures are also being taken to ensure barrier-free access for people with reduced mobility.
Kostanay has three underground pedestrian crossings. Last year, a major renovation was completed at the crossing near School No. 9 on Kaiyrbekov Street. The renovation of the crossing near the GAI bus stop is planned for next year.
Construction of a fourth underground pedestrian crossing between the Tobyl Arena car park and the Kostanay Plaza shopping and entertainment centre is scheduled for completion by November 1. The project is being implemented using investor funds.
The city also has three above-ground pedestrian crossings, located on Nazarbayev Avenue, Gashek Street, and near the railway station.
Kostanay continues to modernise its pedestrian infrastructure in stages. The main objective is to ensure safe, accessible, and convenient movement for all residents.
