The key facts

  • Work will begin in Karshi on concreting the Chap Tarmoq canal and landscaping the surrounding area.
  • A stable water supply for 1,400 hectares of household plots is expected.
  • Around-the-clock recreation and walking areas will be created along the canal for 25,000 residents of four mahallas.

What is planned in Karshi

Head of the Presidential Administration Saida Mirziyoyeva said she had been briefed on work on the socio-economic development of Kashkadarya Region, noting that people should feel the results primarily in everyday life. Kun.uz quotes her as saying.

Water and recreation areas

Water supply was named one of the pressing issues for the region, which is why this area is receiving particular attention. In Karshi, work will begin on concreting the Chap Tarmoq canal and landscaping its surroundings. According to the reports, this will ensure a stable water supply for 1,400 hectares of household plots.

Who will be affected by the changes

Beyond water supply, the project also touches on residents' daily lives: recreation and walking areas will be built along the canal, open around the clock. They are intended for 25,000 residents of four mahallas located along the canal. Thus, the work combines solving a practical task — delivering water to household plots — with creating public spaces for the city's population. The reports by Kun.uz and Zamon.uz match in details: the area of land (1,400 hectares), the number of residents (25,000) and the number of mahallas (four). The reports do not say when the work will be completed or how it will be financed.
