Aliyev tours Uzbekistan’s 'New Tashkent' project

On August 23, President of the Republic of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev toured Uzbekistan’s largest urban development project, “New Tashkent.”

Axar.az reports that the project is a new urban development model that brings together the country’s economy, investment policy, transport system, education, ecology and digital technologies in a single space.

Once fully completed, the project is expected to create more than 260,000 new jobs. More than 10,000 workers are currently employed at construction sites. One of the key innovative solutions being implemented in “New Tashkent” is trigeneration technology, in which electricity generation, heating and cooling processes are managed within a single technological chain.

Modern administrative buildings for more than 60 government agencies, hotels, restaurants, service centers, business complexes, tourism facilities, New Uzbekistan University, a new complex for the National Library of Uzbekistan, scientific laboratories, multimedia centers, museums, sports facilities and a student campus are being built in the area. The “Spring of the East” complex being constructed here will become one of the largest residential projects in Central Asia. The 95-hectare complex is planned to include approximately 15,000 apartments.
