Kazakhstan launches regional infrastructure projects for housing and transport

Kazakhstan authorities opened several new schools, railway stations, and housing units across various regions to modernize national infrastructure.

The government began construction on a 12,800-square-meter multifunctional congress center in the Burabay resort area. This project aims to boost business tourism and support local service providers and transport operators during the off-season. In the Akmola Region, a new school for 120 students opened in Kokshetau to replace an emergency building, while a new cultural park opened in Makinsk.

Railroad improvements included the reconstruction of the Zhaipak and Saryozek stations in the Zhetysu Region. These upgrades are part of a broader national plan to modernize 124 railway stations, with 106 stations already completed. Additionally, the government connected four villages in the Zhetysu Region to a natural gas network, providing heating to roughly 9,000 people who previously used solid fuels.

The state also distributed 136 apartments and houses to large families and socially vulnerable citizens in Shymkent and several other regions. In Almaty, families of emergency responders moved into a new furnished residential complex near a fire station. In Karagandy, a new digital office opened to provide public services and free training for citizens on how to use online government tools.
