Green areas in Bishkek have decreased by 25%

Irina Grishchenkina, head of the master plan project and deputy director for project work at the Scientific Research Institute for Prospective Urban Development (Russia), said that a comprehensive analysis of the capital's condition was carried out when developing the master plan. The results showed that Bishkek's green areas have shrunk by 25% in recent years.

She noted that housing construction has been actively developing in recent years. Irrigation in the city is considered to be neglected.

In addition, the population of the capital in particular and the country as a whole is growing every year. All these factors have led to a reduction in green spaces in the city, and Bishkek has lost its status as the greenest city in Central Asia.

The developers also noted that the current Master Plan is primarily designed to protect the interests of Bishkek residents.
