BAKU, Azerbaijan, June 9. Akim of Kazakhstan’s
Akmola region, Marat Akhmetzhanov, and representatives of Aqmola
Invest discussed infrastructure development projects in Kosshy,
Trend reports via the
regional akimat.


The sides focused on the creation of a dedicated investment zone
in Kosshy, with regional authorities emphasizing the need to
attract large-scale industrial projects for processing local
agricultural and raw materials.


“It is necessary to focus on launching large, profitable
enterprises that will process local raw materials and agricultural
products, as well as create new jobs for residents of the region.
This will help strengthen the economy and increase the city’s
investment attractiveness,” Akhmetzhanov said.


Attention was also given to transport infrastructure upgrades,
including road construction and reconstruction projects in Kosshy.
More than 4,500 meters of road surface are scheduled for renovation
this year, alongside improvements in adjacent infrastructure,
including sidewalks, lighting, bus stops and curbs. Officials noted
that more than 60 utility manholes were discovered under existing
asphalt layers during works; they are being cleaned and integrated
into the drainage system to improve stormwater management.







Preparations for the upcoming heating season were also reviewed.
Work is underway at the city’s central boiler house and heating
networks, including equipment upgrades aimed at increasing capacity
and improving reliability. Nearly 2 kilometers of heating pipelines
are being replaced, with authorities stating that all works are
progressing according to schedule.


Akhmetzhanov instructed relevant agencies to ensure timely and
high-quality implementation of all infrastructure projects,
stressing their importance for Kosshy’s sustainable development and
improved living conditions.


The developments come as Kazakhstan continues to scale up
nationwide infrastructure modernization and investment attraction
efforts. Speaking at a government meeting today, Minister of
Transport Nurlan Sauranbayev said that 11,000 kilometers of public
roads across the country have been covered by road works this year,
reflecting the government’s focus on improving transport
connectivity and supporting economic growth through large-scale
infrastructure investment.
