Construction has begun on a pier at Pioneer Lake in Bishkek’s Karagachevaya Grove, after concerned residents noticed the work and alerted 24.kg.
The city administration said the pier should be completed in roughly two months. The project is part of a wider effort to improve the grove, where work began in May with the cleaning of Pioneer Lake.
Bishkek Mayor Aibek Dzhunushaliev previously said more than 50 million soms had been allocated for the improvements. He added that the authorities planned to increase the funding later.
The redevelopment plan also includes renovating the park’s fountains and event stage, building a new football field, basketball court and workout areas, laying sidewalks, and creating a 4.2-kilometer running track. In late July, Sverdlovsk district head Mederbek Amandgeldiev presented a video report on the work.
