  • Traffic patterns near Manas International Airport in Bishkek will change from June 23 to July 1 due to reconstruction.

Reconstruction work is set to begin on the road leading to Manas International Airport in Bishkek, prompting temporary changes to traffic flow. The first phase of the project will impact an 8-kilometer section of the road, extending from the airport to Manas village along Frunze Street.

From June 23 to July 1, drivers and passengers traveling to and from the airport should anticipate altered traffic schemes. While the road will not be fully closed, construction will be carried out in stages. This means that one side of the carriageway may be temporarily shut down at certain points, with traffic in both directions rerouted to the remaining open lane.

"Airports of Kyrgyzstan" OJSC announced the upcoming work, urging travelers to plan their journeys in advance and allow for additional travel time. The municipality emphasized that these temporary restrictions are necessary for the reconstruction of the road infrastructure surrounding the international airport.

This initiative aims to improve the road network serving the vital transportation hub, ensuring smoother access and potentially enhancing safety and efficiency for airport users.
