These are repeated hearings organized at the city hall for public activists, employees of enterprises, and city organizations. The developers of the master plan, the Kazan State University of Architecture and Engineering, have taken into account a large number of clarifications from the residents of Naberezhnye Chelny and presented an updated urban development strategy.
Head of the department at the Kazan State University of Architecture and Engineering Alexander Dembich noted that not all tasks related to city expansion can be solved within the framework of the master plan, but planning projects will be developed on its basis for more detailed elaboration.
For the estimated implementation period of the master plan, the construction of 16 schools, 34 kindergartens, and 21 additional education facilities is planned.
"The issue of a shortage of healthcare institutions is being addressed through the construction of additional buildings for existing hospitals, as well as the introduction of general practitioner offices," said Liliya Zakieva.
In addition, the master plan includes the creation of cultural, leisure, and educational facilities such as a water park, a polytechnic university, and a large concert hall.
Yulia Zakieva noted that great importance is attached to the city's transport system. The existing railway infrastructure will be used to form the future intra-city rail transport line. In the long term, plans include not only the extension of Moskovsky Avenue but also the continuation of Chulman Avenue along the Komsomolskaya embankment. "Diverting federal highways to bypass Chelny will allow for better distribution of traffic flow in the city and reduce the number of accidents," remarked the member of the development team.
To ensure the comfort and safety of pedestrians, it is necessary to develop a special parking program, similar to the republican "Our Yard" program, the developers are convinced.
During the meeting, city residents asked pressing questions, including about the liquidation of garage cooperatives (this issue received a lot of attention during the first public hearings). The Head of the Executive Committee Farid Salakhov reassured the owners: "There are no plans to demolish garages at this time."
Many topics that concern the residents of Chelny will be taken into consideration. This includes proposals for developing a road towards Azmushkino to exit towards Menzelinsk, constructing an interchange near the Emergency Hospital, developing tram services, and much more.
