Tashkent plans to develop 306 hectares along a 16-kilometer stretch of the Chirchik River. The 'Coastal Zone' project includes bank reinforcement, creation of green areas, and placement of trade and service facilities.

The information was presented to President Shavkat Mirziyoyev. According to the presidential press service, a green belt covering 187.3 hectares will appear along the Bektemir Canal. It will feature walking areas, pedestrian and bicycle paths, internal roads, lighting systems, and bridges.

A project to create four artificial lakes and reservoirs in the capital was also presented. President Shavkat Mirziyoyev noted that this is insufficient for forming a cool microclimate and instructed to increase the number of reservoirs to 12.
