The urban plan is being developed to create an effective model for sustainable urban development in Bishkek, the capital of Kyrgyzstan.
Based on the data analysis, key development areas for Bishkek through 2050 were identified:
– Development of the city's industrial base;
– Formation of a polycentric structure of community centers;
– Formation of a balanced transportation system;
– Development of social infrastructure;
– Development of a natural and ecological framework;
– Preservation of particularly valuable agricultural lands.
The development of the urban plan included the creation of a digital mapping base for the project, collection and systematization of initial data, public opinion research (quantitative and qualitative surveys), development of design solutions, and public discussion of the draft master plan with Bishkek residents, the professional community, and coordination with executive authorities and local governments.
Innovative approaches have been implemented in the development of the Bishkek City Urban Plan for 2050:
- An integrated digital approach is being implemented in the information support for the master plan (land and property complex data, systematization of economic information and demographic characteristics, semantic description of the structural components of the urban development environment);
- An approach to rational territorial planning based on a balanced framework (transport, natural and environmental, and economic);
- A balanced approach that ensures the settlement of the projected population with an optimal ratio of labor resources, employment locations, residential area, and the required number of social facilities, taking into account the concept of a 15-minute city.
