Measures to bring pastures back into use and improve infrastructure

The relocation of users to Sary-Jaz is intended to bring abandoned pastures back into active use, which in turn should reduce pressure on nearby pastures.

Preparing the area and the road network

As part of preparations for the use of Sary-Jaz in Tyup district, near the villages of Sary-Bulun and Yntymak, work was carried out to sow barren plots with grasses using mechanized methods. In addition, to provide access to Sary-Jaz, the Ministry of Emergency Situations built two bridges — 140 and 70 meters long — and repaired a 50–60 km stretch of road.

Additional infrastructure work

According to the ministry, providing the road network at the Sary-Jaz and Zhaak jailoos will require the repair of about 112 km of roads. Construction of 20 bridges is also planned at the Chymyndy-Sai jailoo.
