The authors of the appeals point to the rapid deterioration of the surface and the resulting inconvenience for motorists.
History of roadworks on the section
Road quality issues emerged shortly after the completion of the bridge construction. According to available data, approximately 144,000,000 som was allocated to the construction of the facility.

Repeated traffic restrictions to test a new experimental technology
In August, a rut with a depth of about 7 centimeters was recorded on the road. Despite the contractor replacing the surface under warranty in September, roadworks began again in the same location in early November.
"This road is not even eight months old, and the asphalt is already ruined. They are wasting state money time and time again,"
Demands for city authorities
In connection with the situation, demands have been issued to Bishkek Mayor Aibek Zhunushaliev and Vice Mayor for Housing and Communal Services Ramiz Aliev. Citizens are demanding explanations as to who is responsible for the quality of the work and what funds are being used for repeated activities on the recently repaired section.
