Modernized Road Section Connecting Ashgabat and Gökdepe to Open in Arkadag
On September 29, the city of Arkadag will officially open a renovated segment of the road leading from the bridge on Akhan Avenue to the Ashgabat–Gökdepe direction. This upgrade is part of the city’s broader urban development plan to enhance transportation convenience and ensure road safety.
The reconstruction work was carried out to improve the city’s architectural appearance and provide better conditions for both residents and passengers. The newly updated section will serve as a key part of Arkadag’s growing transport network.
On the same day, construction and installation activities will continue on the stretch from Akhan Avenue to Garry Kuliyev Street. As a result, traffic in that area will be temporarily restricted.
The city administration of Arkadag reports that these modernization efforts are aimed at creating a more comfortable, safe, and efficient infrastructure for all road users.
