The residents of the city, especially civil servants, in order to avoid the traffic jams after work, try to go to the right bank across the bridge in Syganak street. But people hardly ever know that going down from the bridge and turning left, it is possible to drive to Tauelsizdik street along the “parking bay”.

Usually in Tauelsizdik Avenue, before reaching B.Momyshuly street, there is a huge traffic jam. According to our observations, this is due to the fact that the green light on the traffic lights is not lit for a long time. The figure shows the path where it is possible to bypass the traffic jam, not reaching Bauyrzhan Momyshuly street.

All metropolitans are aware that Sh.Ualikhanov street has traffic jams very often. And all because of a few shopping centers such as “Artem” and “Shapagat” located at the end of this street. In order not to get stuck, you can turn at Omarov street. Just keep in mind that this street is very narrow.
