Temporary road closures in Tashkent on May 22
Temporary traffic restrictions will be introduced in Tashkent on May 22. This decision was made as part of the events organized to see off the Uzbekistan national team to the World Cup.
It is reported that the restrictions will be in effect from 16:00 to 21:00. During this time, traffic on several major streets in the capital will be temporarily suspended or restricted. The goal is to organize the event safely and orderly, ensuring the safety of citizens and road users.
Drivers traveling in the Chilanzar district and surrounding areas should take these changes into account in advance. Since the restrictions may coincide with the evening rush hour, traffic congestion on some routes is possible.
On May 22, traffic will be temporarily restricted in the following areas:
Chuponota Street — from the intersection with Chilanzar Street to Qatortol Street;
Chilanzar Street — from the Small Ring Road (KXAY) to the intersection with Chuponota Street;
Secondary road of Bunyodkor Street — from the Small Ring Road (KXAY) to Chuponota Street;
Sebzor Street — from Nurafshon Street to the intersection of Islam Karimov and Bunyodkor streets;
Bunyodkor Street — from the intersection with Islam Karimov Street to 2nd Qatortol Street.
Authorities are asking drivers to avoid these routes during this time, to plan their trips in advance, and to choose alternative roads. Public transport users should also note that there may be changes to schedules.
Seeing off the Uzbekistan national team to the World Cup is a historic event for the country's football. Therefore, high interest in the event is expected. It is natural that security measures are strengthened and traffic restrictions are introduced at such times.
In short, those traveling in Tashkent on May 22 should manage their time wisely. We are seeing off the national team to the big stage, but avoiding traffic jams is up to us. A driver who plans their route in advance is a driver who has already achieved half the victory.
