By the end of the year, Minsk plans to start updating the Chelyuskintsev Park

Work on updating the Chelyuskintsev Park is planned to begin before the end of 2026. This was told by Deputy Chairman of the Minsk City Executive Committee Oleg Korzun at a personal reception of citizens, the correspondent of the agency “Minsk-Novosti”.

The applicants were interested in the issues of overhaul of the residential sector, the functioning of the parking center, the organization of pedestrian connections (the construction of sidewalks), the replacement of water consumption meters, etc.

Ask them about working in the park. Chelyuskintsev kiosk, engaged in measuring the physical parameters of customers (hand strength, weight, height, etc.), a resident of the capital touched on another topical topic. According to a woman who has devoted her whole life to sports, in the capital’s parks and recreation areas today there are not enough recreation facilities, sports and children’s play equipment.

- In Minsk, new parks and recreation areas are being commissioned, reconstructed and updated, said O. Korzun. This process is continuous and continuous. These are Hugo Chavez Park, Maxim Gorky Park, the 900th Anniversary Park of Minsk and others. In the near future, the renewal of the Chelyuskintsev Park will begin, next year we will begin the reconstruction of the green area of the recreation park in Uruchye, which is located on an area of 26 hectares between the Moscow Ring Road and Shafaryansky Street. In the capital, 23 beaches are equipped and open for recreation.

In all the above locations, according to the Deputy Chairman of the Minsk City Executive Committee, attention is focused on a healthy lifestyle. Large-scale work is carried out not only on the installation of children's gaming, but also sports equipment. Playgrounds for volleyball, basketball and mini-football are being arranged, anti-vandal simulators are being installed. Cycling paths lead to the recreation areas of the city, the length of which is already more than 360 km.

- We are also actively engaged in work with owners’ associations (TS) and collegial bodies of territorial public administration (COTOS) on civil initiatives for the installation of sports and children’s gaming equipment in yard areas, O. Korzun said.

He stressed that not all citizens have the opportunity to purchase a subscription or visit a sports and recreation complex or a stadium located in the distance. However, today it is already possible to improve your health in many places of the city within walking distance, in the fresh air near your house. When building new neighborhoods, this direction is also given priority. This year, 51 civic initiatives will be implemented in the city.

- All applicants would like to receive some assistance in resolving their issues, O. Korzun concluded. Some of them can really help in this. Both personal and collective appeals of citizens are considered. A number of them will be analysed with my visit and the participation of all stakeholders. It is also necessary to understand in detail all disputes and see that the benefit for one person does not become a detriment to another. We will try to come to the desired solutions to create comfortable living conditions for citizens in Minsk, but only within the framework of the current legislation.
