An overpass connecting two parts of Boburshokh Street was constructed in Andijan; President of Uzbekistan Shavkat Mirziyoyev reviewed the facility.

The total length of the overpass is 796 meters with a width of 25.9 meters (Gazeta.uz indicates 26 meters), reports the national news agency UzA. The length of the trestle section reaches 596 meters, with an additional 200 meters accounting for the section with retaining walls. The total cost of the project amounted to 271 billion soums.

According to UzA, the transport structure eliminates a 5.3-kilometer detour for 140 thousand residents of Andijan and the Altynkul district. Due to the absence of the detour and waiting at the railway crossing, travel time will decrease by 17 minutes.

The route for emergency services vehicles was reduced from 15 to 9.3 kilometers. As a result, the delivery time of patients to the emergency medical care center decreased by 14 minutes.
