The road will be gradually opened this year and fully completed by October 2023. In order to build the road and put it into operation on time, a total of about 100 units of land needed to be vacated. Deputy Mayor for Construction, Housing, Industry, and Technology Park B.Sukhbaatar and officials visited the site.
Deputy Mayor B.Sukhbaatar said, “We are working to start land acquisition to intensify the project. Since the first design of the new road was made in 2012, the number of households, buildings and real estate in the residential area has increased, so there are problems with land acquisition, but we are trying to resolve this and intensify road construction.”
