00:10Green solutions, efficiency, accessibility and sustainability are the core principles of the Tashkent Urban Mobility Plan.

00:20Scooters are rapidly gaining popularity in Tashkent.

00:24I love getting around this way. It's a rapid and eco-friendly way to discover this city.

00:30This new trend has the potential to become the future of urban mobility in Tashkent.

00:41Passengers who use public transport are also seeing changes.

00:46As part of a broader initiative to reduce air pollution, Tashkent has been introducing electric buses to its fleet.

00:53Electric buses also help reduce noise pollution in the city.

01:00What I like the bus is that it doesn't damage the environment around the environment.

01:06That it's quiet. The routes I use are often walking.

01:23They don't waste fuel in the streets.

01:26They recommended them as the most sustainable way of public transport.

01:30And due to the stability, the passenger flow has increased on these routes.

01:35In the past few years, the overall number of buses in Tashkent has doubled.

01:42New monitoring technologies have been implemented.

01:45The street layout is also being modernized.

01:48Dedicated lanes for buses are being constructed, prioritizing public transport.

02:55The Tashkent Urban Mobility Plan aims to double the number of passengers by 2030,

03:04encouraging people to reduce their reliance on cars.

03:20The new cycling lanes in Tashkent are a significant addition to the city's evolving transport landscape,

03:47as these lanes take shape, rental services are emerging to capitalize on this trend.

03:56In Tashkent, a lot of residents are placed on cars, replacing their own cars.

04:02The most important thing is that the residents are already starting to understand

04:04that cars are not just a hobby, but a means of individual mobility.

04:17In Tashkent, it's very easy to ride on electric vehicles, because we have a lot of sunny days.

04:26It's time to do cars everywhere.

04:35because it's healthy, it's convenient, and it's very fast to get to work, to home.

04:41Overall, these developments are paving the way for a greener, more connected Tashkent,
