The project is being implemented as part of the national initiative "Movement without Barriers". One of the key tasks will be to ensure barrier-free access to all establishments and pharmacies located along the site. It is assumed that every visitor will be able to get to the necessary institutions without any obstacles and safely.
In addition to increasing accessibility, the project includes a number of changes to improve passenger comfort. An additional pavilion will be installed at the stop, which will increase the covered area and provide better protection from the sun and precipitation. The area will also be greened: new trees and perennial plants resistant to urban conditions will be planted.

Another element of the renovation will be the dismantling of temporary structures (MAFs), which will free up space for pedestrians. The landing platform and sidewalk are also planned to be repaired, and an inefficient mini-pocket of road, which did not fulfill its function and complicated traffic, will be eliminated.

The city authorities emphasize that the repairs will be carried out in stages. This will allow for safe access to pharmacies, medical facilities, and other institutions operating in this area throughout the entire period of the work.
