182 new buses were issued in the regions of Kazakhstan thanks to the support of the Industrial Development Fund JSC

With the support of the Industrial Development Fund JSC, a subsidiary of the Development Bank of Kazakhstan JSC, since June 1 of this year, 182 new buses of Kazakhstan production have been issued to the regions of the country. Of this number, 18 buses were provided to transport children to educational institutions, and the remaining 164 will be used in bus depots. Thanks to the FRP support programs, residents of Kazakhstani cities will travel on new comfortable buses that meet modern safety requirements.

Vehicles were issued in the following regions:

● Pavlodar - 82 city buses;
● Astana – 35 city buses;
● Karaganda city – 20 city buses;
● Aktobe - 27 city buses;
● Pavlodar region - 14 school buses;
● East Kazakhstan region - 4 school buses.

Also, since the beginning of the summer, the IDF opened financing for the purchase of 123 buses, including 36 buses for interregional regional and district transportation. This work is carried out through borrowed funds from Zhasyl Damu JSC.

The buses supplied to fleets and educational organizations comply with environmental standards and are equipped with everything necessary for the comfort and safety of passengers: air conditioners, fire extinguishers, CCTV cameras, a video recording system, and mechanical ramps for people with disabilities. Buses meet all modern requirements for safe and comfortable transportation of passengers.

At the same time, the new buses are adapted to the climatic conditions of our country. For example, on vehicles intended for the northern regions, additional ovens in the cabins, cabin air extractors, and so on have been installed.

By the end of this year, more than 500 new modern buses will be issued in all regions of the country, which will make it possible to update and replenish the car fleet of Kazakhstan, while making it safer and more environmentally friendly.

The program to upgrade the bus fleet in the regions of the country is being implemented as part of the Concept for the Development of the Manufacturing Industry of the Republic of Kazakhstan for 2023-2029
