Buses in Almaty Undergo Replacements
In the heart of Almaty, residents and commuters will experience changes to their regular bus routes due to construction work on the water supply network on Satpaev Street, scheduled from August 6 to 31, 2025. Here's what you need to know about the affected routes and how to stay informed.
The construction work will lead to temporary rerouting of buses away from Satpaev Street, along alternative parallel streets. The Almaty city transport authority or local government websites will likely issue notices detailing the affected bus numbers, alternative stops, and the duration of the changes. It's possible that maps showing altered routes and bus stop relocations near the construction zone will also be provided.
To obtain detailed information and a map for these specific temporary bus route changes, we recommend checking the official Almaty city transport website or social media channels for announcements from August 6-9, 2025. Consulting local news outlets or municipal bulletins covering the Bostandyk district is another option. Visiting local transport hubs or bus stops around Satpaev Street in the Bostandyk district, where physical notices and maps are often posted regarding such changes, is also advisable.
The changes to the bus routes will affect the routes along Satpaev Street, Zhandosov Street, and Baizakov Street in the Bostandyk district. Specifically, Route No. 66, 98, and 112 will be temporarily altered. Westbound Route No. 66 will change to Abai Avenue - Baytursynov Street - Satpaev Street, while eastbound remains unchanged. Westbound Route No. 98 will change to Abai Avenue - Baytursynov Street - Satpaev Street, and eastbound remains unchanged. Westbound Route No. 112 will change to Shevchenko Street - Manshuk Mametova Street - Satpaev Street, with eastbound remaining unchanged.
It's important to note that the changes to the bus routes do not affect the eastbound direction of any of the three affected routes. Additionally, these incidents—a passenger sustaining a knee fracture in a bus in Karaganda, complaints about volunteers with boxes in buses in Astana, and a mini-concert staged by young people in a bus in Astana—do not appear to be related to the construction works on the external water supply network along Satpaev Street.
The reports of these incidents are not attributed to any specific source like Liter.kz or the press service of the city administration. These incidents are reported separately from the earlier mentioned changes in bus routes in the Bostandyk district.
In conclusion, commuters in the Bostandyk district should anticipate changes to their bus routes due to construction work on the water supply network on Satpaev Street from August 6 to 31, 2025. Stay informed by checking official city transport channels, local news outlets, and visiting transport hubs or bus stops for updates and maps detailing the altered routes.
