A faulty road in surkhandarya where the president drove a car
When Shavkat Mirziyoyev went to Surkhandarya in mid—March, he drove a car himself, taking into account the objections falling from people regarding the quality of the roads on the Boysun-Denov route. It was then that the president commissioned the governor of Surkhandarya region to repair these roads, and soon after that work began.

According to the data, the project for the reconstruction of 4R-105 kilometers of Darband—Boysun—Elbayan highway in Surkhandarya region and 128-174 kilometers of 4R-100 Manghuzor—Jarqurgan—Bandikhan—Altinsoy—Denov Highway (total 111 kilometers) will be increased from the funds of the Asian Development Bank.
