Rewritten Article:
In the pipeline for this year is the collection of roughly 100 billion tenge, according to Darhan Imanashev, chairman of the board at JSC "NC "KazAvtoZhol", during a press conference at the SCK, as per Liter.kz.
He elaborated on where the toll road funding is allocated.
"About 60 billion tenge is allocated for road maintenance, comprising tasks such as cleaning, ongoing repairs, and sign replacement, and so on. Approximately 30% goes towards capitalization or equipment purchases. Last year, we bought around 470 units of equipment, and this year, we plan to purchase an additional 700. All these expenses are covered by tolls," said Darhan Imanashev.
The head of "KazAvtoZhol" also shed light on the impact of adding new toll road segments and the existence of loss-making sections, like the Astan - Shchuchinsk highway.
It's worth noting that Kazakhstan is anticipating economic growth in 2025, boosted by increased oil production and infrastructure projects[2]. The government is focusing on improving public financial management and structural reforms to boost private sector development and withstand external shocks[2].
Kazakhstan is concentrating on large infrastructure projects, one being the modernization of the transport and logistics sector[2]. While specific toll road spending details aren't available from the search results, it's likely that these projects are part of broader infrastructure development initiatives in Kazakhstan.
Should you require detailed financial data, contacting local infrastructure ministries or reviewing official budget documents would be a good starting point.
