It is necessary to create powerful industrial zones between Kazan and the surrounding areas in order to provide jobs to people living in this territory. This was stated by the President of Tatarstan Rustam Minnikhanov at the scientific-project seminar "Development of agglomerations and transport infrastructure of the Republic of Tatarstan", which was held today at KSUAE. “It is wrong to build only housing without creating any industrial zones. These are the questions that need to be considered. For example, powerful industrial zones need to be created between Kazan and Zelenodolsk, - said the President of the Republic of Tatarstan. - Now we are reaping the fruits of early shortcomings: traffic jams, the discontent of local residents. Everyone is moving to the city because there are not enough jobs in the suburbs." According to the President of Tatarstan, if the municipal districts are not self-sufficient, then local residents will continue to look for work not on their territory, but outside it. “Housing has been built, transportation issues have been resolved, but where do people work? Will they travel to the city every day? In agglomerations, it is necessary to create an infrastructure for a comfortable life and work. We need industrial sites, technology parks, industrial parks. It is necessary to create new points of attraction,” - Rustam Minnikhanov emphasized. The President noted that the topic of the development of agglomerations is very important. “This is a lot of work. We must start with an understanding of what we have in the agglomerations today. It is necessary to look at the zones that are not involved. And before you plan anything, you need to identify weak points in order to know how to move,” - he added. Rustam Minnikhanov drew attention to the fact that housing construction should be accompanied by the development of social infrastructure. “You cannot create social tension,” - he stressed. The President of the Republic of Tatarstan is also convinced that there should be a management system for the agglomeration.
