00:31East of Uzbekistan's capital, New Tusken is rising.
00:35Construction began in 2023 with plans for up to 2 million residents.
00:40The first phase covers 6,000 hectares with $50 billion in development plan.
00:47So far, projects worth $2 billion have been completed.
00:51Construction has also begun on 10 more with a combined value of $2.5 billion.
00:5750 plots are earmarked for foreign investors
01:01and business delegations regularly visit the New Tusken Directorate.
01:14New Tusken is already becoming a place of work too.
01:17Employees arrive by car or on a new bus service.
01:21Inside, it's a working day at the Ministry of Construction.
01:25The Ministries of Transport and Energy also have staff here.
01:30A city needs more than homes and new roads.
01:34Government employees are already working here,
01:37although their permanent offices will be ready soon in the near future.
01:42Actually, this is an early glimpse of the new life in New Tusken.
01:47For staff, this is no ordinary workplace.
01:51The most important part of the work is that the buildings are being built in the near future.
01:57And for some, it means something more.
02:09New Tusken's first residential neighbourhoods are also taking shape.
02:13At Shark Bahori, nearly 7,000 apartments are complete with shared courtyards and children's playgrounds.
02:23The scale of New Tusken is measured in billions,
02:27but behind the numbers are the homes where people will build their lives.
02:32One of them is where we are at the moment, and we will see how it looks like.
02:37Natural light pours in through panoramic windows.
02:42As the sales representative explains, energy efficiency is another priority.
02:47Modern construction materials, heating and cooling systems are designed to help manage energy consumption.
02:54Across the development, apartments offer different layouts,
02:58from separate kitchens to open-plan living spaces.
03:01They are delivered fully finished, saving buyers, the work, and expense of renovation.
03:07But for some buyers, what matters most is what these homes represent.
03:22Education is another investment in the next generation.
03:26New facilities for New Uzbekistan University, Nizami Pedagogical University,
03:31and the National Library have already been inaugurated, with further campus development underway.
03:37The city's sporting ambitions include a $100 million, 55,000-seat stadium, now under construction.
03:45Expected to host matches at the 2027 FIFA Under-20 World Cup,
03:51it is designed to serve Uzbek sport long afterwards.
03:54The contractor has set an ambitious 16-month construction target.
04:00So, right now, we are working as a two shifts, day and night, totally.
04:05We reached to the 1,600 workers, and beside, we have more than 50 engineers and architects.
04:12The city's design also considers how people will move around it every day.
04:19One thing that you need to know about Tashkent is that the people of the Uzbek capital love their cars.
04:25But today is not that day, because I gave the car a day off.
04:30With 18 km of roads complete, the plan also includes cycling routes and public transport.
04:37The 15-minute city model aims to put schools, parks, and essential services within a short work or cycle of
04:44home.
04:44Beyond the billions, the goal is a city people will want to call home.
04:50Of course the kannst du trains with food and Näht conversation about.
04:53Yes We could move back.
04:59with 19 km of roads complete.
04:59We would split is already big enough that комп to charge
04:59By deep enough, the inspectors are thelochen symposium,
04:59Vielen Dank.
