Overview
- Presenting his annual report, the mayor said Moscow is moving from stand‑alone projects to implementing a comprehensive territorial development program known as KRT.
- Officials have drafted concepts for about 400 KRT projects that target over 70 million square meters of real estate within the existing city and roughly one million new jobs.
- City figures cite more than 47 million square meters of industrial, technopark, retail and office space added in recent years, creating around two million jobs mainly outside the center.
- Accessibility metrics reported by the mayor include grocery stores within walking distance for 97% of residents and nearby access to a broader range of goods for 83%.
- Recent transport steps include tests of five new pontoon berths for electric river vessels and the resumption of tram service on Trifonovskaya Street using trams capable of autonomous running for at least four kilometers, while the city says 80% of new housing is bought by Muscovites with most of the rest purchased by Moscow Region residents.
