Moscow reports that 188 integrated regional development projects are advancing at various stages of implementation. These initiatives, known locally as CTD programs, form a broad modernization effort across the capital and its surrounding areas. The scale of activity reflects a sustained push to upgrade infrastructure, housing, and public services in tandem with urban growth.
The current year marks a turning point in turning planning into tangible results. The city government has issued numerous decisions to reorganize and optimize select regions, accelerating the pace of execution. At present, 52 projects are actively being implemented, a figure that is more than double what was observed at the start of the year. This trend underscores a deliberate shift toward practical outcomes and measurable progress on the ground.
In terms of construction volume, Moscow is poised to deliver substantial development across the city. More than 13 million square meters of new construction will come online, including residential, commercial, and mixed-use spaces. As these projects come to fruition, new districts with fully developed infrastructure will emerge in 42 city areas, expanding housing choices and employment opportunities for residents and newcomers alike.
Investment in new facilities also remains a priority. Over 2.1 million square meters are being allocated for high-tech industries, complemented by more than 3.9 million square meters dedicated to public, business, and social facilities. This combination aims to strengthen the city’s economic base while improving access to essential services for communities across Moscow.
Education infrastructure is a central element of the plan. Schools and kindergartens are being built to serve approximately 5,000 students in districts where more than 10,200 young people live. The emphasis on education supports long-term growth and ensures that rising generations have access to modern learning environments and resources.
Another core component of the renewal framework involves the KRT program, which envisions more than 7 million square meters of new area coming into use. In addition, a housing component sized at at least 2.6 million square meters is reserved for participants in the renewal program, helping to relocate residents and integrate new housing opportunities within existing neighborhoods. Overall, the plan reflects a coordinated push to modernize both infrastructure and living spaces across the capital. The total investment in KRT projects is projected to reach about 4.1 trillion rubles, signaling a long-term commitment to urban transformation and regional development.
