The Bishkek City Development Agency is one of the most active government agencies with regard to PPPs, having identified several potential PPP projects. One of the most promising PPP initiatives concerns the necessity of development and operation of complex on-street parking system in the city of Bishkek. Based on the project brief the authorized public agency for PPP, the Ministry of Economy has concluded and recommended to the Bishkek City Development Agency to proceed with the project.

Through its Project Development Support Fund the government of the Kyrgyz Republic has approved funding for the further preparation and implementation of this project initiative. The Bishkek City Administration has awarded to Aninver the contract to provide consulting services to assess the feasibility of the project “Developing and operating of on-street parking system in Bishkek based on Public Private Partnership”.
