We are pursuing the possibility of transformation in Tehran’s public transportation by producing/building 180,000 housing units for the people


According to the economic correspondent of Fars news agency, Alireza Zakani said today in the gathering of trade union activists in the Tehran Chamber of Trade Unions: It has been a year and a half since we started working in the municipality, during this period the conditions that the municipal administration followed were cooperative management. Because we have to work hand in hand.

The mayor of Tehran stated: We also followed the work based on responsibility and we believe that all the affairs and responsibilities of the city belong to the city management, these responsibilities are directly and indirectly related to the city management.

Zakani stated: We have tried to do our work well and help others, so during this time we have asked others to join hands and help us. So last year, when we entered the area of ​​drug addicts, although the municipality had no responsibility in this regard, we identified five thousand drug addicts and located 2,500 more addicts.

He added: In the field of housing, we are not responsible and the Ministry of Roads is responsible, but since last year, a camp was organized so that we can build 180,000 residential units, and work has started in this field.

He stated: We need help badly because the work is heavy in the urban area.

Zakani stated: In addition to participation and responsibility, we are strongly looking for interaction and we are not looking for a few jobs, so we have extended the horizon of 1420 in the field of transportation and infrastructure to 1407 and 1408.

The mayor of Tehran said: Another feature of ours is based on creating the possibility for transformation. Today, if we want to transform the city’s public transportation, we need 507 thousand billion Tomans, considering the issue of air pollution and other issues. Last year’s government budget was a number of tens of meters for the construction of the subway, so if we want to use public resources, this work will take 100 years.

He reminded: We must be creative to reduce this 100 years to 5 years by creating facilities, and this is possible because we are one of the best in terms of facilities and technology in the region, so we turned to manufacturing and the market and We advance the conditions in such a way that we use all the facilities and do not wait.

Zakani said: We follow work in 3 seasons, one of which is financial discipline, and we try to spend well when we receive good financial opportunities.
He added: “In the past year and a half, we have not borrowed a single Rial and we have not had any financial tension, but we have enjoyed financial stability, and our effort has been to continue whatever has been done in the past, if it was good, and learn from it if it was bad.” And don’t do it.
The mayor of Tehran stated: We are looking for transformation in the city and we are following four transformations. The first transformation we want is urban management to transform from a service institution to a servant institution.
He added: The second transformation is the physical transformation of the city, and in this direction, we are looking to create a transformation on the circuit of architecture, construction and distribution of services, so that now almost all the projects of the city are active.
The mayor of Tehran added: At the beginning of the revolution, Tehran had only 75 parks, but now it has 2,353 parks and more than 60,000 hectares of green space.

* Metro line 6 will be opened next week
He said: The 6 metro line with 9 km length will be opened next week and next year we are strongly looking for the modernization of transportation.
Zakani stated: In fact, the main transformation is the physical transformation of the city, and after that, the software transformation is desired, and the other transformation we want is the technological transformation, so that the city of Tehran becomes a technological city.
He added: We need you for these things and we must join hands.
Saying that the Tehran market is in a dangerous situation, Zakani said: A fire happened in this market a few months ago and it was controlled with difficulty, so the redistribution of services must provide facilities for new conditions to be formed, and in the case of the Tehran market, we need your help. We have because in this way we are the bed builders and you should help.
He added: In 2011, a total of 35 million square meters of construction was done in Tehran, but last year the total construction in Tehran was less than 7 million square meters, and this is despite the fact that we have to provide conditions to be able to withstand earthquakes. be ready
Zakani said: We are strongly looking for transformation and our duty is to help and bring production and services to the highest level in the city, but we expect that you will also actively participate in the management of the city in order to provide Tehran with a Let’s create a new identity such as architecture or economic and even scientific identity.
