Sergei Sobyanin held a traditional public reception

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

Sergei Sobyanin Held a personal citizen's reception at the Russian Presidential Executive Office. Residents were able to ask questions in person and via videoconference.

Alexey Kanaykin, CEO of Fora LLC, requested that the construction of a children's and adult clinic near Zeninskoye Highway in the Nekrasovka district be completed and commissioned as soon as possible. He also requested that a trauma department and a dental clinic be opened at the facility.

Sergei Sobyanin noted that major changes are taking place in Nekrasovka: a metro station has been built, a sports center has been established, a large shopping center is nearing completion, and comprehensive improvements are underway. A special economic zone with industrial and high-tech enterprises and jobs has been created nearby.

Much attention is also paid to the development of healthcare.

"You're right that Nekrasovka's population is growing rapidly. Moreover, we have residents in the Moscow region surrounding Nekrasovka who actively use the social and cultural facilities in Nekrasovka. We've reconstructed and are completing the renovation of virtually all of Nekrasovka's outpatient clinics, both for adults and children, which will certainly improve the quality of care. We've seen, at your request, the need to build an additional new outpatient clinic in Nekrasovka. Construction is underway. Construction is scheduled for completion in 2026 and launch in the first quarter of 2027. But I'll ask my colleagues to expedite the project so that it can be opened by the end of next year," the Moscow Mayor promised.

He added that Nekrasovka is one of the most difficult areas of the capital.

"It wasn't built quite to modern standards, so to speak. Many issues were overlooked. The result was a residential area, but a bedroom community in the worst sense of the word. Therefore, we have done everything possible to ensure Nekrasovka is—and is—becoming a modern, normal district of Moscow. A fully functional one, with new jobs, good social and cultural amenities, and excellent landscaping. And we will continue to work on this," said the Moscow Mayor.

Sergei Sobyanin also spoke with Anastasia Yakovleva, CEO of Lidness LLC. She requested that construction of a multi-level intercepting ground parking facility with 300 spaces near the Rasskazovka transport hub in the Vnukovo district be completed as soon as possible. Anastasia noted that several changes have occurred in the years since the area became part of the capital. big changesWell-maintained parks and roads have appeared. The improvements attract new residents, many of whom commute to work by metro, but in the mornings, there aren't enough parking spaces.

"Rasskazovka is essentially a transfer station where you can transfer from your personal car to the metro. Therefore, we will develop the transport hub. We have begun construction of a new multi-level parking garage. We will complete it by the end of 2026, perhaps even earlier. But not too far away, on the border with Novo-Peredelkino, another multi-level parking garage with 800 spaces is being built, along with a surface parking lot with 70-80 spaces. So the situation there will improve. And we will certainly complete this parking garage. I will oversee it," said Sergei Sobyanin.

Four sports complexes have been built in the south of the capital using city funds since 2020.A sports complex and technology park will be built in the Vnukovo district, according to Sergei Sobyanin.

Elena Tretyakova, HR Manager at Pension-19 LLC, approached the Mayor of Moscow with a request to build a roller ski track near the Novaya Zvezda Biathlon Center in the Mitino district. She is raising three sons, two of whom are professional biathletes. She thanked the Mayor for his assistance in constructing the Novaya Zvezda Biathlon Center.

According to Sergei Sobyanin, given the short winter season, the city is building tracks with artificial snow to help athletes maintain their fitness. The Moscow mayor explained that the area where the roller ski track is planned is located in the Moscow region.

"And, of course, we had to work quite hard to create this track. Because the track itself is in such a state—ravines, landslides, dead wood, and so on. A thorough hydrological study and so on were necessary. Plus, the project itself is quite complex; this track is over 10 kilometers long. Essentially, it's an engineering structure across all these ravines. But nevertheless, we're finishing the project. I think we'll have the roller ski track built by 2027," the Moscow Mayor said.

Anna Valts, general director of a beauty salon, urged the Moscow Mayor to expedite the opening of a women's health center on Aleksandrovka Street in the Kryukovo district. She noted that the capital is implementing a new standard of medical care for women. Women's health centers offer patients all types of medical care in one place—from preparing for childbirth to maintaining their health. This significantly reduces the number of visits to other hospitals or clinics.

The Moscow Mayor noted that the construction of women's health centers is a very important and necessary undertaking. This requires significant capital investment, including the renovation of old buildings or the construction of new ones, the purchase of necessary equipment, and personnel.

"Many existing antenatal clinics are located in adapted spaces, have sufficient equipment, and are essentially disconnected from maternity hospitals, perinatal centers, and large clinics. So, a woman has to go first to the antenatal clinic, then to the hospital, and then to the maternity hospital. These are all different teams of people, and seamless care—from diagnosis to treatment—isn't possible. Moreover, sometimes a mother needs the help of not only the maternity hospital but also a multifunctional center. This ensures that her health is monitored. We have planned to build such a center in Zelenograd on the premises of the perinatal center. Extensive work is currently underway. Essentially, a new building is being erected on the site of the old one. The building's layout is being changed, and a complete renovation is underway. I hope that we will complete this renovation and create this center within a short timeframe," promised Sergei Sobyanin.

Individual entrepreneur Artem Besedin also appealed to the Moscow Mayor, asking for the expedited completion of construction and the opening of the Central Sports Arena at the E.A. Streltsov Sports Complex in the Danilovsky District. He noted that the capital places great emphasis on sports, and football is one of the most popular.

Sergei Sobyanin recalled that the capital has reconstructed famous stadiums and is opening new ones sports complexesReconstruction work at Torpedo Stadium is almost 70 percent complete.

"We insisted that the investors not only restore, but essentially build, a new, modern Torpedo Streltsov Stadium, as they had requested. It's already in fairly advanced condition. About 70 percent of the construction work is complete. I was there recently and looked around. The stadium is very beautiful and wonderful. Much better than what was there before. This is a stadium that meets all the necessary requirements of both FIFA and the Russian Football Union. So, not only will training be held in the main arena, the training arena, but it will also be able to host high-quality, major competitions. There's no longer any threat to this; on the contrary, we're looking forward to all the work being completed next year. I hope that by the end of next year, the Streltsov Central Sports Arena will be up and running and will once again delight both fans and athletes," the Moscow Mayor noted.

Sobyanin spoke about a comprehensive approach to developing healthcare in Moscow.State-of-the-art medical facilities will be built in the capital between 2026 and 2028.
