Borijar Street in Rakatboshi neighborhood of Tashkent's Yakkasaray district has been renamed Beijing Street, according to the Sept. 25 decision by the Tashkent City Council of People's Deputies.
The decision approves a proposal by the Yakkasaray district administration to rename the street. The proposal was first considered at a June 29 meeting of the Tashkent city commission on naming and renaming geographical features.
Addresses of properties on the street will be updated to reflect the change. The Tashkent city department of the Chamber of State Cadastres has been ordered to complete the work within two months and to notify people whose addresses have changed.
The city's Main Urban Improvement Department must, within three months, replace street signs and signboards to reflect the new name. The Yakkasaray district administration and other responsible bodies have been tasked with amending relevant documents and conducting public outreach on the new name. The decision took effect on the day it was officially published.
It was reported earlier that part of Abdulla Qodiriy Street in Tashkent will be named after Mustafa Kemal Ataturk.
