Samotlorneftegaz Volunteers and Movement of the First Open Reconstructed Boulevard in Nizhnevartovsk
18 October 2023
In Nizhnevartovsk, a boulevard has been opened on the banks of the river Ob after extensive reconstruction. The project to improve the urban environment was implemented with the support of Samotlorneftegaz under the cooperation agreement between Rosneft and the Government of the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous District — Yugra. The total length of the reconstructed walking area is more than one kilometre.
Rosneft implements social projects aimed at creating favourable living conditions in the regions where it operates. Among other things, it supports initiatives to create a good urban environment.
At the opening ceremony of the boulevard, Samotlorneftegaz employees together with participants of the Russian movement of children and youth «Movement of the First» organised an art exhibition of children's drawings «Nizhnevartovsk. City of the Future». Fifth graders of the Pushkin Lyceum No. 1, founded with the support of Rosneft, presented their own vision of the development of the Samotlor capital.
Young volunteers joined students from the Nizhnevartovsk Rosneft class to plant their own trees on the boulevard. In total, Samotlorneftegaz planted more than 1.2 thousand trees and shrubs in public areas during the summer season.
The reconstruction of the boulevard took advantage of the landscape to create different functional areas at different levels. The embankment boulevard is home to the city's largest open-air exhibition complex for permanent and temporary exhibitions, as well as an amphitheatre that will be a venue for the city's folk and music groups.
Children's playgrounds are equipped with modern play complexes, including those for children with disabilities. A large area is devoted to the Sculpture Zoo, where life-size bronze sculptures acquaint visitors with the fauna of the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous District — Yugra.
One of the main attractions of the reconstructed area was a special viewing platform with a panoramic view of the river and Nizhnevartovsk.
A jogging track, a two-lane cycle path and a promenade have been laid out along the entire coastline for active recreation.
