In February 2025, residents of the Kuibyshevsky district complained to Ivan Noskov about traffic jams on Belorusskaya, Obuvnaya, and Osetinskaya streets, on the bridge over the Tat«yanka River, and in other areas. Efforts to improve the traffic situation in this location began with the installation of an acceleration lane for the turn from Akademika Tikhomirova Street onto Narodnaya Street. This lane was planned to be created by shifting the sidewalk.
