houses along the eastern road, a school at the end, and a playground to the north. This area is used for
residential purposes. There are plans to build a new road that will cross a river and go north from the
roundabout, with homes on the western side. A parallel road along the river that connects to the
northbound route is proposed, replacing the farmland north of the river with further houses. In
addition, plans include for building a new road northwest of the roundabout and putting homes on one
side of it.

southeast, a medical center is intended to be established. Additionally, there are proposals to introduce
a second roundabout where the south road currently intersects with the main road in a T-shaped
configuration. edited

orbital road at the southern intersection. With regard to plants, all of them will be demolished and
supplanted by accommodations and facilities, such as a playground, a school, a shopping line, and a
