At present, 40 areas are being reconstructed, including Luzhniki, Zariadie, Nagatino park for children, the embankment in the area of the Moscow-City.

«For the first time, here, Krasnopresnenskaya embankment was prolonged across the railway, the Mayor said, now it is to be prolonged towards Shelepikhinskaya embankment.

In three-four years 10 km of embankment on both sides of the river will be reconstructed and built anew, abandoned industrial areas will be renovated, and a new comfortable area will be created. Kutuzovsky avenue will be integrated with the City transportation hub, and the side-lanes to Krasnopresnenskaya embankments – with the Third Ring Road.

At present, the Moscow-river embankment line is 200 km long, its largest part being occupied with industrial areas. It is to be improved and turned into leisure areas.
