5.5.2. The catalyst for the improvement of public infrastructure was the successfully implemented Concept for the Development of the Regions, which emphasized the points of growth of regions where accelerated economic development is accompanied by justified infusions into the basic infrastructure. The round-the-clock coverage of clean water for 80% of the population, access to sanitation for 50% of the population is provided. The percentage of international, state and local roads with hard surface will be brought to 60%, with the commissioning of 5,000 kilometers of new roads. With the introduction of new toll roads, revenues from international transit will sharply increase. Taking into account the construction of social housing and support of the construction industry, the provision of housing per person should reach 18 square meters. 100% coverage is provided for high-speed access to the Internet, in all localities and 100% coverage for digital broadcasting. The number of international and domestic flights, including those for small aircraft, has significantly increased, and the role of international transit has increased. The system of public transport has undergone important structural changes in large cities, facilitating everyday life of people. 5.5.3. Urban development should be orderly and take into account the basic needs of citizens, including not only critical areas, but also leisure, physical culture and socialization. The urban space is not developed for cars, but for people and public transport. The result should be a comfortable and non-discriminating space for pedestrians, with a developed bicycle network. Clean air, clean transport are an integral part of the urban environment. Along with the preservation and expansion of access to nature in the urban environment - forest park areas, lakes and reservoirs, rivers and coastal zones - the development of nearby natural and recreational resources. Priorities 5.5.1. Under the current conditions, the priorities of urbanization, consolidation and control of the use of resources and focus on the economic sustainability of infrastructure projects should become the main objectives of the Program. Existing sectoral and national projects containing elements of the infrastructure that continue beyond 2017 should be revised taking into account the reorientation to human needs, optimization opportunities, synergies and linkage to national development goals. 5.5.2. It is important to implement the pilot stage of the Concept of Regional Development and its subsequent expansion to 20 supporting cities and adjacent support territories, closely linking the economic base for keeping the population with the development of public infrastructure. The development principles of small towns should be carefully prepared development plans for the best international standards, strict zoning and vertical construction, which reduces the transformation of arable land for housing construction. It is assumed that the idle resources (land and buildings in state ownership) will be effectively used for the needs of the public 42
