The area is served by rail, air and road transport. Magas airport is also located here, the asphalt Baku-Rostov highway passes. The population of the district is 123,360 people.

Work to protect the Sunzha River from illegal discharges continues.

The city administration conducts regular inspections to detect unauthorized wastewater discharges into the Sunzha River.

Specialists conducted their latest inspections on Suvorov and Rosa Luxemburg Streets. Residents of homes located near the river were given leaflets with information on water protection regulations and penalties for violations.

Previous inspections revealed 47 cases of illegal discharges, including 19 cases of direct sewage discharges. The reports have been submitted to the competent authorities, and some residents have already begun rectifying the violations.

Efforts to improve the river's health continue. Construction of a treatment facility near Engels Street is planned for the future, which will reduce the load on the river.
