Nazran district
Nazran district

The Nazran District was established in 1924 as part of the Ingush Autonomous Region. Being part of the North Ossetian ASSR in 1944-1957, it had another name - Kosta-Khetagur. And after the collapse of the Chechen-Ingush ASSR in 1991-1992, it became part of Ingushetia. It received municipal status only in 2009. It is now divided into two parts due to the configuration of the territory. The district is located in the central and western parts of the republic and borders from the north with the Malgobek district, from the east - with the Sunzha, from the south and west - with the Republic of North Ossetia - Alania. About 100,000 people live on the territory of the district, including internally displaced persons from the RNO-Alania numbering 1,336 people, as well as internally displaced persons from the Chechen Republic - only 368 people. On the territory of the district flow rivers Sunzha, Surkhohi and Nazranka. Also an important water body of the area is the Alkhanchurt Canal. In Nazran district there are 30 educational institutions, including secondary, general and primary schools, as well as 1 hospital-stationary for 35 beds and 10 outpatient clinics. The region has developed agriculture: there are 8 state unitary enterprises, two agricultural cooperatives and 268 farms. There are 8,190 hectares of arable land on the balance sheet.

Road safety prevention campaigns were held in Nazran.

In anticipation of the new school year, traffic police officers of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Republic of Ingushetia stepped up their road safety efforts in Nazran.

Officers from the traffic police's publicity department, together with Nazran traffic police officers and members of the young traffic inspectors' squad from Secondary School No. 17, held the campaigns "Driver, Let the Pedestrian Pass" and "Save a Life! Slow Down!"

The main goal of these events is to draw the attention of drivers and pedestrians to their mutual responsibility on the road and to remind them of simple rules that help protect life and health.

Drivers were reminded of the need to:

— slow down before pedestrian crossings;

— give way to pedestrians;

— be especially careful near schools and public transportation stops;

— avoid rash maneuvers and overtaking;

— obey the speed limit.

State Traffic Inspectorate officers reminded pedestrians that they should only cross the road at crosswalks, after ensuring it is safe to do so. At night, the use of reflective elements is recommended.

With the start of the school year, the number of children on the city streets will increase. Therefore, the State Traffic Inspectorate urges all road users to be attentive, obey the rules, and remember: road safety begins with everyone's responsibility.
