With the rapid development of the transportation system and the active implementation of modern solutions around the world, the Kyrgyz Republic is experiencing a relative stagnation in this area. The obsolescence of standards and approaches poses some challenges to introducing modern solutions and implementing them in the field of transportation in the country. This paper will explore and offer viable and sustainable approaches and active mobility solutions to solving problems in public transportation system and traffic light regulation during power outage on the road network of Bishkek city. First, In public transportation issue, the solution can be in found in delineating responsibilities among key three parties: the private bus operators, government, and financial institutions. Second, traffic light control experiencing power shortages is causing big stagnation on the road network, which is dangerous especially during winter. The solution for this can be an autonomous power supply by using solar panels and having batteries, enable to operate completely autonomously for up to 4 hours and transmit real-time traffic data using Long Range Wide Area Network (LoRaWAN) technologies. Third, the need of active mobility infrastructure can also be in providing the safe bike lanes, taking into account cultural realities, the local mentality and physical infrastructure standards. All these viable solutions are deemed practically necessary, cost-effective, and considered sustainable and can serve as a sustainable framework solution to some common mobility problems in the country or the region.
