Almaty is a multi-purpose, economically developed city of the Republic of Kazakhstan with a population of over half a million people. In this regard, in the city of Almaty is very advanced trading and transportation infrastructure. It causes congestion of city vehicles. According to statistics, as of 1 January 2014, the city had registered 505,202 vehicles [1, 47]. According to akim city Almaty, about 200 thousand rail cars a day come to the city [2]. In this regard, strongly increases the total congestion of streets and a growing number of traffic jams. Constant big “influx” of vehicles leads to a sharp deterioration of the ecological situation in the city.
According to RSE “Kazgidromet” in September 2014, the air of the city is characterized by a very high level of contamination [3]. The highest frequency of maximum permissible concentration of impurities was 98.7 % (characterized as a very high level), exactly same time, the standard index of the concentration of nitrogen dioxide is 7.9 (characterized as high level). In addition to environmental conditions, the actual problem there is a simply pavement, which is unable to withstand the test environment. Also according to official statistics, in the city, an ever increasing number of road accidents. So, in 2012 the number was 14,168 units, in 2013, the pace of this figure rose sharply to 23,359 units [1, 58].

Set posts video traffic safety on city streets. High pace of construction of underground stations, having in action five stations and ready for operation 2 new stations of the 1st line, and also plans subway construction 2nd stance metro. Organized municipal taxi fleet consisting of ve-
hicles running on natural gas. In addition, plans for the city, the construction of 13 environmental positions, at the entrance to the city of Almaty [2].
It should be noted that the decree of the President of the Republic of Kazakhstan dated April 16, 2014. No. 798 “About changing the boundaries of the city of Almaty” was expanded boundaries of the city of Almaty, which thereby increased its total area [4]. Joint resolution ofakimat of Almaty city datedJuly 2, 2014. No. 3/522 and the decision of the extraordinary XXIX session of maslikhat ofAlmaty city V convocation onJuly 2, 2014. No. 240 “On education Nauruzbayeva district and establishing the boundaries of districts of Almaty city” [5] the city has a new Nauryzbai district. In this regard, the active development ofnew plans for urban development of the city of Almaty.
An important factor in the resolution of traffic problems is the fact that the international Olympic Committee (IOC) from Almaty city competent authorities the application was filed to receive the 2022 winter Olympics [6].
If the IOC will choose the mountains. Almaty to host the Olympic games, it will contribute to the development of a range of engineering, architectural, political, legal and cultural activities to improve the transport infrastructure of the city.
