As part of preparations for the COP29 climate event scheduled to be held in Baku from 11 to 22 November, traffic monitoring is being implemented to ensure smooth and safe road traffic management throughout the event.
Specifically, traffic monitoring activities will be carried out on October 19 from 11:00 to 15:30 in the city center, focusing on designated hospitality venues for conference participants, Heydar Aliyev Center, and Heydar Aliyev International Airport. During this period, the movement of shuttles and special vehicles designated for COP29 will be tested.
More than 20 vehicles and 15 shuttles participated in the COP29 transport monitoring conducted by the COP29 Azerbaijan OC, Ministry of Interior and Azerbaijan Land Transport Agency. It should be noted that the intra-city monitoring process is implemented without traffic restrictions. The main purpose of conducting this monitoring is to test the movement patterns of designated transport vehicles that will be used during the COP29 event and prepare for potential traffic congestion management.
About 350 specially trained COP29 volunteers are also participating in the process of assessing mission readiness during the conference.
Monitoring will be conducted with partial road restrictions from 02:30 to 04:30 on 20 October. This phase will include designated shuttles, taxis and special service vehicles to the event venue, Central Hotel. Baku Stadium and Heydar Aliyev International Airport.
