Suyumbike Avenue

The construction of Suyumbike Avenue was carried out simultaneously with the construction of residential areas of the New City - in the 1970s. Until 1992, this avenue was called “Leninsky,” but at the request of the city commission on toponymy, architecture, and art, it was renamed Syuyumbike Avenue - in honor of the semi-legendary woman in the history of the Bulgars and their descendants, Tatars, Tsarina Syuyumbike (1516–1566) .) - rulers of the Kazan Khanate in 1549-1551 ^[3] .

Suyumbike Avenue is one of the central avenues in the new, north-eastern part of the city of Naberezhnye Chelny. The avenue originates from the intersection with Friendship of Nations Avenue and ends with the intersection with Yashlek Avenue .

Throughout the avenue there are two underground pedestrian crossings, as well as six traffic lights . The traffic intensity on the avenue is 1450 cars / hour, throughput - 3850 cars / hour ^[1] .
