thousand people and a highway connected to Ulaanbaatar, and 9479 households will
reside in the city. An economic zone and high technology industry will be established in the satellite city. Moreover, it is estimated that seven schools with capacities
of 960 children, 12 kindergartens with capacities of 280 children, one vocational
training centre with a capacity of 640 students, and 330-bed central hospital need
to be built in the Aero city during the planning period.
The general
plan will be implemented in four stages over a period of 20 years.
