During the analysis, he managed to increase the amount of funds that will be directed to solving the transport problem in the capital. So, it was originally planned to spend 60 billion rubles, and after the audit, the figure increased by more than three times. Among the medium-term tasks, Sobyanin named the formation of an automated traffic control system based on innovative technologies. Until the end of 2011it was planned to prepare its main elements.

Criticism
As many analysts note, under Sergei Sobyanin, despite his statements, the practice of liquidating historical structures continued to provide space for new construction. For this activity, Luzhkov, the previous head of the city, was also criticized quite strongly. Thus, Rustam Rakhmatullin, who coordinated the Arkhnadzor movement in 2013, noted that the arrival of Sobyanin's team did not make serious changes in attitudes towards the preservation of architectural monuments. Corrections were made only in the declaration. According to Rakhmatullin, the destruction of structures continued, but not at such a fast pace and in a paradoxical way, since the declarations were changed.
Reducing the intensity of construction in the center of the capital, he associated with the outflow of funds due to the crisis and the long-term demand of society. At the same time, Rakhmatullin expressed a negative attitude towards the appointment of Kazints, a large developer, the owner of the Barkley corporation, as Sobyanin's assistant. The latter is known for the fact that at one time he proposed to demolish 70% of the old city. Rakhmatullin made the administrative apparatus of the capital responsible for the destruction of such historical monuments as the Volkonsky house, the Shakhovsky-Glebov-Streshnev estate, the Children's World on Lubyanka, the complex of the Novo-Ekaterininskaya hospital, the Cathedral Mosque.
