Design and geological works are underway for 300 m long section of Stapantsminda-Trinity Church access road (L=5.6 km) in Kazbegi Municipality, which is damaged because of disaster.

Upon identification of the problem, Roads Department took immediate response actions in terms of road safety and one-way traffic is maintained on damaged section. Representatives of Technical Division of the Department, design organizations and geologists urgently visited the site and studied the situation in details. Appropriate measures shall be planned to address the problems caused by natural disaster and preventive works will start in several days.  One-way traffic flow shall be maintained during the works.

  “We studied the existing situation on-site together with the representatives of design organizations and geologists.  Design works have already been commenced in terms of disaster prevention and clean-up operations. Reinstatement of damaged section will start concurrently next week. As for the problem solution in full, works will continue for several months” – stated Mr. Giorgi Tsereteli, Deputy Chairman of Roads Department.

It should be noted that additional works would not overprice the project value and would not require spending of additional resources from the budget. Upgrading of damaged section will be financed from the original project amount considered for quality assurance – to the extent of 5%, which is deducted for this purpose from the contractor’s payables.
