Length – 33,6 km

Project is divided in two Lots.

LOT I - new alignment of Choloki-Sarpi road with length 12,4 km  - existing alignment of Chakvi-Makhinjauri road with length 1,3 km  - in total 13,7 km

LOT II –18.9km section of Kobuleti Bypass Road (km12-km31)

E-70 highway, passing through seaside cities of Adjara is distinguished with highest intensity;  it has caused inconvenience to local population and tourists within the years.

As a result of construction of respective road, traffic from Adjara coast line would be shifted into a new road, thus will promote to ecological advancement and tourist development in the region.
