12:39, 22.12.2020

According to the Roads Department of Georgia, construction of a 51-kilometer road connecting Zemo Imereti-Racha is underway. The route starts from Sachkhere and passes through the Sareki, Kvemo Khevi, Uzunta, Shkmeri, Bokva, Kvashkhieti, Zudali villages, and finally joins the Ambrolauri-Oni road, which is 20 km away from Ambrolauri and 5 km from Oni.

The road connecting Zemo Imereti-Racha is crucial from the socio-economic point of view. The travel time on the 111-kilometer long Sachkhere-Oni route is approximately two hours now. The new Imereti-Racha highway reduces the Sachkhere-Oni travel time by at least one hour.
