Second road section Japana-Lanchkhuti of Samtredia-Grigoleti highway opened
The second, 14-kilometre-long road section Japana-Lanchkhuti of Samtredia-Grigoleti highway has been opened.
Prime Minister Giorgi Gakharia and Vice Prime Minister Maia Tskitishvili attended the opening. The new road reduces travel time by 20-30% and bypasses a tightly settled area.
The road passes Japana, Kviani, Nigoeti and Kvemo Shukhuti villages of Lanchkhuti Municipality in western Guria region.
The project of the highway is financed by European Investment Bank by 254 million GEL. Tender procedures are launched for construction of other sections of the highway. About 70 new roads will be opened within the framework of the project by the end of the year.
