Tbilisi Mayor highlights continuous efforts in Tbilisi to maintain roads amid snowfall
According to Tbilisi Mayor Kakha Kaladze, work is ongoing tirelessly to prevent disruptions caused by heavy snowfall across the capital.
During a live broadcast alongside Deputy Mayor Irakli Bendeliani, Kaladze emphasised that the primary focus remains on clearing the central streets of snow, while work also continues on inner roads and dead-end streets.
“All central streets have been cleared. Both private vehicles and public transport are moving smoothly. However, heavy snowfall has posed some challenges. There are areas where public transport cannot reach, especially in remote territories. Internal roads and dead ends will be addressed later. Naturally, our main priority is the main avenues and thoroughfares, but work on internal roads is also progressing.
This effort will continue without pause. I would thank the Tbilservice staff, local government officials, contractor companies, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, 112, and everyone involved in this operation,” the Mayor stated.
Tbilisi Mayor also urged drivers to refrain from travelling without winter tyres to avoid further issues.
Deputy Mayor Irakli Bendeliani echoed this commitment, emphasising that work is ongoing around the clock, involving not only the Tbilservice Group but also local government departments, the City Hall’s Infrastructure Service, and their contractor partners.
“We are clearing central roads and gradually moving to internal streets in a continuous effort. All requests received through the hotline are being addressed. Naturally, it’s impossible to clear every street and alley in Tbilisi immediately, but we are progressing steadily, prioritising key routes. We are prepared to keep the city clear and assist residents 24 hours a day,” said Irakli Bendeliani.
