He provided details about the fortification works of outdated buildings, the arrangement of recreational areas expanding across 65 hectares and the addition of 200 new buses to the municipal transport fleet.

Kaladze went on to say that Tbilisi City Hall implemented youth educational, entertainment and leisure programs, arranged exhibitions, festivals, conferences and activated the program in support of small and medium-sized businesses.

He remarked that the Tbilisi Kindergartens Management Agency served approximately 60 thousand kids through 190 kindergartens; TbilServiceGroup agreed on the purchase of modern 45 special vehicles valued at 17 million GEL.

According to Kaladze, a total of 54 modern underground bins were installed on the rehabilitated roads. Drainage networks were installed and rehabilitated at 239 locations across Tbilisi; Tbilisi Municipal Inspection reviewed over 1,625 cases of construction rule violations.
