The 1st stage of studies for the establishment of a modern alternative household waste landfill has been completed. Such a statement made today the Mayor of Tbilisi.

According to Kakha Kaladze, several locations within a 50-km radius of Tbilisi have been identified, and the selected areas are currently under examination to facilitate the project’s launch.

“Tbilisi City Hall is collaborating with the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, which has provided specialized expertise for the process. The existing household waste landfill does not meet modern standards and residents of the Didi Lilo settlement have voiced complaints about unsanitary conditions for many years”, - said the Mayor.
