The rehabilitation of Rustaveli Avenue is progressing according to plan and, as promised, the work will be completed by the end of November. Such a statement made today Mayor of Tbilisi.

"At this stage, the utility networks are being fully replaced and the pavements are being upgraded. The work has caused some difficulties with getting around, but work on this scale inevitably involves some inconvenience. Once again, I apologise to residents.

We understand that this is difficult. I assure you that, once the project is complete, the avenue will be fully renovated and in good order. We have also reopened the section from Chovelidze Street to Elbakidze Ascent to traffic. One section currently has only the lower layers of asphalt in place, but preparatory work has already begun there, including raising utility manhole covers to the required level so that the final layers of asphalt can be laid", - said kakha Kaladze.
