Urban Construction Issues
In 2008-2009, the construction of the new "Achapniak" underground
station will be completed in Yerevan.
Yervand Zakharian, Mayor of Yerevan City, said this at today's press
conference. He said that the construction of "Achapniak" underground
station began few years ago, but wasn't completed because of the lack
of financial sources. According to the plans of the previous years,
about $22 million were required for the construction works. In 2007,
new project account documents will be elaborated for the construction
works. As for the transport issues, Zakharian said that in September
2006, new 76 "Bogdan" mini busses will be brought to Yerevan. Besides,
25 new Russian trolley busses will be purchased for the capital. Each
of the trolley busses costs $70 thousand. The Mayor's Office also
envisages to complete the renovation works of the bus stations, 100 of
which will be exploited already in September. In total, AMD 1,6 billion
of work was carried out in the sphere of the capital's transport.
