YEREVAN, APRIL 22, NOYAN TAPAN. The two-sided linking of
Heratsi-"Saralanj" transport node's tunnel, which is being constructed
with funds of the Lincy Foundation, was done in the presence of the
Armenian president Serge Sargsian on April 22. The transport node
is being built under the Restoration of Yerevan Streets program. The
tunnel is 180 meter in length.
It is envisaged putting it in operation in mid August.
According to Edward Bezoyan, director of the Lincy Foundation "Road
Construction Programs" Implementation Office, roads of the total
lenghth of 83 km were built and repaired in Shirak and Aragatsotn
marzes under the road construction program, which was implemented with
Lincy Foundation's funds and completed last year. The total cost of
the program made 16 million dollars.
The 20.9 million-dollar program "Restoration of Yerevan Streets"
includes three important highways: Tigran the Great Avenue was put
into operation in November 2007, while restoration of Komitas Avenue
will finish this summer.
E. Bezoyan said that Heratsi-"Saralanj" higway is part of a small rig
road (linking Heratsi and Avetisian Streets) that bypasses downtown
Yerevan.
There will be three big transport structures there, three of which
have been almost completed. The construction cost of the higway is 6
billion drams (over 19.35 mln uSD), that of the tunnel is 1 billion
drams. The water pipe supplying water to the center of Yerevan is
being repaired in parallel with construction of the highway.
Serge Sargsian also visited school No 56, which was in accident
condition and is now being reconstructed with funds of the Lincy
Foundation. The "School Construction" Programs Implementation Office
director Hrayr Sargsian said that this 20 million-dollar program
is being implemented in Yerevan and 5 marzes (10 schools are being
reconstructed, including 5 schools in marzes). 80% of the work has
been done, and it is planned to finish the reconstruction work in
September. In the words of H. Sargsian, the schools are reconstructed
with the aim of bringing them into line with requirements of 12-year
educational system. The schools will have local heating systems and
will be provided with equipment.
