    All restrictions lifted at checkpoint on Russian-Georgian border


    May 07, 2011 | 15:44

    All restrictions regarding size and passenger traffic of vehicles have
    been removed at Upper Lars checkpoint on the Russian-Georgian border.

    Restrictions imposed due to bad weather conditions were also lifted
    starting from May 7, Armenia's Transport and Communication Ministry
    informed Armenian News-NEWS.am.

    Traffic on roads leading to the border was blocked on April 12 due to
    bad weather conditions.

    The Upper Lars is the only Armenia's overland commercial rout to
    Russia. It was reopened after three years' break on March 1, 2010
    under the mediation of Swiss Embassy. Around 7,000 people, 50 buses
    and 500 vehicles cross the checkpoint every day.
