YEREVAN. - Armenia will soon enjoy new border checkpoints with
modern buildings and high level of service, and we have selected the
Bagratashen, Bavra, and Gogavan border checkpoints for the first phase
of this project, Armenian State Revenue Committee (SRC) Chairman Gagik
Khachatryan said, SRC Press Service informed Armenian News.NEWS.am.
According to Khachatryan, the checkpoints will be equipped with latest
technology, and modern procedures will be used for border-crossing.
Reconstruction of the checkpoints is planned to be fully completed
next year.
"The Bagratashen border checkpoint will occupy a 10-hectare area,
and a new bridge will be built on Debed River. Four entry and exit
lanes will be built each way in Bagratashen and Bavra, and thus
4-5 times more vehicles and passengers will be served on a daily
basis. All 3 checkpoints will have special stops and terminals for
vehicles. In addition, special squares are planned, in the Bagratashen
and Bavra checkpoints, for helicopters. And in each area shelters
will be allocated for 6 trained dogs. A fairly large building will
be constructed in Bavra, in a 7.7-hectare area, and the customs
control zone will be 800 meters closer to the Georgian checkpoint,"
Gagik Khachatryan noted.
