Hayastan All-Armenian Fund
Hayastan-All Armenian Fund has signed contracts for procurement of
Vardenis-Martakert road construction with firms having won the tender
carried out on December 9 and 10.
According to the contracts, firms undertaking the construction
projects, will start the road earthwork and engineering works /first
stage/ in January 2014.
Contracts specify the same time period for implementation of the works
on the road with a total length of about 116km, Press Service of the
Hayastan Fund reports.
The Vardenis-Martakert Highway will be of key economic and
humanitarian importance. By functioning as a direct road link, the
highway will become a second lifeline between northern Armenia and
northern Artsakh, significantly cutting down travel times, boosting
the economies of scores of Artsakh communities along its path,
stimulating inter-community ties, and vastly improving geographic
access for implementing local development initiatives.
Currently the only land-travel link between Artsakh and Armenia is the
Berdzor community, through which passes the Goris-Stepanakert Highway.
The Vardenis-Martakert Highway will bring economic benefits to
communities located within up to 20 kilometers on either side of the
route.
