According to Tbilisi Mayor Kakha Kaladze, a rockfall was observed on a slope of the Chabua Amirejibi highway, Tbilisi, on Monday. As Kaladze noted at Tuesday’s meeting of the capital’s government, the existing nets will be removed and a new modern project will be implemented.
“Yesterday, a rockfall was observed on the rocky slope on the Chabua Amirejibi highway. Although the relevant project was implemented there in the form of protective nets, another project needs to be implemented for the highway to be better protected. The danger has already been completely eliminated. We will start the implementation of further works. Anchoring will be set in place to prevent this problem from happening again. The protective nets that are on these rocks cannot support and contain the fallen mass that was observed. Therefore, a slightly different project will be implemented. We have involved specialists in the field. The nets will be removed and a new modern project will be implemented,” said Kaladze.
As such, for one month from August 16, traffic will be partially restricted in the section from the tunnel leading to Sulkhan Tsintsadze Street to Mikheil Tamarashvili Street on the Chabua Amirejibi highway.
“The works will be carried out on one side of the highway, while it will be possible to move in the other lane,” said Kaladze.
