A large-scale infrastructure project has been completed in Tbilisi with the full rehabilitation of Kakutsa Cholokashvili and Giorgi Tsereteli streets in the Vake district.
The works, covering a 13,000-square-metre area from Vake Park to Tskhneti Highway N6, included a complete renewal of underground utilities and the installation of modern road infrastructure.
Tbilisi Mayor Kakha Kaladze, accompanied by Deputy Mayor Giorgi Tkemaladze and Assembly Chairman Zurab Abashidze, inspected the completed project.
“The conditions here were extremely poor. We began by fully renewing and reorganizing the underground utilities. Within the project, we also installed underground waste bins, lighting poles, and carried out landscaping. Despite the challenges and 24-hour shifts, this project has been completed thanks to the patience of local residents and the hard work of our teams. We will continue to develop and build the city, as many more important projects are planned,” said Kaladze.
The rehabilitation included the replacement of water supply, sewerage, drainage, and gas networks, as well as the underground placement of electrical cables. Pavements and asphalt surfaces were laid, and a reinforced concrete retaining wall was built near Vake cemetery for safety.
Modern, energy-efficient LED lighting was installed along both streets, together with around 40 underground waste bins, new road markings, traffic signs, and smart traffic lights. The infrastructure was also adapted for people with special needs.
Landscaping completed the project, with irrigation systems, 180 new tree seedlings, and 2,100 square meters of grass cover added along the streets.
The GEL 24 million project was carried out by the Urban Infrastructure Development Service, the Transport and Urban Development Agency, Tbilservice Group, and the Environmental Protection Service. The renovated streets now link the rehabilitated Chavchavadze Avenue with Tskhneti Highway, creating a modern, fully organized transport and residential zone.
Tbilisi City Hall says the new infrastructure ensures greater comfort and safety for pedestrians, public transport, and private vehicles.
