Motorway to connect Armenia to Georgian Black Sea

The Asian Development Bank (ADB) envisages allotting USD 1 million for carrying out a feasibility study for a projected motorway which would connect Armenia with the Georgian Black Sea coast. This issue was discussed during a meeting between the President of ADB and Minister of Transport and Communications Gurgen Sarkisian. Tranches of funds will be allotted gradually.

Minister Sarkisian highlighted the importance of the motorway for Armenia as a means of transporting goods. ADB is also interested in constructing Iran-Armenia railways.
