YEREVAN, September 30. /ARKA/. Reconstruction of a major transport interchange has begun in the Noragavit district of Yerevan, the capital's mayor, Tigran Avinyan, announced.
"Construction work has started at the intersection of Artashat Highway, the M2 highway, the H8 road, and Noragavit’s 1st Street. This section is one of the busiest at the capital's southern entrance, where severe traffic jams and accidents have been recorded for years," Avinyan noted in a social media video.
According to the mayor, the project costs approximately 1.5 billion drams and has a 16-month implementation timeline. It is being carried out with the support of the Armenian government.
The project involves organizing traffic across multiple levels. Plans include the construction of a 272-meter overpass, as well as two viaducts measuring 28 and 22 meters in length.
Avinyan noted that once the work is complete, traffic flows—specifically those entering Yerevan, leaving the city, and passing through in transit—will be separated.
"This should reduce the load on the capital's southern entrance and improve transport connections with the North-South Highway. Furthermore, it is expected to enhance safety and reduce travel times for residents of Noragavit and the surrounding areas," Avinyan said. ($1 — 363.18 drams).
