YEREVAN, November 30. /ARKA/. The Yerevan municipality said today that 251 new elevators out of the planned 500 for this year have already been installed in high-rise residential buildings. The municipality reminded that only 20 elevators in high-rise residential buildings had been replaced over the past 30 years before the municipality launched this project.
The tender for the purchase of 500 elevators worth 5 billion drams was completed in the summer of 2020, after which the process of their installation began. The project is fully implemented under co-financing and government subsidies.
The elevators are equipped with special clamps for visually impaired persons, an audible warning system, and convenient devices for use by people in wheelchairs.
According to the mayor's office, more than 4,400 elevators operate in Yerevan today, most of which were installed in 1956-1993 and need to be replaced, since their service life is 25 years
The municipality also announced the completion of the second stage of the project to install 674 LED lamps in Yerevan implemented jointly with the United Nations Development Program in Armenia.
This year, energy-saving LED lamps were installed also in the administrative districts of Davitashen and Nubarashen, as well as on several other streets. The next step in ensuring safe traffic is to equip bridges and overpasses with LED lamps. -0-
