People with disabilities and the elderly will soon have the possibility to move more comfortably throughout the capital city thanks to elevators being fitted in a number of underground passages.
Tbilisi City Hall administration announced in the first stage of the project elevators will be installed in two underground access ways, for which 150 000 GEL had been allocated.
Construction of the first elevator was almost complete at the underground passageway near the Opera and Ballet Theatre.
Only electrical work has still to finish and after that, the elevator will come into force.
The installation of a second elevator was planned in the underground passage near Vake Park on Tamarashvili St.
At this site preparation works were almost completed and installation of the elevator will start in the near future, authorities said.
