The water shortage was due to the dry climate, which depleted water sources. Dry weather was also the reason that the artificial snow system was not turned on at the resorts.
The coordination group says that as a result of the action plan developed by the Georgian government to improve tourism services in Georgian ski resorts, traffic problems have decreased, road infrastructure has been developed, and additional parking lots have been built at Georgian ski resorts.
The members of the coordination group will leave for the ski resorts after the meeting in order to coordinate and solve the problems in Georgian ski resorts.
An action plan has been developed to address the challenges of ski resorts such as parking lots, traffic jams, intensity of road cleaning works, tourism services, health services and security, announces the press office of the Georgian government.
