"This is the practical phase of the Crossroads of Peace project." Nikol Pashinyan

“A section of the road to Nrnadzor coincides with the former location of the railway lines, and since we are planning to open regional communications, this is the practical stage of these works. In other words, this is the preparatory work necessary for the implementation of our “Crossroads of Peace” project, which is concrete,” said Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan, speaking about the construction of a new highway from the Kapan-Tsav road in Syunik to Nrnadzor.

According to him, this is one of the practical steps that creates an alternative road for the settlement while simultaneously freeing up the section intended for the railway. “The railway has no other option to pass; it can only pass through that section, so we are freeing up that area to make the railway construction possible,” he said.

According to the Prime Minister, the construction of this new road will begin and be completed in 2025.
