During the war the roads in the region of Martuni were badly damaged
by shelling. Over the past 15 years the roads were partly repaired but
their state remains poor. "If you watch you will see that much work
has been done," Ararat Suleimanyan, chief architect of the region of
Martuni, told the reporter of the Azat Artsakh.
"Some roads become impassable in bad weather. Martuni-Nngi-Stepanakert
and 10 community roads are in line to be repaired. 40 million drams
was allocated for the repair, which is up by 5 million compared with
last year," Suleimanyan said. The 20 km road connecting the villages
of Karmir Shuka and Chartar will be repaired this year. Last year the
government provided 390 million drams for this road, this year the
government provided another 790 million. "Unfortunately, road building
on Diasporan benefactors is confined to the Karmir Shuka-Shekher
section of the North-South highway. We offered a proposal to repair
the 8 km Sos-Amaras road but I am not going to tell you the details
yet," Ararat Suleimanyan said.
