ArmInfo. Georgian ambassador to Azerbaijan proved the information that
realization of Baku-Tbilisi-Kars railway project may be delayed. As
APA reported, Ambassador Nikoloz Nadbiladze told today the press
conference that the completion of the project may be delayed because
of the August happenings and some technical problems.

Director of Marabda-Kartsakhi Railway Ltd. Bidzina Bregadze told
Georgian mass media that the work had gone out of schedule because
of some technical problems. He said while constructing the tunnel
linking Georgia and Turkey, it became known that the area had a
danger of slip. "Therefore it is necessary to change the project,"
he said. The project cost over $600 million. Azerinsaatservis is
constructing Georgian-part of the railway. A 76km long railway will
be laid in Turkey as part of Baku-Tbilisi-Kars Rail Link.
