/PanARMENIAN.Net/ A legal framework has not yet developed to pass
to toll roads in Armenia and there is no relevant experience in this
sphere, RA Transport and Communications Minister Gurgen Sargsyan told
a press conference in Yerevan today.

According to transport minister, this issue has been repeatedly
discussed in the government and parliament of Armenia. He recalled
that the Armenian prime minister instructed the Ministry of Economy
to develop a draft law, and only after a thorough discussion of the
issue the issue of passage to toll roads can be decided. There is no
experience with toll roads in the entire region, except the single
tunnel in Georgia charging a symbolic fee, he added.
