"This year, for the purpose of modernization and repair, we selected a number of infrastructure facilities that were most in need of renovation and reconstruction. In doing so, we were guided, among other things, by feedback from our passengers, indicating the need for one or another renovation.

Preliminary, we will carry out repair work at five stations, which is generally aimed at improving the convenience of using the company's infrastructure," said Grant Mikaelyan, head of the South Caucasus Railway Passenger Directorate.
