Project Overview

This transformative infrastructure project introduces the second transport ring around Yerevan's center. The initiative expands existing highways from Aygestani 12th Street to Tsovakal Isakov Avenue through strategic construction of bridges and overpasses.

Traffic-Free Circulation

The new transport ring operates completely independent of traffic light regulation. This design ensures continuous traffic flow and reduces urban congestion throughout the central district.

Highway Expansion Strategy

The project involves comprehensive expansion of connecting roadways between major arterial points. Strategic bridge and overpass construction enables seamless traffic distribution without disrupting existing urban fabric.

Urban Development Impact

Implementation creates significant opportunities for new green spaces and public areas. The improved transport connectivity drives economic growth while enabling better distribution of traffic flows throughout the metropolitan area.

Investment Opportunities

Enhanced transport infrastructure attracts new investment and development projects. The improved connectivity upgrades the existing housing stock while maximizing the spatial potential of underutilized urban areas.

Regional Connectivity

The completed transport ring provides a comprehensive and fully developed transport connection system. This infrastructure improvement supports both current traffic demands and future urban expansion requirements.

Environmental Benefits

Reduced traffic congestion in central areas allows for the creation of pedestrian-friendly zones. New green spaces emerge in previously traffic-dominated areas, improving air quality and urban livability throughout Yerevan.
