YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 8, NOYAN TAPAN. VivaCell-MTS allocated
AMD 15 million to support the village of Geghamavan with
rehabilitation of the protective fence dividing the village and
the River Hrazdan.
According to a press release of VivaCell, the River Hrazdan
flows across the village of Geghamavan - through its populated
territory. The protective fence separating the river banks from
the village built previously dates back to the first half of the
previous century, and was destroyed. Unfortunately, during the
last three decades the fence was unable to prevent 67 casualties
resulting in death of people, 10 of which were cars falling into
the river. Moreover, lots of cattle have fallen into the river
causing considerable material losses to the residents of the
village.ll-MTS,
A 750 meter long protective fence has been built on both banks
of the River Hrazdan, for the part of the river running across the
village. Another part of the fence making 300 meters, will be built
by the end of the year.
