Kakha Kaladze: It is a lie that we choose companies - if I had the right to make the decision myself, we would not have the problems that arose during the implementation of various projects

It is a lie that we choose companies. Neither I nor any of my employees can choose the company - if I had the right to make the decision myself, which company should perform the work, we would not have the problems that arose during the implementation of various projects. This is 100% true, - the Mayor of Tbilisi, Kakha Kaladze, said at the meeting of the capital's government.

"Everyone knows very well what such infrastructure projects mean. This means the complete renewal and regularization of communications that have been untouched for tens of years. The situation in terms of communications in the whole city is very difficult. Where we do rehabilitation, we want to fundamentally change everything. Everything changes, all the communications under the ground. Also, it is a sad reality that no one, no company, knows what the situation is in its part, in terms of the communications that exist in the city. When a person looks, they can see broken asphalts, all this is due to the fact that the communication is damaged, water is leaking.

When we start the work, the situation is more difficult than anyone can imagine. Then we often have to deal with unprofessional, unscrupulous companies . It is a lie that we choose companies. Neither I nor any of my employees can choose the company - if I had the right to make the decision myself, which company should perform the work, we would not have the problems that arose during the implementation of various projects. This is 100% true.

In the background of this cacophony, Chavchavadze, Melikishvili, Ketevan Dedofali avenues were renovated, many streets were renovated, historical districts were renovated... I remember how many problems there were in 2017 when I came... I remember thousands of not-responded applications for construction. We do not have any such applications today. Everyone will be responded in time," Kaladze said.
