BAKU, Azerbaijan, October 14. The transport
infrastructure developed in Garabagh and East Zangezur connects
residential settlements with one another and integrates them into
the country’s unified economic space, President Ilham Aliyev said
in a message to the participants of the 6th Azerbaijan
International Restoration, Reconstruction and Development of
Garabagh Exhibition – “Rebuild Garabagh.”
"To date, nearly 1,500 kilometers of roads have been
constructed, and the 11.7-kilometer Murovdag tunnel stands as an
important example of engineering in complex mountainous terrain.
Fuzuli, Zangilan and Lachin international airports have been
commissioned, while railway construction continues. As an essential
part of the Zangezur corridor, the Horadiz–Aghband railway is of
strategic importance for expanding Azerbaijan’s international
transport and logistics links.
Energy and water supply infrastructure is also being developed
to serve new residential settlements and production facilities. In
the region, one new reservoir has been built and five have been
restored, while 13 substations and 38 hydroelectric power plants
with a total capacity of 307 megawatts have been commissioned.
Developing Garabagh and East Zangezur as a “green energy zone” is
one of the key priorities in building this infrastructure," the
message said.
Meanwhile, Caspian Construction Week, covering construction, the
reconstruction of Garabagh, engineering and utility systems, the
plastics and polymer industry, road infrastructure and public
transport, has opened in Baku.
Held at the Baku Expo Center from October 14 to 16, the event
