The Roads Department has announced that traffic has been temporarily restricted for vehicles travelling from Sarpi to Poti on the Senaki–Poti (Bypass)–Sarpi highway at kilometre 85 due to a landslide.
The restriction applies to vehicles with a permitted maximum weight exceeding 3,500 kg. A landslide has damaged part of the road’s reinforced shoulder, creating a risk of further damage to the carriageway.
During the restriction, heavy vehicles will be redirected via the alternative route: Grigoleti–Shekvetili–Kobuleti–Chakvi–Makhinjauri (bypass tunnel), rejoining the Senaki–Poti–Sarpi highway at the Kobuleti interchange.
Passenger cars will continue to travel without restrictions. The Roads Department is monitoring the situation and planning appropriate measures.
