Construction of 26 Armenian roads taken under special governmental control
RA Government introduced road construction-related changes to 2009 state budget. AMD 5 billion instead of AMD 6.8 billion scheduled will be allocated to 26 Armenian roads' construction.

RA Prime Minister instructed RA Transport and Communications Minister to "institute strict control over the usage of funds allocated to roads' construction".

RA Premier Tigran Sargsyan expressed his discontent on overstated construction expenditures assessment provided by Transportation Ministry experts. ''Strict economy regime should be implemented in crisis circumstances,'' Tigran Sargsyan noted.
