SUBWAY TO BE LIGHTED BY END OF THIS WEEK

Social

The newly constructed subway located on the Alek Manukyan-Nalbandyan intersection is still not lighted and as a result, students continue to cross the jam-packed street during night hours.

“The subway is rather long and there are no lights at all. We are afraid of passing through the subway,” told “A1+” YSU students Tatevik and Arpine whose classes end at 6 p.m. “It’s a very nice subway, but we are unable to pass though due to lack of lighting and cross the jam-packed street,” says Nadezhda, who studies at the Yerevan State University of Economy. Some students prefer the subway rather than the dangerous street. “In any case, it is better for me to cross the dark subway than risk my life,” says YSU student Artak.

Although not all students use the subway, it still helps students to “express themselves”, especially those students who have expressed love for one another in different languages on the walls of the subway.

Director of the office for implementation of construction projects in Yerevan Robert Harutyunyan told “A1+” that lighting in the subway has been temporarily shut down. According to him, the reason for that is the road construction going on near the subway. However, Harutyunyan added that there will be lighting on the Alek Manukyan-Nalbandyan intersection by the end of this week and the road construction tying the streets of Alek Manukyan and Charents will be over by the end of November.
