Thanks for the correction! <br /><br />I was here in January, too, and the roads are still in the same condition! The owner of the guesthouse where I am staying said that it's been this way for six months so far -- but when it is all finished, the water supply will be much better and the roads will all be new. Good things are coming!Steffi Park Egerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00551287334493637254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9013907449881395185.post-54244359397663449742011-04-22T07:35:49.558-07:002011-04-22T07:35:49.558-07:00I was there last January and roads were in the sam...I was there last January and roads were in the same condition. Roads looked really bad even by Georgian standards, so I suspected the local government was doing something. They were laying new pipelines to replace old (try 50-60 years old) Soviet pipelines which would improve water pressure and supply. Anyways, the government decided instead of laying pipelines sector by sector, just to dig up the entire city, finish the work, and then worry about the surface. I guess it's still not finished. <br /><br />Oh, and I would not really care but I got to defend my home town: Kutaisi is the second largest city. Batumi would be third largest :)Giorginoreply@blogger.com
