The North-South transport corridor, which runs through the territory of Armenia along the Meghri-Kapan-Goris-Yerevan-Ashtarak-Gyumri-Bavra route, adjoins the Georgian road from the south to the ports of Poti and Batumi (on the Black Sea) and further to Russia, CIS and EU countries. The integrated project is expected to improve the Europe-Caucasus-Asia road link on the West Asia-East Europe section.
