Kilometer-Long Queues Near Upper Lars Georgian Checkpoint: What We Know

For a considerable time, kilometer-long queues have formed on the road from the Upper Lars checkpoint towards the Georgian border checkpoint, in the neutral zone. This is reported by Shamshyan.com.

According to reports from the site’s readers, the reason behind this congestion is the inadequate operation of the Georgian checkpoint, which is either working very slowly or is simply not operational.

Passenger and cargo vehicles are forced to spend several days waiting to enter Georgia or must cross the route on foot. Even when crossing on foot, individuals are faced with hours of waiting at the checkpoint to reach their turn.

Reports indicate that due to the queues, a traffic jam exceeding 3 kilometers in length has formed.
