Yerevan Municipality presents Surmalu metro station 

ArmInfo. The announcement of a tender for the feasibility study of the Surmalu metro station construction project has been delayed, since the project will include reconstruction work on the Christopher Bridge. This was reported by Yerevan Mayor's Advisor Anneta Babayan during a working meeting of the City Hall.

She noted that such a decision was made as a result of discussions  with representatives of the Metro, which revealed new circumstances  related to the technical condition of the Christopher Bridge and its  safety.  Consequently, the bridge was also included in the technical  specifications, given that the territory where the metro station will  be built will also affect its operation. Babayan assured that the  tender will be announced this week.

At the same time, the Mayor's Advisor reported that the investment  program will also be sent to the government for discussion this week.  If funding sources are identified, design work will begin.

And by the end of May, as she noted, a tender for the project outline  will be announced.

At the moment it is unclear where exactly the Surmalu metro station  will be located and how much the project will cost. It is assumed  that it will be located between two existing metro stations, Sasuntsi  David and Zoravar Andranik, providing access to two shopping centers,  Surmalu and Petak. This will help relieve traffic congestion in this  area.
