The Branch of Innovative Road Solutions (IRS) LTD in Tajikistan, which operates the toll on the Dushanbe-Chanak highway, has begun repairing a section of the highway in Varzob district.
Major repairs are planned to be made to eleven kilometers of the highway in Varzob district.
This year, major repairs will be made to more than 50 kilometer of the highway and scheduled repairs will be made to more than 100 kilometers of the highway, according to the press center of the IRS LTD Branch in Tajikistan.
Besides, full replacement of the roadway is expected to be carried out soon.
The Branch of Innovative Road Solutions LTD in Tajikistan is an internationally held and managed company.
Innovative Road Solutions LTD was registered in British Virgin Islands in 2009.
Recall, IRS LTD was permitted to operate the toll on the Dushanbe-Chanak highway. A 354-kilometer toll road from Dushanbe to Chanak links Tajikistan’s capital with Uzbekistan through the northern province of Sughd.
The highway was upgraded by Chinese companies and paid for with a $280 million loan from China. The Tajik government decided to permit IRS to operate the toll on the highway in order to repay the loan to China. A toll has been collected for using the highway since April 1, 2010.
To-date, six toll-collection points (plaza) have operated on the Dushanbe-Chanak highway: Varzob; Hushyori; Shahriston, Istaravshan, Dehmoy; and Chorukh.
