This International Invitation for Tenders related to the contract for the Construction/Rehabilitation Works for Road Safety Improvement, East Georgia (Lot I), (Lot II) and (Lot III). The aim of the Georgia Transport Connectivity (GTC) - Georgia Road Safety Improvement Project is to improve road safety on the national roads network.

The main output of the Project is to eliminate separate selected blackspots located along the extended TEN-T network in Georgia and improve the road safety. The main expected benefit is a decrease of road accidents in both number and severity. The civil works on the selected road sections (blackspots) will include specific physical safety improvements, complemented by awareness raising activities.
