Avinyan: public transport priority is the solution to traffic jams

Yerevan Mayor Tigran Avinyan told the National Assembly that traffic jams are the city's most fundamental problem. According to him, an analysis of 100 intersections showed that in 85% of cases a jam begins when a car passes on the last green light and stops in the intersection. Avinyan named priority for public transport, dedicated lanes and restrictions for cars as the solution.
