Story Idea

One week ago The City Hall began construction of bridges in several streets of Tbilisi. At first the aim of building enormous constructions was not very clear for city dwellers. In fact this bridges are built for the inhabitants to pass the streets more carefully, without fear and accidents, caused mostly by traffic. One can simply use the special ladder for crossing the bridges. They are intended for the places where are cross-roads and no underground passages for people. Furthermore the bridges remain advanteges for drivers too: If the inhabitants use them in the future, there will be no more light-signals for drivers to stop and make way for passers-by, it mean that the traffic jams will decrease noticebly. Constructions will end by the end of November 2009. There are similar crossing bridges in different countries of the around the world, which makes progress in everyday life.

Local library is closed

A local library building was closed near the park of Roses on Agmashenebeli Ave. In the beginning local dwellers hoped that the building would open after restoration. Five days ago when one of the customers who wanted to take a book, found out that the stuff was putting books in boxes for transporation, they said that it will close in the near future. Someone has bought the building and is going to open a fast food restaurant.

There are many bistros and fast food places on this territory, according to that, closing an educational source is not desirable, it can be avoidable.

Unfortunately it is like illnes in Georgia, that everyone wants to open own food place, because it's the most profitable business to earn money.
