Itum-Kali to Shatili Highway Construction
Sector: Road • Location: Itum-Kali/Shatili, Chechnya/Georgia, Russia/Georgia
Source: EADaily
The project involves the construction of a highway from Itum-Kali in Chechnya to Shatili in Georgia, passing through the upper reaches of the Argun Gorge to the Russian-Georgian border. The construction began in 1997 but was halted in 1999 due to opposition from Georgia. As of 2025, the project remains stalled because Georgia does not want the road to pass through its territory.
