The Ministry of Transport and the Branch of the Innovative Road Solutions (IRS) in Tajikistan have reportedly provided special machines for cleaning the road of rocks. The work on cleaning the road of rocks is under way.
Meanwhile, the Hydrometeorology Agency (Hydromet) reports that heavy snowfall is expected in the majority of mountain regions of the country until February 16 and there is risk of further snow-slides and rockfalls.
