Correspondents of “Chronicles of Turkmenistan” report that the highway connecting the airport of Turkmenbashi to the national resort zone “Avaza” located on the Caspian Sea of Turkmenistan is under repair in an emergency mode.
The road surface is in quite a good condition, especially compared to the condition of the roads in the city of Turkmenbashi itself, let alone the locations of Esenguly, Etreke, Gyzylgai, Khazare (formerly, Cheleken). Nevertheless, the public utilities staff patch up the cracks and level off the places where the ground had sunk.
Every summer the president and his family spend his summer holidays in Avaza. It appears that the repair works on the road are related to his forthcoming holidays.
It should be highlighted that Gurbanguly Berdymukhammedov spends his holidays very actively.For instance, last year the head of the state with his grandson Kerimguly took a bicycle ride, did sports, composed poems and recorded a song.
