Tbilisi, Georgia: A ceremony of welcoming the Georgian footballers was held at the Freedom Square in Tbilisi on Tuesday, July 2, 2024, because of which transport movement was restricted. Traffic was limited in this area due to the expected large turnout and the need for security.
From 12:00 to 17:00 o’clock, movement to Freedom Square will be partially restricted. Specifically, the vehicles going from Rustaveli Avenue to Freedom Square will not be able to enter the circle on the square to continue the movement towards Baratashvili Street. Drivers will be able to turn around Pushkin Square and move again to Rustaveli Avenue, avoiding the restricted area.
From July 2, 17:00, to July 3, 00:00, vehicle movement on Freedom Square will be prohibited entirely. Movement will be restricted from Kote Abkhaz and Pushkin Streets and from Rustaveli Avenue to 9 April Street.
During the restriction hours, public transport will be rerouted to connect to the right bank of Mtkvari via Mikheil Javakhishvili Street, providing a clear alternative route for commuters.
When driving in the opposite direction, public transport will take the same route—from Baratashvili Street, it will connect to the right bank of Mtkvari and then go through Javakhishvili and Merab Kostava Streets.
Transport on the Tbilisi-Kojri highway will stop at N11 on Amagleba Street, and passengers will be served indirectly from the same address.
Fans will meet national team players at Freedom Square. The event will start at 22:00.
Freedom SquareÂ
Freedom Square, or Liberty Square, is located in the center of Tbilisi, Georgia, at the eastern end of Rustaveli Avenue. “Freedom Square “was first coined in 1918 when Georgia declared its independence from Tsarist Russia but was renamed by the Soviets in 1940 in honor of Lavrentiy Beria, a Georgian-Soviet politician and Bolshevik activist.
