S7 highway (Georgia)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Georgian S7 route (Georgian: საერთაშორისო მნიშვნელობის გზა ს7, Saertashoriso mnishvnelobis gza S7, road of international importance), also known as Marneuli–Sadakhlo (Armenian border), is a "road of international importance" within the Georgian road network and runs from Marneuli to the border with Armenia near Sadakhlo over a distance of 34 kilometres (21 mi), making it the shortest S-highway in Georgia.[1] After crossing the Georgian-Armenian border the highway continues as M6 to Vanadzor, Armenia's third largest city.

The S7 highway is entirely part of European route E001 and the Asian Highway AH81 and connects with the Georgian S6 highway in Marneuli. Furthermore, the road is entirely located in Marneuli Municipality (Kvemo Kartli region) and built as a two lane road. Plans have been developed and international funds have been raised to upgrade the southern part of the S7 to a 2x2 motorway, while a new motorway section will connect the S7 with a redesigned S4 highway near Didi Mughanlo.[2]
