The destroyed Herher road with one-meter-wide pits has been a headache and a source of trouble for villagers and an obstacle in the way of the village’s development for decades and is a brilliant opportunity for candidates for president and MP to exploit the issue of its repair at every election and win the votes of residents of Herher.
The village of Herher, region of Vayots Dzor, is only 18km away from the town of Vayk, but no taxi driver who knows the vicinity will drive you to the village even for 10 thousand drams. If he agrees, that 10 thousand drams will cost him dearly; after driving the car to the village, the driver will have to pay threefold-fourfold more for fixing the effects of the Herher road on the car. Not to mention the danger of rolling down into the gorge and being
squashed by stones falling off cliffs. The destroyed, in some places, collapsed Herher road with one-meter-wide pits has been a headache and a trouble for villagers for decades and an obstacle in the way of the village’s development and a brilliant opportunity for candidates for president and MP to exploit the issue of its repair at every election. According to residents of Herher, as opposed to the regional administration of Vayots Dzor that doesn’t venture to mention specific dates, before which the road will have been fully repaired, due to the lack of money, Ashot Arsenyan, an MP elected from Vayots Dzor, raised the issue of the road again at the latest meeting with residents and promised to solve it.
