Title:
Abstract:	The new transport corridor TRACECA (Transport Corridor Europe-Caucasus-Asia) connects Azerbaijan with Black sea ports and allows an increase in the freight volume and passenger traffic in the future. Within this corridor the Georgian Government decided to build a bypass around Tbilisi as a solution for the trend of increasing traffic. The bypass railway project of Tbilisi includes four single-tube tunnels in a suburban area of Tbilisi with small overburden which pass through poor and complex rock mass conditions. The project is still ongoing and will be finished in 2013. Der neue Verkehrskorridor Transport Corridor Europe-Caucasus-Asia (TRACECA) verbindet Aserbaidschan mit einigen Hafenstädten am Schwarzen Meer und ermöglicht so eine künftige Erhöhung des Frachtvolumens und des Personenverkehrs. Die georgische Regierung hat beschlossen, innerhalb dieses Korridors eine Umfahrung für Tiflis zu bauen, um das stetig steigende Verkehrsaufkommen zu bewältigen. Das Eisenbahnumfahrungsprojekt für Tiflis umfasst vier Doppelspurtunnel mit geringer Überlagerung. Die Tunnel befinden sich in den Außenbezirken von Tiflis und verlaufen durch ungünstige und komplexe Gebirgsverhältnisse. Das Projekt wird 2013 fertiggestellt.
