Tbilisi
City Hall is implementing a huge project, within which, by the end of 2012 all
the sections of the city will be covered by free wireless internet.
The
project is aimed at freedom of communication, education and access to
information, both for locals and tourists.
After
full implementation of the project, it will be able to use fast and comfortable
service in the streets, squares and higher education institutes, cars, buses
and subway. For using free internet access it will be only needed to turn on
your computer, telephone or any other device, find a network named “Tbilisi
Loves You” and enter the network without any restrictions.
Currently
it is possible to use free wireless internet access on renewed David
Agmashenebeli Avenue, in Abanotubani, Freedom Square, Gldani and Varketili.
Tbilisi will be entirely equipped with WiFi system by the end of 2012.
The
mentioned innovation will be important for all those people who have business,
or actively uses internet for educational of entertainment purposes. Carrying
out such a project with the State patronage is unprecedented in the world. Even
in such cities as Paris, Vienna, Amsterdam, Rome, Prague, Istanbul, Jerusalem
and so on, free internet – access is only available on the territories of
commercial organizations. The first stage of implementation of the project has
already started and it will be expanded till the end of the year.
