The corridor will stretch 130 km and its width in Imishli will be 250-500 m, in Neftchala – 12 km.
Mammadov said they were planning to create land reserves in the regions where the corridor would pass. “The question is about the identification of the public, municipal and private lands. The corridor will pass through 75 000 ha fields. There are 65 000 ha public, about 7 000 ha municipal and 3 000 ha ofprivate lands there. The local authorities are identifying the landowners and their list will be submitted to the relevant agencies”.
