The project for the expansion of the light signaling system was carried out by the French company "ADPI", a branch of Airports de Paris, which owns Paris airports. Delivery and installation of modern system components was carried out by the Italian company OCEM.

The second phase of the project, which will expand the system to 900 meters, will begin shortly.
The new lighting system will further enhance the level of safety of flights at the Tbilisi airport and facilitate the landing of aircraft in conditions of heavy fog, bad weather conditions and poor visibility.
