Most automobiles in Tbilisi are out of order which, along with the air pollution, contributes to the increase of the noise. Passenger cars are mainly of the old Soviet model, or individually imported obsolete cars from Europe which need considerable repairs. During the last three years a new problem emerged - so called "marshroutkas", mini-bus taxis, the influx of these, majority of them being out of order, cause serious problems of pollution and noise.

The arrangement of payable parking-lots in the central streets of Tbilisi contributed to bringing some order to the traffic movement and partially decreased the creation of traffic jams which due to "emotional drivers" are always accompanied with intensive car signals. But most of the parking-lots are mainly arranged directly along the main streets which lessens the space for the movement of the traffic and slows down the speed (from this point of view only Rustaveli Avenue is an exception). Jams are very frequent at the cross-roads which is caused by the traffic light signs either being out of order or not functioning due to the absence of the electricity. Nevertheless, Tbilisi is not distinguished by big and very long-term jams.

The noise arising from air transport is local and spreads only in the territory adjoining the airport. Less intensive is the noise of railroad since the major section of the railroad in the city is rather far away from the settled areas, at the same time the railroad movement is not very intensive. Neither is very significant the noise arising from plants and factories which are located rather far away from the settled areas.
