The Czech Republic is ready to invest in Alborz Province’s transportation sector, IRNA quoted chargé d’affaires of the Czech Embassy in Tehran, Petr Stepanek, as saying in a meeting with municipal managers of the province on Tuesday. He highlighted low investment risks in Alborz, announcing that a delegation from his country will visit the province in the near future. Also during the meeting, Mostafa Baqernejad, advisor to the governor of Alborz, said transportation, renewable energies, and water and sanitation projects are key sectors prioritized by the province for attracting investments. Alborz Province, located in northwest of Tehran, was detached from Tehran in 2010, due mostly to its population growth, 90% of which, according to official statistics, live in urban areas.
