BAKU, Azerbaijan, September 20. The establishment of the International Association “Eurasian Transport Route” will increase the volume of freight transportation between countries in the global region of Eurasia, the first deputy head of roads of the State Unitary Enterprise "Tajikistan Railways" Sorbon Gulakhmadov said at a consultative meeting of heads of railroad administrations on the establishment of the International Association "Eurasian Transport Route," Trend reports.

“Experience shows that for effective operation of transportation, it is necessary to develop and improve infrastructure and build optimal transportation routes and communications. The Government of Tajikistan pays great attention to the development of the transport sector, especially the development of transport corridors, railway infrastructure, and turning the country into a transit zone. The Middle Corridor is one of the promising transport corridors,” he added.
