ASTANA, Kazakhstan, June 20. KTZ Express (a
subsidiary of Kazakhstan Railways, KTZ) and the Romanian CFR Marfa
have considered the development of the Trans-Caspian International
Transport Route (TITR, or Middle Corridor), Trend

Representatives of the companies noted the need to expand the
presence of KTZ Express on the route from the port of Constanta to
Budapest - a further distribution hub for cargo throughout
Europe.
Representatives of CFR Marfa looked at the ongoing work to
develop the transport and logistics industry in Kazakhstan.
As part of consolidating the agreements reached, KTZ Express and
CFR Marfa signed a Memorandum of Cooperation for the further
implementation of joint projects.
The Middle Corridor is a transportation and trade route that
connects Asia and Europe, passing through several countries in the
region. It is an alternative route to the traditional Northern
Corridor and Southern Corridor.
The route starts in China and crosses Central Asian countries
such as Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, and Turkmenistan. It then passes
through the Caspian Sea, Azerbaijan, Georgia, and Türkiye before
reaching Europe.
The Middle Corridor offers a land route that connects the
eastern parts of Asia, including China, with Europe, bypassing the
longer maritime routes.
