BAKU, Azerbaijan, September 20. Head of the
Board of Directors of Turkish Railways' TCDD Tasimacilik Company
Ufuk Yalcin believes that the international association“Eurasian
Transport Route” established on Azerbaijan's initiative will expand
the geography of cargo transportation, Trend reports.
Addressing a consultative meeting in Baku, Yalcin noted that
multimodal transportation between China and Europe is growing and
transit countries should promptly respond to these trends.
“Türkiye, Azerbaijan, and Georgia launched the Baku-Tbilisi-Kars
railroad in 2020, with its capacity increasing from 1 million to 5
million tons per year from 2024. This is an important route within
the Eurasian transport corridor,” Yalcin said.
According to him, this infrastructure will allow seamless
transportation of goods between Europe and Asia.
“At the expense of new countries, the initiative to develop the
Eurasian route will operate efficiently and commercially
attractive,” the representative of Turkish Railways added.
