New railway project launched in Azerbaijan

The Eastern Partnership Investment in Connectivity (EPIC) Programme of the European Investment Bank and the European Union has launched a new project in Azerbaijan. Under the project to be implemented on the initiative of the Ministry of Digital Development and Transport, it is planned to apply the best practices of the European Union in the field of railways, as well as to establish cooperation on adapting railway lines and crossings to the most modern standards.

In addition, the project is expected to boost the country’s transit potential and ensure a wider use of the Middle Corridor.

It should be noted that the project, covering the railway sector, is the first project to be implemented in our country under the Eastern Partnership Investment in Connectivity Programme.
