When the project, which forms an important part of the continuous railway corridor from Europe to China together with Marmaray and other projects, is completed, 6,5 million tons of freight will be transported annually. High-speed train lines that can carry passengers and freight are being built to reduce transportation costs and increase competitiveness. Among the high-speed train lines planned in this context; While the construction of 457 km continues, 562 km is at the tender stage and 12 thousand 276 km is at the project stage. We recognize the importance of Turkey's progress in the transport rail transport and its derivatives. With this responsibility, I would like to state that we are in an effort to implement new projects in order to develop railway transportation integrated with other transportation modes.
