Chairperson of BVL Chapter Russia speaks about the "Creation of a new port and logistics complex in the Astrakhan region - a new stage in the development of the INSTC".
The International North-South Transport Corridor is a multimodal route with a total length of 7,200 km, from St. Petersburg to the Indian port of Mumbai. It was created with a purpose of attracting freight traffic from India, Iran and other countries of the Persian Gulf to the Russian territory via the Caspian Sea and further to the Northern and Western Europe. According to the Russian Federation’s Transport Strategy until 2035, the INSTC is one of the priority areas of the national transportation policy.
600 delegates from 499 companies in 39 countries took part in the TRANSTEC Forum 2021. It is organised to promote the creation of favourable conditions for the scientific, technological and socio-economic development of the regions interested in improving and realising export and transit potential.
The event has been held since 1994 and is traditionally attended by representatives from government agencies, professional associations, research centres, transport and commercial enterprises from the Russian Federation and foreign countries.
