North-West Transport Corridor
North-West Transport Corridor
The establishment of the North-West Transport Corridor was made possible by the commissioning of the Baku-Tbilisi-Kars railway in 2017. This corridor primarily facilitates the transportation of goods between Turkey and Russia, including coal, grain, and other products. Moreover, the corridor creates conditions for the transportation of coal and grain cargoes produced by Russia to Turkey via the Baku-Tbilisi-Kars railway.
