A new international freight route linking China, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, and Turkmenistan was inaugurated on October 15 in Kashgar, located in China's Xinjiang region. Seven trucks departed toward the Kyrgyz border, initiating a multimodal logistics chain.
The cargo will be transported by road to Kyrgyzstan, then transferred to railways bound for Uzbekistan, eventually arriving in Turkmenistan. A portion of the shipment will cross the Caspian Sea to Azerbaijan. Deliveries are expected to reach Uzbekistan by October 21 and Turkmenistan by October 24.
This route is part of a trial phase within the southern segment of the Trans-Caspian Transport Corridor connecting China and Europe via Central Asia. The journey begins in the Chinese cities of Xi’an and Chengdu.
One of the paths will enable direct transportation between Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, and Turkmenistan using Chinese logistics services, with Ashgabat as the final destination. The initial cargo includes electronics and mechanical equipment.
The initiative aims to diversify regional logistics networks, enhance connectivity between Central Asia and China, and strengthen the Middle Corridor as an alternative trade route to Europe.
