Project description

Following the 2007 feasibility study for reconstruction of the Western Europe – Western China international corridor, detailed design was prepared for upgrading a 54-km section of the Almaty–Taraz–Shymkent–Tashkent road in southern Kazakhstan from a two-lane category II road to a four-lane category IB road with a median, followed by designer supervision during construction. The design and supervision contract, worth USD 1.05 million, was financed by the Ministry of Transport and Communications.
