STRATEGIC ASPECTS OF DEVELOPMENT OF TRANSIT AND TRANSPORTATION CAPACITY OF KAZAKHSTAN
Abstract
Located in the center of the Eurasian continent, being an important link of a transcontinental bridge between Asia and Europe, and having a sufficient transit capacity Kazakhstan continues to take efforts to implement it while organizing freight delivery from China to Russia and Europe. In terms of transit potential of the country, the transit volume is not high enough today. This is due to the fact that available transport and logistics infrastructure cannot to full extent serve and meet the country’s logistical needs for the total transit volume. Hence, there is an urgency of solving the tasks aimed at development of transport and logistics infrastructure, in particular at formation of a rational interaction system between all modes of transport, at development of systems of transport and logistics centers, representing key components of quality enhancement of transport complex of the republic as a whole. The article considers existing approaches as well as strategic projects with regard to solution of above problems.
