2 Transport Infrastructure R A I L W A Y Length of Railroad: 840 km Operating railroad: 342 Km (Yeraskh Yerevan - Ayrum) Intermodal Container Terminals: Yerevan, Gyumri Transiting opportunities and border crossings with Georgia (Ayrum / Sadakhlo) - 1 railroad with Turkey - 1 railroad (Akhuryan / Dogukapi [Kars - Gyumri] ) with Azerbaijan - 2 railroads (+2) (Yeraskh / Sadarak, Ijevan / Kazakh)
3 International transport corridors and projects TRACECA corridor, initiated in 1993 Intergovernmental Commission Permanent Secretariat
4 International transport corridors and projects TRACECA RAILWAYS PASSING THROUGH THE TERRITORY OF ARMENIA TRACECA ROADS PASSING THROUGH THE TERRITORY OF ARMENIA
5 International transport corridors and projects High Level Group on the Extension of the Major Trans-European axes to the neighboring countries and regions, established in the framework of EC (South East corridor), initiated in 2005
6 International transport corridors and projects - North South corridor, initiated in 2000, 8 member states - Project Euro-Asian Transport linkages, Projects TEM, TER, Armenia joined in 2005
7 Transport infrastructure in South Caucasus Problems, obstacles No.1 : Blockade of Armenian border from East and West No. 2 : Non-operation of Abkhazian railway and road
8 Transport infrastructure in South Caucasus Non - operating segments (x) - European Union Turkey X Armenia South Caucasus, Russia, Central Asia
9 Transport infrastructure in South Caucasus Non operating sections (x) Armenia Georgia X Abkhazian Railway X Russia
10 Transport infrastructure in South Caucasus Non operating sections (x) Armenia Georgia X Abkhazia/South Osetia / Kazbeki - Upper Lars - X Russia The road, which connects Armenia with Russia via transiting Georgia, is not operating either, because the Upper Lars border- crossing is closed. Thus, the only routine for transporting goods to Russia from Armenia is remaining the combined transport: Armenia Georgian Port (Poti/Batumi) Russia or Ukraine
11 Transport Strategy The vision for 2019 is to foster an environmentally responsible sector providing mobility for all and facilitation national, regional and local development The goals are: - Facilitate international trade, economic development, regional balance and job creation - Develop, manage and efficiently utilize assets and resources - Improve services and modal integration - Minimize negative externalities Strategic objectives are: 1. Upgrade international and interstate road corridors, in phases. 2. Rehabilitate and develop infrastructure to and economically appropriate standard 3. Institute sustainable maintenance, adequately resourced and effectively managed 4. Manage demand and balance modal supply to reduce congestion 5. Enhance governance and regulation of service provision and operation 6. Improve institutional structure and redefine management responsibilities 7. Develop a medium/long term planning and financial management capability ability 8. Improve the application of logistics and IT 9. Improve safety and enhance environmental protection 10. Mobilize international support for the objectives Republic of Armenia
12 Transport Strategy International Transport Strategy Amongst the other things - North south corridors are vital - Exploiting transit potential must await border opening - Road budget is increasing but more is needed - A new construction and upgrading programme should be developed for north south corridors between Georgia and Iran (Asian Highways AH81/82/83) The outstanding issues on these corridors are: - Yerevan can be bypassed to the west or the east - Priority route Yerevan Georgian border should be identified (M1 via Gyumri or M2 via Sevan) - secure alternative to the Goris Kapan section Republic of Armenia
13 Priorities in the field of Transport Project Road - North South Corridor Republic of Armenia (i) Yerevan Sevan Dilijan (M-4), rehabilitation / widening 118km, 4-lane carriageway, grade separation, $131 million; (ii) Yerevan Gyumri (M1), rehabilitation/widening 125km, 4-lane carriageway, grade separation, $150 million (iii) Yerevan Yeraskhavan (M-2), rehabilitation 70km, 4-lane carriageway, grade separation, $ 56 million. Daily traffic volumes are up to vehicles, but geometry and surface pavement condition require improvement. Railroad - New railroad with Iran (approximately $1.5 billion) - Rehabilitation of previously existing railroad connecting Armenia with Azerbaijan - Existing railroad Gyumri Kars - Railroad Tavush region - Construction of new railroad Dilijan - Vanadzor
14 Republic of Armenia Why are these projects important? t? 1. This Coincides with priorities of HLG, South Eastern Corridors and TRACECA Long-Term Strategy for developing diversified transit corridors and promote the transit flows in the region. 2.. The proposed route ensures efficient, safe and sustainable road network for connecting Black Sea, Armenia and Iran, which can later be extended to Persian Gulf, thus promoting the overall regional transport operation. Later, it can be further connected to the East West Highway of Georgia that leads to Poti and Batumi at the Black Sea. This route provides Armenia with the shortest access to the sea ports linked to Europe (70% of Armenian trade are made through this route). 3. Later on, the road can be extended horizontally, too, thus linking ng with the countries form East and West.
15 North South Transport Corridor Republic of Armenia In the territory of Armenia: Meghri Kapan - Yerevan Gyumri Bavra Border of Georgia to be upgraded: Meghri Kapan - Yerevan Gyumri Bavra to be renewed: Bavra Border of Georgia In the territory of Georgia: Border of Armenia Akhalkalaki - Akhaltskha Batumi (280 km) to be upgraded: Akhaltskha Batumi to be renewed: Border of Armenia Akhalkalaki Akhaltskha
16 The further objectives of North South corridor New accesses towards Black Sea motorways Construction of Yerevan bypass This will facilitate the movement of lorries through bypassing of Yerevan, thus supporting to the free movement Extending Yerevan Ashtarak motorway up to Gyumri or Georgian border (173 km) This depends on the availability of necessary funds In South, construction of Tatev road as an alternate road to the existing one This will ensure higher security and timesaving, as the relief of the existing road is very mountainous Republic of Armenia Jointly usage to bridges and tunnels for roads and railways This will be useful for saving funds for construction, however in future problems might arise in terms of maintenance and management of these facilities
17 Alternative 2 Republic of Armenia GAGARIN KAMO MARTUNI JERMUK KAPAN - MEGHRY MERAND (IRAN) RAILROAD S S BASIC PARAMETERS Construction Length : km Road Category : III one line Steering leaning : 28 % Length maximum leaning : 30 % Bridges and over-bridges : 54 Tunnels : 7/23.95 each/km Stations : 9 Substations : 30 Average speed of movement : 40 km/h Average altitude above sea : 1760 m Approximate construction cost : billion USD
18 Alternative 2 GAGARIN KAMO MARTUNI JERMUK KAPAN - MEGHRY MERAND (IRAN) Republic of Armenia Feasibility studies up to EUR Duration 4-66 months ADVANTAGES OF ALTERNATIVE 2 - Greater economic significance for promoting the trade of Iran with w Armenia s other regions. - Passes only through the territory of Armenia. - The lowest altitude above the sea level and the lowest steering leaning. - Expedient and efficient number of artificial constructions. - Effective construction cost in view of the anticipated economic return.
19 Rehabilitation of the previously existing railroads Republic of Armenia Rehabilitation of Kars Gyumri Nakhijevan Meghri Baku railroad
20 Rehabilitation of the previously existing railroads Republic of Armenia THE REGIONAL SIGNIFICANCE OF Rehabilitation of Kars Gyumri Nakhijevan Meghri Baku railroad
21 Construction of New Railroad Line in Tavush region Republic of Armenia Dilijan Ijevan / Kazakh border of AZE needs to be rehabilitated 48.3 km (landslides) Constructed in 1986 Not operating since 1993 Vanadzor Dilijan (Fioletovo) 47km should be newly constructed, which will shorten the way in case of opening the border with Turkey
