Description

The PRC-Kyrgyz Republic-Tajikistan road corridor is a key transport artery for the two landlocked countries, the Kyrgyz Republic and Tajikistan, to trade with the PRC. It is also an integral part of the regional road network in CAREC. The project road has become a bottleneck for regional trade and transport due to its poor condition and lack of maintenance.
