New Central Asian corridor open for TIR


The Kyrgyzstan-Tajikistan-Afghanistan-Iran (KTAI) corridor is now open for TIR transports, according to the international road union (IRU). The corridor offers the shortest possible route between Iran and Kyrgyzstan, with TIR saving up to five days on the usual transit time.

 

Starting at Bandar Abbas port, Iran, the TIR pilot transport proceeded to cross into Afghanistan from where the TIR trucks continued their journey across Afghanistan and made their way swiftly to their final destination, arriving safely in Dushanbe, Tajikistan.

 

Given the route’s starting point at Bandar Abbas port, traders and transport operators can also opt to take advantage of TIR's intermodal and digital options along the corridor, IRU said. (ben)
