Developing Tajikistan's Transport Sector (English)

Asian Development Bank | February 2011
Abstract
As a small landlocked country, Tajikistan depends on external trade for its development, and its export-driven businesses in agriculture and industry require transport that is fast, reliable, and cheap. Tajikistan must increase its connectivity to world markets. The country partnership strategy for 2010-2014 aims to develop transport infrastructure, build human capacity, and achieve good governance. Tajikistan is active in the Central Asia Regional Economic Cooperation (CAREC) Program, which aims to develop seamless connectivity in the region. Tajikistan has also developed a national transport sector master plan with Asian Development Bank (ADB) assistance. The plan is supportive of CAREC's Transport and Trade Facilitation Strategy (2008-2018) and Tajikistan's national development program. ADB will provide financial and technical assistance to support its implementation.
