The railroad between the People's Republic of China and Kazakhstan gets completed at Dostyk, adding a sizeable link to the concept of the Eurasian Land Bridge.
Dostyk, Kazakhstan
This Eurasian Land Bridge currently comprises the Trans-Siberian Railway, which runs through Russia and is sometimes called the Northern East-West Corridor, and the New Eurasian Land Bridge or Second Eurasian Continental Bridge, running through China and Kazakhstan. As of November 2007, about 1% of the $600 billion in goods shipped from Asia to Europe each year were delivered by inland transport routes.
