The construction work of the second phase of the fourth section of the Khaf-Herat railway project, connecting Afghanistan with Iran, has been inaugurated.
The segment is 47-kilometer long, stretching from Rabat Parian to Herat International Airport and the Industrial Town.
It will be constructed at the cost of $53 million and within approximately two years.
Its contract had been signed between Afghanistan Railway Authority and Gamma Group in late March.
Upon its completion, this segment will integrate the Khaf-Herat regional connectivity project with Iran’s significant seaports and facilitate access to Europe via the Turkish railway network.
