Rasht-Anzali Railroad to Be Completed by March 2022

The 41-kilometer railroad connecting Gilan Province’s capital, Rasht, to the port city of Anzali has made 63% and 13% progress in infrastructure and superstructure respectively, which is estimated to be completed in the current Iranian year (ending March 2022), according to a deputy minister of roads and urban development.
“So far, 8 trillion rials [$32 million] of investments have been made in the Rasht-Anzali railroad project, which needs an additional 3 trillion rials [$12.1 million] before it is completed,” Kheirollah Khademi, who also doubles as the CEO of the Construction and Development of Transportation Infrastructure Company, was quoted as saying by News.mrud.ir.
Rasht-Anzali railroad is the continuation of Qazvin-Rasht railroad and has a significant role in completing the International North-South Transportation Corridor.
