Iran is collaborating with Switzerland for the construction of a dry port on the outskirts of Tehran.
A $25-million contract was signed in Tehran on Sunday between the Islamic Republic of Iran Railways and Swiss logistics holding Trans Invest Group, to start working on Aprin transport terminal, 20 kilometers to the southwest of Tehran, where Iran’s north-south and east-west rail transit routes meet.
“The construction of a warehouse and installation of customs equipment will be completed within two years,” IRIR CEO Mohsen Pourseyyed Aqaei was quoted as saying by the Ministry of Roads and Urban Development’s news service.
