 The NELTI Project is another stage in the IRU's activities for development of Euro-Asian transport communications following a series of successful demonstration road transport caravans undertaken in 2002-2007 (Lisbon-Vladivostok, Beijing-Brussels, and Black Sea Ring Caravan). The project's main goal is setting the stage for launching regular commercial freight haulage by road transport from China's border to end consumers in Western and Central Europe. In the course of the first stage of the project, one of the objectives, along with solution of commercial and political tasks, was also building up and adjusting mechanisms of logistic support and stimulating haulage, in the longer run, of Chinese freights by road transport routes along the historic Great Silk Road.
