NELTI Routes

The ancient Silk Road was never a single caravan route, but covered hundreds of miles in width extending for over six thousand miles. In a similar way at the initial stage of the project 3 – 5 non-connected truck routes embracing three main directions – Northern, Central and Southern - will be launched.

	IRU NELTI Northern Route The northern route’s approximate length is 6,500 km (from Uzbekistan via Kazakhstan, Russia, Belarus, to the EU). Categories of freight transported include textiles, agricultural products, industrial equipment, food and pharmaceuticals.
	IRU NELTI Central Route The route’s approximate length is 5,100 km (from Central China via Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Azerbaijan, Georgia to the EU). Freight transported notably includes automotive components and cotton
	IRU NELTI Southern Route The route’s approximate length is 4,000 km (from Kyrgyzstan via Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Iran to Turkey). Freight transported includes seasonal export goods such as capers and walnuts, as well as leather, raw materials, dried fruit, consumer goods, spare parts for cars and plastics for window frames.
