Middle Corridor Live Map

 

The Caspian Policy Center has produced this interactive map, allowing viewers to zoom in, click on infrastructure points, and better understand this multi-modal corridor, including its real and potential routes, chokepoints, and issues relating to sanctions.

The Middle Corridor, also known as the Trans-Caspian International Transport Route, is a multimodal land and sea transport corridor, helping products move from as far as China to Europe through Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Azerbaijan, Türkiye, the Black Sea, and the Caspian Sea. The route consists of over 4,250 km (about 2640.83 mi) of rail lines and 500 km (about 310.69 mi) of seaway.  

With its total length 2,000km shorter than Russia’s Northern Corridor, the Middle Corridor offers a resolution to sanction-compliance issues, access to new markets. Since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, the corridor has received mass investment and seen a surge in traffic, providing new opportunities for business-to-business (B2B) and business-to-government (B2G) engagements in logistics, transportation, and infrastructure construction. 

The Caspian Policy Center has developed this live map allowing viewers to learn about the middle corridor network and the various key notes along its path.
