The Government of Armenia today approved a plan to build transport infrastructure and an international logistics center near Zvartnots International Airport. The plan is one of the components of creating a free economic zone, which involves building a new motor highway and railway linking the airport with the capital and other areas of the country.
The planned railway will connect the airport’s passenger terminal with the Charbakh metro station in Yerevan, while freight cars will transport cargo to Karmir Blur station via an express train.
Construction of the logistics center is expected to take 3 years and cost 25 million euros (which will be financed by the state and the private sector).
