The opening of the Mary - Turkmenabat section took place in Turkmenistan. It is part of the high-speed Ashgabat – Turkmenabat highway, which will become part of the East–West and North–South transit corridors. The 600-kilometer road connects the capital with the eastern region of the country. The six-lane highway meets international standards of quality and safety and is monitored by a smart system - real-time video surveillance collects and transmits data to the road monitoring service. According to experts, the highway will significantly reduce travel time for both passengers and freight carriers. Moreover, the opening of the road coincided with the start of the UN Decade of Sustainable Transport. For Turkmenistan, which initiated this document, the launch of such infrastructure enables it to integrate into the global logistics system.
