Mongolia and China to build 19.5km cross-border railway by 2028 www.constructionbriefing.com
Mongolia and China will jointly construct a new 19.5km long railway line connecting the two countries.
The Gashuunsukhait-Gantsmod Cross-Border Railway is an extension to the existing railway network that stops short of the border.
Construction of the new railway and container transfer facility is expected to start in April 2025 and take two and a half years to complete.
Construction will be overseen by state owned company Erdenes-Tavantolgoi JSC in Mongolia and by China Energy and its subsidiaries in China.
Once operational, this railway link will increase coal transport capacity by 30 million tons and enable the expansion of Mongolia’s Tavan Tolgoi Coal Mine. It is estimated that the railway link will also increase coal sales revenue by US$1.5 billion per year.
First proposed in 2009, the project had been subject to significant delays.
“The ratification demonstrates the unanimous support across Parliament for this project and the Government’s ambitious growth agenda,” said Mongolia Prime Minister L. Oyun-Erdne.
“This partnership is unlocking valuable export and investment opportunities, opening Mongolia’s natural resources to drive new investment into the country. We look forward to continuing our cooperation in these areas and expanding our capabilities as a critical mineral rich nation.”
