The existing transport-transit potential of Uzbekistan, favorable conditions for using the opportunities of international transit and broad participation in international systems of transport communications open the prospects for creation of international logistic centre on the base of Navoi airport as transcontinental transport dispatch network, connecting East and South-East Asia with Europe, the Middle East and CIS countries.

The first steps in this direction have been done in August 2008, when a big South-Korean “Korean Air” air company started regular cargo flights on the route Seoul – Milano – Seoul with 6 intermediate landings in a week in Navoi city. At the same time regular flights of National Air company of Uzbekistan and Moskoviya Russian air company on the route Navoi – Tashkent – Moscow are being continued.

Beside air communication, Navoi has high transit potential of land transportation.



The developed transport communication network, integrated into the international transport system and which is the key challenge in communication system of Central Asia and CIS countries run via the city. International transport corridors lie in immediate proximity to Navoi airport: railway “Afghanistan – Central Asia – Europe” and automobile road “E-40” of international significance which links Beijing with Paris.

Currently construction of railway passing-track, connecting the city with the following railway trunks are being carried out:



- In the north-west direction – Uchkuduk - Nukus - Volgograd with the next exit via Russia to the European countries;


- In the east direction – Samarqand - Tashkent - Dustik with the next exit to China and South-East Asia;

- In the south direction – Bukhara - Turkmenistan - Bandar-Abbas with the further exit to the Middle East countries and the Persian Gulf.        

In addition, with launching of Guzar - Baysun - Kumkurgan railroad in 2007, new railroad connection to Navoi city airport will provide direct access in the southern direction to Afghanistan, Pakistan and India.    

In order to organize a complete reference system of distribution of goods in the region of Central Asia by land transport, as well as redistribution of the flow of goods by aircrafts in directions north - south and west - east, warehouses for storage and handling of goods, container floor will be constructed, the railway and road access ways will be summed up, the loading and unloading equipment will be purchased on the territory of Navoi airport.



To date, the construction of storage terminal of future transport and logistics center has been started.
