On April 15th, Tianjin Metro Group, a subsidiary of Tianjin Rail Transit Group, successfully signed a consulting service contract for the first phase of the new transportation system light rail project with Astana, the capital of Kazakhstan. This important achievement was achieved after more than a month of active communication and high-frequency consultations during the visit of the Kazakhstan Rail Transit Research Team to the group in March 2024. This is also the first time that Tianjin Rail Transit Group has gone abroad and contributed to international transportation construction, marking a solid step forward on its internationalization path.

The first phase of Astana's new transportation system light rail project is Kazakhstan's first urban light rail, with a total length of 21.39 kilometers, 18 elevated stations, and a maximum operating speed of 80 kilometers per hour. It mainly passes through landmark buildings and important areas such as the International Airport, Nazarbayev University, World Expo Park, Abu Dhabi Stadium, Presidential Palace, and National Museum. Keywords: overseas engineering, international engineering construction, foreign engineering construction news.

The project is fully constructed using Chinese technical standards, and Tianjin Rail Transit Group plays a key role in it, mainly responsible for providing equipment system technical consulting services to ensure the smooth progress of project construction.
