Tashkent – Italferr, the engineering company of the Italian State Railways Group, will assist Uzbek Railways for the implementation of the electrification project along the Angren-Pap railway, in the heart of the most productive part of the Asian country. The contract, valued at approximately $6 million, was awarded through an international tender financed by the World Bank and will last for about 3 years. The project, in addition to electrification, provides for the supply and installation of technological control systems. This success confirms Italferr’s strategy to bet on foreign markets started some years ago. (9Colonne)
