Transport Plan * Russian - Government preliminarily OKs 2010-2015 one
Moscow,Russia -Prime/Tass -April 24, 2008: -- The Russian government has preliminarily approved the federal special-purpose program to develop the country's transportation network in 2010-2015... The current program has a shortage of funds for the construction of roads and railroads, Transportation Minister Igor Levitin said. The shortage of funds for the construction of railroads will be covered either by revenue from higher tariffs for rail cargo transportation or by additional funds from the federal budget, Levitin said. The shortage of funds for the construction of roads will be covered by charging trucks with a weight of over 12 tonnes for using federal roads and by private investment, Levitin said... The program envisages the construction and reconstruction of 7,300 kilometers of federal roads and 116 runways... The implementation of the program will also help increase cargo transit across Russia to 42.7 million tonnes in 2015 from 28 million tonnes in 2007, Russian Prime Minister Viktor Zubkov said... (23.3448 rubles - U.S. $1)
