土耳其交通和基础设施部本月早些时候公布了其交通和物流总体规划，要求在未来二十年内投资近 2000 亿美元。根据规划，2053铁路在客运中的份额将从0.96%提高到6.2%。这意味着从目前的每年 1,950 万客公里增加到每年 2.7 亿客公里。此外，交通部希望在 2053 年通过铁路运输超过五分之一的总货运量。目前，铁路货运的份额为 5.1%。安卡拉和伊兹密尔之间的线路正在建设，伊斯坦布尔郊区哈拉克和土耳其和保加利亚之间的卡皮库勒边境口岸之间交通同样在施工中。土耳其铁路公司 TCDD 的 Mersin-Adana-Gaziantep 项目也在开展。作为中欧班列中线的必经之地，土耳其加强铁路建设有利于提高班列运输效率，为中线开拓提供了积极的保障。
Turkey aims to strengthen the rail infrastructure and promote the freight volume
The Turkish Ministry of Transport and Infrastructure unveiled its transport and logistics master plan earlier this month, which calls for almost 200 billion dollars in investment over the coming two decades.With its vision for 2053, the ministry aims to increase the share of the railways in passenger transport from 0,96 percent to 6,2 percent. This translates to an increase from 19,5 million passenger kilometers per year at present to 270 million per year. Additionally, the ministry wants to move more than one fifth of of its total freight volume to rail in 2053. Currently, rail cargo only account for 5.1% of total market share.Among the lines under constructions are connections between Ankara and Izmir, as well as the one between the Istanbul suburb and Kapıkule (border gate between Turkey and Bulgaria). Turkey’s railway company TCDD also has the Mersin-Adana-Gaziantep project on the way.As an important hub for the middle line of China-Europe freight trains, Turkey's railway construction is conducive to improving the transport efficiency of freight trains and providing a positive guarantee for the middle corridor. “义乌-宁波舟山港”海铁班列与中欧回程班列首次实现 “整列中转”
