A major state-owned Chinese construction company is prepared to help expand the public rail and road networks in the Siberian city of Novosibirsk, the mayor’s office announced Thursday.
Novosibirsk Mayor Maxim Kudryavtsev said in a statement that his administration met with representatives from the China Railway Tunnel Group, a subsidiary of the government-owned China Railway Group.
The sides discussed “the design and extension of the Novosibirsk metro line, the construction of a new runway at Tolmachevo Airport, as well as the construction of the Southern Transit [highway project].”
Kudryavtsev said Novosibirsk would be willing to work with CRTG “if they offer a competitive price and quality.” If a construction deal is approved, the Novosibirsk city administration said it would be CRTG’s first time working on a project in Russia.
