The thriving east-west trade that once spanned Central Eurasia along the famed Silk Road may soon be restored to its former glory thanks to growing transport and trade links being rolled out. Central Asian countries have been working closely together to construct transport corridors, promote energy security, and remove trade barriers. They have shed outdated trade policies and adopted new rules to increase commerce. Trade between East and West is booming again, the government has decided it needs to upgrade its infrastructure. A country of vast expanses, and huge distances, it is a major logistical challenge for those trying to do business here, it is the largest landlocked country in the world. But a new highway is under construction that will span the entire country and replace many of the bumpy back roads that make travel here such a chore. The road from Almaty, the largest city and former capital, flows through the mountain of Eastern Kazakhstan, a rural area which is believed to have large economic potential with huge oil, gas and mineral reserves. To make it more accessible for businesses, Kazakhstan plans to spend about $19 billion on transport infrastructure by 2014, especially on links from China to Europe that could help revive towns like Taraz..

Road Security
Level: Good
Roads in Kazakhstan are in poor repair in rural areas. Poor signage is common. Street lighting, especially on side streets, may be turned off at night. Drivers often ignore lane markings. Potholes are common, and are often dangerously deep. Pedestrians frequently dart out in front of cars. Visitors should drive defensively at all times as many local drivers do not follow traffic laws. Special caution should be taken if driving at night. Road rage can be a problem, especially in and around Almaty, and a non-confrontational response to such behavior is strongly recommended. Accidents involving severe injury and/or death are common. Traffic police have reportedly stopped cars to extort bribes on main city streets and at periodic checkpoints on major highways.
The road between Almaty and Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan, is especially
treacherous at night or during poor weather. U.S. citizens and
other travelers have been killed in traffic accidents on that road,
and travel at night or during poor weather should be avoided.
Travelers should be particularly careful when using public
transportation and taxis. Buses tend to be very crowded and can be
unsafe and unreliable. Due to the danger of theft or assault,
travelers should be selective regarding which taxi they contract
and always avoid entering a cab that already contains persons other
than the driver.
Kazakhstan has a zero-tolerance policy for driving under the
influence of alcohol. A driver may be detained by police and
convicted of drunk driving for driving a vehicle after consuming
one drink of alcohol, regardless of whether the driver is actually
intoxicated. ( Source : http://travel.state.gov )
Weighbridges and Axle Load Limits

2.4 Kazakhstan Railway Assessment
Kazakhstan Railway Assessment
Transportation by rail in Kazakhstan is very important.
Kazakhstan Railways provide 68% of all cargo and passenger traffic
to over 57% of the country. 15,079 km in common carrier service,
excluding industrial lines.
Economic and geographic features of Kazakhstan (its vast territory,
uneven spatial distribution of population clusters and of natural
resources) make the transport component of the economy one of the
most size able in the world and determine high dependence of the
economy on the transport networks.
Being sandwiched between Europe and Asia, Kazakhstan boasts of a
great transit potential, as there is no alternatives for Asian
states to link to Russia and Europe.
Relatively diverse landscape and availability of natural stone
reserves allow unrestricted development of railways and automobile
routes.
Automobile and railways routes account for a major share of the
total above-ground transport routes (about 88.4 & 14 thousand km
respectively). Total length of navigable waterways makes up 3.9
thousand km, and the total of air routes makes up 61 thousand km.
Density per every 1000 km 2 stands at 5,1 km for railways, at 32,4
km for automobile routes with hard surface, and at 1,5 km for
in-land navigable waterways.
At the current stage, there is a problem of poor condition of the
transport sector fixed assets, obsolete infrastructure and
technology.
The share of transportation costs in the final cost of the goods
makes up 8% and 11% for in-land railways and automobile traffic
respectively, while in industrialized countries these indicators
normally make up 4-4,5%. As a result, the transport burden on the
economy exceeds that on the major industrialized nations twice on
average. By cargo intensity index Kazakhstan’s economy is about
five times less efficient, as transport component of every 1 USD of
GDP makes no less than 9 ton-km, while in EU cargo intensity is
less than 1 ton-km/dollar of GDP.
As the Kazakhstani rail system was designed during the Soviet era
rail routes were designed ignoring intersoviet borders and to the
needs of Soviet planning. This has caused anamolies such as the
route from Ural'sk to Aktobe briefly now passing through Russian
territory. It also means routes might not now suit modern day
Kazakhstani needs.
International transport corridors cross the territory of Kazakhstan and are formed on the basis of transport infrastructure existing in the country:
Northern Corridor of Trans-Asian Railway Main (TARM): Western Europe – China, Korean Peninsula and Japan via Russian and Kazakhstan (section Dostyk – Aktogai - Sayak – Mointy – Astana – Petropavlovsk (Presnogorkovskaya)).
Southern Corridor of TARM: South-Eastern Europe – China and South-Eastern Asia via Turkey, Iran, Central Asian states and Kazakhstan (section Dostyk – Aktogai – Almaty – Shu – Arys – Saryagash).
TRACECA: Eastern Europe – Central Asia via the Black Sea, Caucasus and the Caspian Sea (section Dostyk – Almaty – Aktau).
North-South: Northern Europe – Gulf States via Russia and Iran, with Kazakhstan’s participation in the following sections: sea port Aktau – Ural regions of Russia and Aktau – Atyrau.

2.5 Kazakhstan Waterways Assessment

River shipping is performed in Irtysh, Ural – Caspian and Ili – Bakhash basins with total length 3983.5 km.. The construction of Shulba sluice in Eastern Kazakhstan was completed and resulted in reopening of navigation on Irtish river between China, Kazakhstan and Russian with up to 3 million tons cargo transportation capacity.

Kazakhstan Milling Assessment
Agriculture in Kazakhstan remains a small scale sector of Kazakhstan's economy. Agriculture's contribution to the GDPis under 10%, it was recorded as 6.7%, and as occupying only 20% of labor. More than 70% of its land is occupied in crops and animal husbandry. Compared to North America, a relatively small percentage of land is used for crops, with the percentage being higher in the north of the country, 70% of the agricultural land is permanent pastureland. Kazakhstan's largest crop is wheat, which it exports. It ranks as the sixth largest wheat producer in the world. Minor crops include barley, cotton, sugar beets, sunflowers, flax, and rice. In 2011 the country had achieved record grain harvests of 26.9 million tonnes, exceeding the previous record of 21mn tonnes recorded in 2009. For 2012, the Kazakh Agriculture Ministry cut the crop forecast to only 14 million tons because of dry weather.
