Kyrgyzstan plans to build and expand its internal network of highways through the construction of an alternative North-South highway and the reconstruction of the Bishkek-Osh, TyupKegen, Bishkek-Naryn-Torugart, Kochkor-Aral, and Osh-Batken-lsfana-Khujand highways. The construction of the international Balykchy-Karakol road and the Tyop-Kegen highway will continue. The strategic goal in the railway industry is the creation of a unified railway network connecting currently detached northern and southern sections of the national railways. The country has tentative plans to continue negotiations on a project to build a section of the transnational China-Kyrgyzstan-Uzbekistan railway.
