More than 80 percent of railway track to the newly-built bridge linking Russia with Crimea is complete, according to the project’s website. The railroad will link the bridge with the transport system of Crimea and mainland Russia.
Construction and installation works are being carried out along the entire length of the route. It is constructed using a continuous welded railroad track way, which will make the trip almost noiseless. Workers have already laid the roadbed, the embankment and completed the track’s superstructure.

The construction also includes a two-track road which will connect the Crimean bridge with the railway tracks of Kerch, Feodosia and Simferopol in the Crimea. In addition to the railway, the Taman train station is being constructed. Trains from Taman will run throughout Crimea, Krasnodar and other Russian regions. It will make it easier for local residents to travel across the country.
“Road approaches from Crimea and Kuban will be put into operation together with the railway section of the Crimean Bridge in 2019. Its capacity will be 47 pairs of passenger and freight trains per day in both directions,” said Leonid Ryzhenkin, deputy general director for infrastructure projects at construction firm Stroygazmontazh.
The preliminary schedule of train traffic for 2020 envisages that 29 pairs of trains per day will initially operate between the Crimean peninsula and mainland Russia. They will include 15 passenger, ten cargo and four shuttle trains.

In May, Russian President Vladimir Putin officially opened a 19-kilometer Crimean Bridge which became the longest in Europe. Before the bridge was built, the only connections between Crimea and the other parts of Russia were through ferry services and air traffic.
The bridge begins on the Taman Peninsula, passes over a 5km dam and Tuzla Island, crosses the Kerch Strait and reaches the Crimean coast. Currently, the bridge is open only for automobiles, but regular cargo traffic will open by the end of this year. The bridge will remain toll-free for everyone, according to the president.

One of the world’s longest gas pipelines, the Power of Siberia, which aims to deliver Russian natural gas to China, is nearly 85 percent complete.
According to the Russian energy giant Gazprom, the section from the Chayandinskoye field (Yakutia) to the border with China is already built. The second tunnel of the underwater crossing of the pipeline through the Amur River is also complete, it said.
The Power of Siberia pipeline which is also called the “Eastern Route” is one of the major projects between Russia and China. Analysts say it could help Russia become one of China's main providers of natural gas as demand in the country increases.

The 3,000km pipeline will be longer than the distance between Moscow and London. Deliveries should begin in late 2019. The deal on the eastern route took more than a decade to negotiate. Last July, Gazprom and the China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC) inked an agreement to start gas deliveries via the route.
In May 2014, the two companies signed a $400-billion 30-year framework to deliver 38 billion cubic meters of Russian gas to China annually. In 2017, Gazprom invested 158.8 billion rubles ($2.6 billion) in the project. This year it plans to invest another 218 billion rubles ($3.47 billion).

Moscow and Beijing plan to build another pipeline – Power of Siberia 2 or the Western Route – that will deliver another 30 billion cubic meters of natural gas from Russia to China. According to the head of Gazprom, Aleksey Miller, China’s growing gas consumption, which was more than 200 billion cubic meters in 2016, will soon reach 300 billion cubic meters.
