Regarding the signing of the TAR Agreement, what we feel is that we have technical and financial constraints to upgrade the existing railway line in conformity with the guiding principles for technical character eristic of TAR network. Actually moving dimensions, axle-load, signaling and operating conditions are very poor and too far from the specification of TAR standards. Though the whole network is necessary to be reconstructed, it is not within our reach at the moment due to our economical constraints. That is the main reason why we cannot sign the Intergovernmental Agreement for TAR. Myanma Railways needs sufficient time and large amount of financial supports to upgrade the whole railway network. DRY PORTS OF INTERNATIONAL IMPORTANT IN MYANMAR Myanmar proposed eight potential locations for dry ports in Myanmar at the meeting of “Ad hoc Intergovernmental Meeting on an Intergovernmental Agreement on Dry Port” held in Bangkok during 20 to 22 June 2012 and signed “the Intergovernmental Agreement on Dry Ports” at the Forum of Asian Ministers of Transport held in Bangkok, Thailand on November 7, 2013. The potential dry port locations in Myanmar are in Yangon, Mandalay, Tamu, Muse, Mawlamyine, Bago, Monywa and Pyay.TheywouldbealongtheAsian Highway and Trans-Asia Railways Line in Myanmar’s transport network. The dry ports in Mandalay and Yangon are to be primarily implemented. There will be the international tender process for towards construction and the operation of dry port at Ywathagyi (Yangon) and Myitnge (Mandalay) in August 2014. 21 Myanma Railways plans to develop a new potential dry port in the area of Ywarthargyi in Yangon Division.

  • 9 December 2020 MITSUBISHI CORPORATION SELECTS CAF TO
    9 December 2020 MITSUBISHI CORPORATION SELECTS CAF TO SUPPLY TRAINS FOR THE MYANMA RAILWAYS PROJECT Mitsubishi Corporation has subcontracted CAF for design and supply 246 modern Diesel- Electric Multiple Units (DEMU) in the framework of the contract the Ministry of Transport and Communications of the Republic of the Union of Myanmar awarded to Mitsubishi Corporation. The contract comprises of the supply of eleven 6-car units for the Yangon circular railway upgrading project, and the supply of a further thirty 6-car units for the Yangon-Mandalay II railway upgrading project. The volume of the operation with CAF exceeds €500 million and is being funded through an international loan, in yen, pursuant to an agreement between the governments of Japan and Myanmar. This agreement not only covers the supply of the trains, but also the comprehensive upgrading of the infrastructure on both lines, including signalling system modernisation, work on tracks and station improvements. Eleven of the new units will be supplied for the first line, called the circular line, which runs 46 km through the centre of Yangon, Myanmar's largest commercial city. As a result of this project, the plan is to reduce by 60 minutes from the current 170 minutes travel time required to travel along this line. The other 30 units will also run on the 620 km long Yangon-Mandalay line, which connects Yangon city to the country's capital, Naypyidaw, and the second largest commercial city, Mandalay. The journey time will also be significantly reduced, going from approximately 15 hours to around 8 hours once the project is completed.
