High-speed rail network is another driver of metallurgy
The representatives of the metallurgical companies have taken part in a round table discussion, dedicated to the establishment of a network of high-speed rail transport in Russia, which took place in the framework of the Russian Business Week RSPP. Steelmakers expressed interest in the topic of high-speed rail network as the producers of rails (Evraz and Mechel) and wheels (OMK and Evraz). Besides, Russian steel companies are suppliers of plate for bridge structures, hardware for track structures and other metal products for infrastructure construction, as, for example, MMK and Severstal. The project of high-speed rail link running between Moscow and Kazan, and then to Yekaterinburg, Rostov-on-Don and Adler is just a beginning of creating a new generation of transport, without which the 21st century is unthinkable.
