TRANSLOADING TERMINAL AT SHIVEEKHUREN BORDER CHECKPOINT TO BE PUT INTO OPERATION IN SEPTEMBER
The border checkpoint officially resumed operations from May 25, 2022 after having halted its operations since October 2021 due to the pandemic situation. 220 containers of coal have been exported on the first day of resumption of operations.
Around 10 million tons of coal had accumulated at the Shiveekhuren-Sekhee border checkpoint since its operations were halted. It is being planned to export the coal in a considerably short amount of time, reported the official in charge of Shiveekhuren border checkpoint at the border administration.
At the Shiveekhuren border checkpoint, construction works are being carried out for a container transportation terminal in 17 hectares of area. Its progress is currently running at 87 percent.
Once the terminal is fully put into operation in September this year, it will become possible to export 17 million tons of coal per year from the terminal alone.
