By 2028, the investor will invest more than 200 million rubles in the terminal, which is planned to redistribute the region's freight flows to the railway.

The Omsk Region plans to build a new transport and logistics complex for international container shipments. The "Karbyshevo Container Terminal" project, costing over 200 million rubles, is expected to be completed by 2028. This was announced by regional Governor Vitaly Khotsenko on his Telegram channel, noting that the project has received support from the regional investment committee.

According to Governor Mina Akhverdiyeva, the governor's press secretary, the investor plans to build a terminal with a full range of container cargo handling services and, at its own expense, provide rail access. Completion is scheduled for 2028.

According to Governor Vitaly Khotsenko, the new infrastructure will allow for the redistribution of freight traffic to rail transport and increase the Omsk Region's export potential. He emphasized that the terminal will be integrated into international container routes, including those to China.

The rationale for choosing the terminal site, as evident from the region's description, is based on its transit location. The Omsk region is a major industrial and agricultural center, and the city is located at the intersection of the Trans-Siberian Railway, shipping routes along the Irtysh River, and federal highways linking central Russia, the Far East, and Kazakhstan. According to the information provided, the new Omsk-Fyodorovka Airport, currently under construction, will be an additional factor.

Regional authorities are linking the project to specific economic and social benefits. Vitaly Khotsenko stated that the project will create new jobs. According to the governor's official position, the project aims to strengthen the region's export potential. For regional companies exporting petrochemical and engineering products, grain, and food products, the terminal will provide modern infrastructure for cargo containerization. According to authorities, integration into container routes to China will open direct access to key Asian markets. Therefore, as stated, the implementation of the Karbyshevo project is viewed as a comprehensive step toward developing logistics and foreign economic activity in the region.

As a reminder, the capacity of the Freight Village Vorsino multimodal transport and logistics center in the Kaluga Region will double. DP World, one of the world's largest logistics operators, is interested in the Kaluga project due to the hub's strategic location for expediting cargo delivery to the Middle East.
