Siemens is interested in the development project of the Moscow-Kazan high-speed railway, Siemens President for Russia and Central Asia Dietrich Muller said, TASS reports.
“We are interested in the Moscow-Kazan high-speed railway project. We are particularly interested in trains’ delivery on the basis of local production together with Sinara. The company would be interested in co-developing. We are at the very beginning of the project and it is possible that we will participate in the project as a contractor,” Muller said.
Russian Railways First Vice-President Alexander Misharin said that the construction of the high-speed rail Moscow-Kazan would begin in 2016, TASS reported earlier.
The first stage of the design process is set to end in March of next year, and all the design work should be completed in September of next year.
