A transnational project to build an Asian highway linking 32 countries is gaining momentum as an agreement on it takes effect today.
The intergovernmental agreement will create the network to link 141,000 kilometers of roads with 55 routes throughout the Eurasian Continent, making direct travel from Tokyo to Istanbul available.
At a session of the United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asian and Pacific (UNESCAP) held in Shanghai on April 2004, 27 countries among the total of 32 participating nations informally signed off on the construction of the highway on condition of each government¡¯s ratification.
