Ninety-seven percent work on Integrated Transit Trade Management System at Torkham and Chaman has been completed to enhance the country's transit trade capacity.
With the completion of this project under the National Logistics Corporation, Pakistan will join the ranks of developed countries having modern, state-of-the-art border terminals.
These border terminals with international standard facilities will significantly increase the volume of trade with Afghanistan, Central Asian states and other countries in the region.
These terminals are equipped with modern facilities to expedite the delivery of trade goods. After completion, they will be able to handle 2400 trucks per day which is five times more than the current capacity.
Parking capacity for 400 trucks and 100 light vehicles will be available in the import and export yards of these terminals.
The terminals will also have a modern administration center, a business center for banks, weighing machines, explosives and drug detectors, scanners and biometric data collection systems.
The transformation of these border terminals will strengthen regional connectivity, making Pakistan a hub of regional trade.
The Federal Board of Revenue is supervising this entire project being executed with the financial support of Asian Development Bank.
