On June 15th, CHN Energy's Baoshen Railway Gants Mod Railway Company and Mongolia's Tavantolgoi Railway LLC simultaneously commenced drilling operations at the border, marking the start of the first pile for Pier 24 of the China-Mongolia Cross-border Railway Bridge.

The Chinese section of this cross-border railway bridge spans 760 meters and includes 348 bored piles, 34 pile caps and 34 piers.

The project connects China's Gants Mod Port with Mongolia's Gashuun Sukhait Port. Upon completion, it will link the Ganquan Railway with Mongolia's southbound railway network. This represents the second cross-border railway between China and Mongolia since the 1950s, playing a significant role in enhancing regional connectivity and economic and trade cooperation.

Currently, both Chinese and Mongolian sides are working in close cooperation to advance construction and ensure the project is completed on schedule. The railway is expected to facilitate the expansion of energy and resource trade between the two countries and spur the development of cross-border logistics, industrial parks and related sectors.
