British steel company British Steel has announced it will supply £35 million worth of railway products to Turkey's latest high-speed rail development. The company has become a key supplier to Turkey's national rail modernization programme, having already supplied £30 million of rail products to the country's high-speed corridors.
This latest contract follows a similar award last year for the Mersin-Adana-Osmaniye-Gaziantep high-speed railway in southern Turkey.
UK-Vietnam Partnership promotes digital rail infrastructure
In parallel with the contract with Turkey, the UK announced a separate cooperation agreement with Vietnam aimed at digital transformation of the country's railways. The partnership aims to provide technical support to Vietnam's Ministry of Construction in the deployment of high-tech, sustainable railway solutions.
