AN OVERVIEW OF TRANSPORT LOGISTICS IN KAZAKHSTAN: FOCUS ON THE CASE OF ASTANA
Main Article Content
Abstract
Kazakhstan’s strategic location as a landlocked nation between Europe and Asia makes it a key node in regional transport corridors. Astana, the capital city, exemplifies both the challenges and opportunities of urban logistics transformation in the face of rapid urbanization. This article offers a comprehensive analysis of transport logistics in Astana, applying spatial modeling, graph theory, and logistics metrics to assess infrastructure accessibility and flow efficiency. The study provides insight into infrastructure planning, policy reform, and technological integration necessary to transform Astana into a modern logistics hub. Charts and figures support the analysis, emphasizing performance indicators, traffic bottlenecks, and optimization strategies.
