High-speed railways are now a central part of the technological development of Russia’s transport infrastructure. A high-speed rail network is being developed with the use of advanced engineering and digital solutions, from next-generation high-speed rolling stock and specialized infrastructure to modern traffic management systems for their operation. High-speed rail projects also benefit scientific research, lead to training for engineering and management personnel, and engage the nation’s best universities and design centers. By creating our own technology and components, and by adopting modern solutions for the construction and management of high-speed infrastructure, we raise the possibility of international cooperation and open the door for Russian technologies and engineering expertise to access high-speed rail transport markets abroad. What technological solutions are powering Russia’s high-speed rail projects? What goes into developing the science and human resources needed for the design, construction, and operation of a high-speed railway? How can the development of a high-speed rail network benefit regional economies and the country’s transportation system as a whole? What forms of international technological cooperation and exchange of experience are most needed to successfully build and operate high-speed infrastructure?
