Deputy Minister of Roads and Urban Development Visits Khosravi Border
H.E. Reza Akbari, Deputy Minister of Roads and Urban Development and Chairman of the Road Maintenance and Transportation Organization, accompanied by Habibi, the Governor of Kermanshah, and Hosseini, Member of Parliament representing Qasr-e Shirin, Sarpol-e Zahab, and Gilan-e Gharb, conducted an official visit to the Khosravi Border to review the latest progress of operational works, existing infrastructure and development programs underway at this key border crossing.
During the visit, officials evaluated the completion of the remaining border canopy, implementation of the border’s master development plan, relocation of the weighbridge, reorganization of cabotage procedures, and improvements to fleet control and transit processes. A detailed report on the advancement of equipment upgrades, service enhancement initiatives, and the technical and operational needs of the border was also reviewed on site.
The Khosravi Border, historically part of the ancient Silk Road route, serves as a direct corridor from Khosravi to Monzariya (al Munthiriya) towards Iraq—a strategic position that reinforces its role as a vital commercial and regional transit gateway.
The President of the Islamic Republic of Iran Customs Administration, the Director General of Transit and International Transport Department at the RMTO, the Acting Director General of Kermanshah Road Maintenance and Transportation Organization and the Chairman’s Senior Advisor on Charitable Affairs and Deprived Regions were also present during the visit.
