Türkiye’s newly launched north–south high-speed rail projects are further strengthening GIA Industrial City’s strategic position. Located in Niğde Ulukışla, GIA is rapidly becoming one of the most logistically advantageous investment zones in Türkiye, thanks to its connection with expanding high-speed railway lines.

On June 14, Türkiye’s Minister of Transport and Infrastructure, Abdulkadir Uraloğlu, announced the official launch of construction for the Kırıkkale (Delice) – Çorum segment of the Ankara–Kırıkkale–Çorum–Samsun High-Speed Rail Line. Once completed, the project will enable the seamless transport of 12 million passengers and 14 million tons of cargo annually along the north–south axis.

The new rail line will reduce travel time between Ankara and Samsun to 2.5 hours, and Ankara to Çorum to just 1 hour and 15 minutes. Meanwhile, construction is also underway on the southern continuation of this corridor along the Karaman–Ulukışla–Mersin–Adana axis.

GIA: At the Heart of the Black Sea–Mediterranean Rail Corridor

Situated in the Niğde Ulukışla region, GIA Industrial City is quickly evolving into a logistics hub with direct connections to Black Sea ports and Central Anatolia through these new high-speed rail networks. Once the Samsun–Mersin corridor is completed, GIA’s strategic access will become a critical gateway not just for Türkiye, but also for markets in the Middle East, the Caucasus, and Europe.

With direct links to ports, highways, and now high-speed rail, GIA offers investors fast distribution to the domestic market and a strong logistical edge in export operations.

Transport Investment = Investment Confidence

Minister Uraloğlu described the project as “not just a railway, but a spark of development.” For companies investing in GIA, this large-scale infrastructure effort directly translates into long-term value. Surrounded by modern transportation systems, GIA stands at the heart of state-driven regional development.

GIA: The New Direction of Investment

With its government-backed incentive system, integrated transportation infrastructure, and powerful production capacity, GIA Industrial City is no longer just an industrial zone—it is Türkiye’s emerging gateway to a future defined by logistics, speed, and global reach.
