The history of transport infrastructure development in Central Asia from 1991 to 2022 reflects the complex interaction of geopolitical dynamics, economic challenges, and the region's desire for broader connectivity and integration. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan, which gained independence, faced significant communication isolation for decades due to centralized planning and infrastructure designed mainly for Soviet needs. In the post-independence period, these countries struggled with outdated infrastructure, lack of investment, and the need to redefine transport networks for the development of regional and international trade.
