In Tianjin, a training program for 20 Kazakh dispatchers is underway as part of the Astana light rail transit (LRT) project, the first of its kind in Kazakhstan. The three-month program includes classroom sessions, hands-on training, and emergency drills.

The 21.39-kilometer LRT line features 18 stations and will operate with the highest automation level (GoA4), expected to reduce travel time significantly. Chinese companies manage the entire project, from design to operation. Following the training, professionals will be sent to Kazakhstan for system testing and commissioning.
