At present, a plan is being carried out for 2,000km of roads being built during 2020.
Financing for this new programme will be delivered through a combination of state funding, loans from international sources and by PPPs.
New highway stretches will connect Darkhan with Altanbulag and Nalaikh with Bayan, featuring two lanes in either directions.

Constructill be carried out on the 67km route connecting Tosontsengel and Uliastai.
