In the present study we discusses the concept of the project for laying and organizing the Volga-Pechora Way as one of the options for effectively linking Eurasian integration with the Silk Road Economic Belt. Its essence lies in the organization of through ship traffic along the route: Caspian-Volga-Kama-Pechora-Arctic Ocean (Northern Sea Route), which separately requires the laying (construction) of the Kama-Pechora shipping canal, allowing passage of river-class vessels Sea, with a displacement of at least 5 thousand tons. As a result of this project, it will be possible to connect the water and land parts of the North-South international transport corridor (ITC) with the Northern Sea Route. The unification of the Northern Sea Route with the ITC "North-South" will allow access to the Northern Sea Route for the EAEU countries-Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and will form a new Eurasian transit route.
