is working hard on


Explanation:
...is working hard on [or building] railroad infrastructure.

A lot of the words in this sentence are unnecessary in English ("weed words") and should just be dropped.

Активно can often be dropped as well (it is overused, to the English-speaking ear), but may as well leave it here.
