Major rail projects build up steam - The National Newspaper


Major rail projects in Abu Dhabi and the wider GCC region are beginning to take shape after a lull of more than six months in project announcements.

This year is shaping up as an important one for Abu Dhabi’s plans to build a tram and metro network, with the Government soon to announce the winners of feasibility studies, industry executives say.

It will also be crucial for a 1,500km federal freight and passenger rail project overseen by Union Railway, which should refashion the country’s transport networks and eliminate the need for the thousands of lorries that currently carry goods and clog the country’s roads.
