The return of international truck movement through northern Syria strengthens Syria's position as a land corridor connecting Turkey and Europe with the Gulf markets and the Arab world. Meanwhile, trade exchange between Turkey and Syria is projected to increase to $3.75 billion in 2025, a 45% rise compared to the previous year, and is expected to reach $10 billion with improvements in infrastructure, streamlined customs procedures, and enhanced logistics services. As crossings expand and truck traffic increases, challenges remain in improving crossing efficiency, simplifying procedures, and upgrading roads to ensure the continuity of transport. Plans are also underway to expand the Bab al-Hawa border crossing. Syria is seen as a strategic hub for reclaiming its role as a key station along transportation routes between Europe and the Gulf. However, this requires investments, regional understandings, upgrading customs systems, and rebuilding infrastructure to ensure stable transit operations and increase attractiveness to trading companies.
