Jordan King and Abu Dhabi Crown Prince attend Aqaba railway opening
The King of Jordan and the Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi inaugurated the Aqaba-Shidiya-Maan railway project in the city of Aqaba, with an investment estimated at approximately $2.5 billion. The project aims to connect the port of Aqaba with mining and production sites in the Maan region to create an integrated transportation system for freight, especially phosphates and potash, facilitating access to regional and global markets and reducing transportation costs by about $40 million annually. It is also expected to generate around 5,000 job opportunities, enhance the competitiveness of the mining sector, and strengthen economic and strategic cooperation between Jordan and the UAE. The project includes the construction of railway tracks, bridges, and tunnels, and is considered the largest of its kind in Jordan within the railway sector.
