Krishan explains Aqaba railway removal
The article concerns the Aqaba Port Railway Project, which is the largest of its kind in Jordan, valued at approximately $2.3 billion. Its goal is to improve the transportation of phosphate and potash between the mines and the port. The removal of the old railway lines, which have not been used for years, has begun in order to reconstruct them according to modern specifications that require higher speeds and greater loads. This aligns with the Jordanian-Emirati partnership, which contributes between 65% and 70% of the project. The project includes the construction of a 360-kilometer railway network connecting the mines to Aqaba Port, aiming to transport around 16 million tons of mineral materials annually. This will enhance export capacities, support infrastructure development, and foster economic growth for the kingdom. It is considered a major step toward linking Jordan with neighboring countries and Mediterranean ports.
