Transport sector evolution over two years
Over the past two years, the transportation and logistics sector in Jordan has undertaken numerous projects to modernize and improve public transportation systems and infrastructure. The goal has been to enhance mobility, establish connectivity between regions, and boost trade activities. These efforts include operating 11 public transit routes connecting different governorates using 340 smart buses, serving over 2.7 million passengers from June 2025 to August 2026, and establishing support systems such as charging stations and advanced intelligent transportation systems. Furthermore, roads and airports have been upgraded, including the rehabilitation of Amman Airport and the maintenance of major roads, as well as developing the road network and updating asset management systems. In terms of air transport, Amman International Airport was modernized at a cost of 15 million dinars, resulting in a passenger movement increase to around 161,000 travelers since the beginning of 2026. Additionally, the Aqaba Railway Project was launched, with an expected cost of approximately $2.3 billion, aimed at connecting phosphate and potash production sites to the port. This initiative is designed to reduce transportation costs and facilitate export operations. These efforts focus on improving citizen mobility, supporting trade and export activities, and constitute some of the most significant developments in Jordan’s transport and infrastructure sector.
