Maritime Authority: Rail Project Strengthens Jordan as Regional Logistics Center
The statement from the Jordan Maritime Authority emphasized the importance of the railway project between Aqaba and Maan, which has had its groundbreaking ceremony. This represents a strategic step to enhance Jordan’s position as a regional logistics hub. The project aims to build an integrated transportation system that combines railways with ports and land transport, thereby improving the efficiency of Jordanian ports, reducing ship waiting times, increasing berth turnaround, and boosting the competitiveness of markets such as phosphates and potash. Additionally, the project will help ease traffic on roads and support the efficient connection of production areas to ports, with an expected transportation of approximately 13 million tons of phosphate and 2.6 million tons of potash annually. Experts say that linking Aqaba’s ports with regional trade through a national railway network will strengthen Jordan’s position on the international trade map and support its vision to develop a more efficient and flexible logistics system. The statement confirms that this project is a first step toward connecting ports with neighboring Arab countries and launching a strong logistics future that will improve supply chains and expand Jordan’s export capacities.
