UAE National Railway Network

The UAE has made significant progress in constructing its national railway network, which is expected to have a significant impact on the global supply chain. The national railway network has been operational since January 2016, with its main line spanning from Ghuweifat on the Saudi Arabian border to Fujairah, and stage two of the project began in early 2020.
Etihad Rail, the company behind the national railway network, worked on this project with 11 contractors, 25 consultants, and 28,000 specialists. Furthermore, it has received 40,000 approvals from 180 government agencies, indicating a broad commitment to the project's success. 
The project includes the construction of 593 bridges and crossings of all types, along with nine tunnels that have a combined length of 6.5km. The UAE's national railway network is designed to offer a fast, efficient, and reliable transportation option for goods across the country, linking the major cities and ports in the UAE and allowing for easier access to markets across the region.
The completion of the UAE's national railway network is a significant achievement that demonstrates the country's commitment to investing in its infrastructure and modernizing its transportation sector. It is expected to have far-reaching effects on the economy, enabling businesses to move goods more quickly and efficiently, reducing transportation costs, and improving overall productivity.
Moreover, the national railway network will strengthen the UAE's position as a key logistics hub in the region, connecting it with other transportation networks, such as ports and airports. This will make the country more competitive and attractive for international trade and investment, boosting economic growth and job creation.
To summarize, the completion of the UAE's national railway network is a critical milestone that will benefit the country's economy and strengthen its position as a major logistics hub in the region. Businesses in the UAE will gain a competitive advantage in the global market by being able to move goods more quickly and efficiently. This ambitious project demonstrates the UAE's future vision and commitment to investing in infrastructure to support long-term economic growth.
