Kuwait Seeks Developing Different Transport Sectors

The development of the land transport system seeks to contribute to evolving North of Kuwait as an economic and urban area, linking it to roads connected with neighboring countries in order to limit traffic congestion and help the private sector participate in construction and development of projects in the State. The project aims to build a 37-km sea bridge through the Kuwait Bay. It includes the establishment of two islands containing buildings for traffic services and bridge maintenance as well as a fuel station and other services.

The scheme seeks to establish a railway network with a length of more than 570 kms, develop the land transport sector and services, activate land connections with neighboring countries, as well as secure and facilitate the movement of passengers and goods.

It aims to contribute to reducing pollution resulting from the use of vehicles and trucks, and cutting dependence on roads transport for both passengers and cargo, as part of treating traffic congestion and increasing investment rates. It also seeks to encourage the private sector to participate in construction and development projects in the country and to benefit from practical experience, which has a positive influence on local economy through transferring technology and knowledge, which enhance efficiency of employees and develop services as well as create more jobs.
