Oman expects bids for new rail network

Oman railway_indexOman Railway is starting the prequalification process for the second phases of building a 2,135km rail network and expects bids from teams experienced in the design and construction of major railways, tunnels and bridges. The project involves creation of a new freight and passenger network with future scope for high-speed rail. The route will connect Oman’s centres of population and growth-drivers and will also be part of a regional Gulf rail network.
The Oman National railway network has an estimated total length of 2,135km, divided into several segments linking Oman’s borders with the UAE to Muscat and also to the southern parts of the country – Port of Al Duqm, the Port of Salalah and the Yemen border. The railway will be double track and non-electrified.
