| Rail Infrastructure Middle East Rail Infrastructure Middle East 2010, taking place on 17-20 January at the Shangri La Hotel in Dubai, will provide an essential stage for municipalities, contractors and consultants. Over the past few years the world has looked on in amazement as the unprecedented amount of investment in rail projects continues to grow at astonishing rates in the Middle East. It is approximated that the Gulf States will spend more than US$100bn on rail projects in the coming years. These projects include the Dubai Metro system, Abu Dhabi's Surface Transport Master Plan, Saudi's Haramain high-speed rail link (HHR), the Saudi Landbridge, Bahrain's six lane rail line and Egypt's rail upgrade programme. With almost every country in the Middle East announcing plans for infrastructure investment, rail experts from across the world are fleeing to the region to ensure they are involved in these ground-breaking projects. write your comments about the article :: © 2009 Exhibition News :: home page |
