Etihad Rail, RITES Partner for Expansion

Etihad Rail, the UAE’s national railway network developer, has entered into a strategic partnership with India’s RITES Ltd., a leading transport consultancy and engineering company, to bolster the expansion of the UAE rail network. The partnership aims to support the ongoing development of the Etihad Rail network, which plays a crucial role in enhancing connectivity and logistics across the UAE and the wider Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region.

This collaboration between Etihad Rail and RITES will focus on leveraging India’s expertise in railway engineering and infrastructure development to ensure the timely and efficient expansion of the UAE’s rail system. With a rapidly growing demand for freight and passenger transport in the Middle East, the expanded rail network is expected to enhance logistical efficiency, improve trade routes, and reduce transportation costs across the region.

RITES will provide consultancy services, engineering solutions, and project management expertise to support Etihad Rail’s ambitious expansion plans. The UAE rail network is envisioned to connect major ports, industrial areas, and urban centers, providing seamless integration with international trade routes. The expanded network will also contribute to the UAE’s environmental goals by offering a more sustainable transport option, reducing carbon emissions and traffic congestion on roadways.

This partnership underscores the growing cooperation between India and the UAE in infrastructure and technology sectors, reflecting broader geopolitical and economic ties between the two nations. The collaboration between RITES and Etihad Rail marks a significant step towards achieving a world-class rail infrastructure in the UAE, fostering economic growth and regional connectivity while showcasing the expertise of Indian firms in global infrastructure projects.
