His Excellency Eng. Hassan Mohamed Juma Al Mansouri, Undersecretary for Infrastructure and Transport Affairs, said: \u201cThere has been a key focus from the UAE\u2019s wise leadership on the land transport sector, particularly the rail industry. Hosting Middle East Rail 2022 consolidates the UAE\u2019s excellence in the transport infrastructure and logistics industries, in order to achieve sustainable development. As a leading event in the railway sector, Middle East Rail 2022 will play a significant role in creating new opportunities for developing the industry. The event will bring together government officials, experts, and entrepreneurs, as well as the private sector, enhancing means of cooperation, exchanging knowledge and expertise, and showcasing the latest technologies and innovations in this vital field, which accelerates sustainable development and supports national economies, social cohesion, and commercial agreements.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe UAE government has launched major projects to support the transportation sector, particularly the rail industry, as part of its Projects of the 50.And, in order to continue its streak of ambitious achievements for the past 50 years, the Cabinet has recently issued Law No. 5 of 2022 on the executive regulations of Federal Law No. 8 of 2020 for regulating railways, which reflects our wise leadership\u2019s vision and interest in the land transport sector,\u201d His Excellency added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Omar Al Sebeyi, Executive Director of the Commercial Sector at Etihad Rail, said: \u201cWe are delighted to be hosting the upcoming edition of Middle East Rail, which comes as part of our commitment to support the development of the transportation and logistics industry in the UAE and the region. Middle East Rail will contribute to showcasing the latest technologies, fostering partnerships, stimulating investments, and exchanging knowledge and expertise, which are key for driving the growth industry in the UAE and the region.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAt Etihad Rail, we ensure integrating cutting-edge technologies and following the best practices in the development of the UAE National Rail Network, to support the country\u2019s economic growth. We look forward to convening with industry leaders and experts at Middle East Rail to shape the future of the rail industry in the region,\u201dhe added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Event Director, Jamie Hosie, said, \u201cAs markets and travel corridors continue to open up, the move to Abu Dhabi makes strategical sense. Abu Dhabi plays an important role in the Middle East\u2019s transport industry, as a central point of business it is the perfect place to stage this crucial gathering of transport titans.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hosie commented, \u201cWith the rail sector looking to invest, governments in this part of the world need to strike a value balance between roads and railways, which is why the Roads & Traffic Show 2022 will be launched alongside Middle East Rail next year. Both events will be looking to holistically serve the transport ecosystem\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Etihad Rail aims to link the UAE\u2019s centres of trade, industry and population, and will provide passenger and freight services. Stage One of the Network has been operational since 2016. Stage Two is progressing at an accelerated pace, achieving75% of the project\u2019s completion. The UAE National Rail Network will play a significant role in providing a modern and sustainable network for transporting freight and passengers, bolstering the leading regional position of the UAE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
