Planovi izgradnje pruge Bahrein-Doha

Post by 441-905 »

DOHA: A high-speed rail link is being planned between Education City and Bahrain that would make a one-way journey possible in just 51 minutes.

The idea is to woo Bahraini students to enrol at the various prestigious foreign universities and educational institutions in Education City.

This is part of an ambitious QR133bn ($42.9bn) railway project Qatar is about to launch, which includes a metro network within Greater Doha, an inter-GCC rail link and a rail freight network.

Details of the plans were revealed yesterday to representatives of the international media who are covering the visit of the FIFA inspection team that is examining Qatar’s bid to host the football World Cup in 2022.

The Education City-Bahrain rail link is expected to be ready for operation by 2017, said Sultan Bakhit Al Enazi, Qatar Railway Project Manager, in remarks to media persons during a briefing.

“It would take 51 minutes straight between Education City and Bahrain once the rail link is ready,” he said, adding that trains on this route would be travelling at a speed of 350 kilometres an hour.
