Traffic congestion is a major problem in Qatar where most of the population are car dependent. The purpose of this study is to understand the influence of various attributes on the system wide and stop level of public buses in Qatar. The study is divided into two parts, macroscopic and mesoscopic levels. In the macroscopic assessment, the study focuses on the bus system in Qatar and the factors affecting ridership, like the population, network expansion, and weather. On the mesoscopic level, the study focuses on factors affecting stop level ridership. A Multiple Linear Regression (MLR) model was developed to identify the parameters that significantly influence the stop level boarding and alighting. The results indicate that planning parameters especially those related to, personal business and shopping places, shopping commuters, restaurant commuters, residents, and number of restaurants are the main factors affecting the bus ridership.

  • HERRENKNECHT Doha Tunnels Its Way to the Top. 111 Kilometers of New Metro Tunnels in 26 Months
    Pioneering Underground Technologies Page 1/7 Press Release HERRENKNECHT Doha tunnels its way to the top. 111 kilometers of new metro tunnels in 26 months. October 11, 2016 Schwanau, Germany / Doha, Qatar September 25, 2016, 10.44 a.m. local time in Doha, Hamad International Airport: unstoppable and precisely a 7 meter tunnel boring machine pierces the final target wall of the "Red Line South". It is the last of 76 breakthroughs in the gigantic milestone project Doha Metro. The TBM breaking through marks the spectacular finale of one of the most ambitious tunnel structures in the world. Cleverly master-planned and highly professionally directed by client Qatar Rail, it took just 26 months to provide the capital of Qatar with three city- wide metro lines: 111 kilometers of brand new, ultra-modern metro tunnel systems. Where before there was nothing, at peak times 2.5 kilometers of tunnel per week were added underground. The result is not only an entry in the Guinness Book of Records. _________________ "The world has never seen such performance. What Qatar Rail and our contractors in Doha have accomplished in just 26 months of construction time with the highest standards of performance, safety and quality is an absolutely Olympic achievement in modern infrastructure development," says Herrenknecht Chairman of the Board of Management Dr.-Ing. E.h. Martin Herrenknecht in summing up the mega tunnelling project Doha Metro that was brilliantly completed on September 25, 2016 with the final breakthrough of one of the company's EPB Shields.

This needs to grow in tandem with infrastructure development. We share the same philosophy of UITP in advocating to “Promote and defend Public Transport & sustained mobility solutions” in bringing together key stakeholders, decision makers & other international organizations for knowledge share and adopt best practices. To meet Qatar’s growing population and economy requires reinforced transportation systems that continue to link industries to markets and people to services. Under the wise leadership of His Highness the Emir, Sheikh Tamim Bin Hamad Al Thani, the Transport ministry was re-established in June’13 with a strategic vision to provide direction on how Qatar’s transportation system will drive future sustainable economic growth and contribute to achieving QNV2030. The country is today investing heavily on transport infrastructure and such investments will be proven wise by achieving an effective integrated multimodal transportation system that will boost economy, enhance quality of life alleviating congestion and pollution besides providing vast employment opportunities.
