The Light Rapid Train Project The Light Rapid Train Project Adly Mansour ( El Salam) to The New Capital and 10 Th of Ramdan City Friendly cooperation between the oldest two historical civilizations Final Report Updating Forecasting Study Namat for Engineering Consultancy Dr. Mostafa Sabry – Dr. Hatem Abdel-Latif • In the transportation master plan of Greater Cairo Region (GCR) (CREATS, 2003), two options have been investigated to develop a mass transit system serving the corridor. The first option was a busway, utilizing the middle of the Ismailia Road for an exclusive and dedicated busway. This option was abandoned as it will lead to increasing traffic congestion, and therefore decreasing the internal rate of return of the project. The most promising option was the use of the existing railway line between Ain Shams and Robaikey, with an extension to 10th of Ramadan City. A feasibility study was carried out along with a demand forecast analysis derived from CREATS model, and the results showed high demand projections on the line. Noteworthy is that the focus of CREATS study was on heavy-rail-based options; namely diesel-operated trains. 1.

  • Chapter 4 Logistics-Related Facilities and Operation: Land Transport
    Chapter 4 Logistics-related Facilities and Operation: Land Transport THE STUDY ON MULTIMODAL TRANSPORT AND LOGISTICS SYSTEM OF THE EASTERN MEDITERRANEAN REGION AND MASTER PLAN FINAL REPORT Chapter 4 Logistics-related Facilities and Operation: Land Transport 4.1 Introduction This chapter explores the current conditions of land transportation modes and facilities. Transport modes including roads, railways, and inland waterways in Egypt are assessed, focusing on their roles in the logistics system. Inland transport facilities including dry ports (facilities adopted primarily to decongest sea ports from containers) and to less extent, border crossing ports, are also investigated based on the data available. In order to enhance the logistics system, the role of private stakeholders and the main governmental organizations whose functions have impact on logistics are considered. Finally, the bottlenecks are identified and countermeasures are recommended to realize an efficient logistics system. 4.1.1 Current Trend of Different Transport Modes Sharing The trends and developments shaping the freight transport industry have great impact on the assigned freight volumes carried on the different inland transport modes. A trend that can be commonly observed in several countries around the world is the continuous increase in the share of road freight transport rather than other modes. Such a trend creates tremendous pressure on the road network. Japan for instance faces a situation where road freight’s share is increasing while the share of the other

  • 2 Assessment of Information Needs and Collection of Additional Data
    2 Assessment of Information Needs and Collection of Additional Data 2.1 Introduction Greater Cairo Area and Population Cairo or rather the urban region of the Greater Cairo Metropolitan Area is the largest urban area in Egypt, Africa and the Middle East and amongst the most populous metropolises of the world. It occupies the 10th rank within mega cities across the world in the period between 2000 and 20152. Greater Cairo has been the centre of gravity for many of Egypt’s activities. It has grown mainly due to increased migration from rural areas, and high growth rates were witnessed during the second half of the 20th century vis-à-vis investments, economic activities, job opportunities and number of students. At the turn of the 21st century, Greater Cairo started to get its contemporary structure as a “main dense urban area” with varied socioeconomic levels encircled by the Ring Road and an “outer belt” of 8 new satellite cities as shown in Figure 2.1. In 2006, the population of Greater Cairo Area reached 17 million people spread across Cairo, Giza and Qaylobiya and the new cities listed in Table 2.1 below. The urbanization continues to progress, and the performance of the entire transport system is less than desirable, despite the massive efforts striven by the Egyptian government to tackle traffic congestion and environmental deterioration, by introducing a metro system and a comprehensive bus network.
