  • 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

  • Uber Launches Its First MENA-Wide Series of Events Called Ignite
    Uber launches its first MENA-wide series of events called Ignite January 18, 2021 Uber announces the launch of Uber Ignite, its first series of events that brings together the diverse perspectives of thought leaders, regulators, corporates, start-ups and innovators to collectively address a number of urban challenges faced in the MENA region. The series aims to equip guests with the knowledge needed to unlock and maximize technology-focused opportunities for growth in our communities. Abdellatif Waked, General Manager of Uber Middle East and Africa, commented on the launch: “I’m excited for Ignite to launch in the MENA region as a platform for dialogue and engagement to address current urban challenges. As our region continues to modernise and develop at an increasing rate, we believe we can play a key role in bringing together experts from across multiple sectors and industries to collectively address issues and provide recommendations.” Titled as ‘Tech for Transport Safety’, Uber Ignite's inaugural panel discussion will be held on January 26, and will focus on how safety across multiple modes of transport is evolving, and the role of technology in meeting the current mobility demands in urban development. Representatives from Virgin Hyperloop, Derq, Trella, General Motors, and Uber will bring their expertise to the discussion to shine light on potential solutions that be conceptualised and developed across the region. The event will be hosted virtually due to Covid-19 for the safety of all participants and attendees. About Uber: Uber’s mission is to bring reliable transportation to everywhere, for everyone. We started in 2010 to solve a simple problem: how do you get a ride at the touch of a button? Seven years and more than two billion trips later, we have started tackling an even greater challenge: reducing congestion and pollution in our cities by getting more people into fewer cars.

  • Egypt: Palestinian Pilgrims Stranded in Arish
    Egypt: Palestinian DREF operation n° MDREG006 Pilgrims Stranded in 16 December 2008 Arish The International Federation’s Disaster Relief Emergency Fund (DREF) is a source of un-earmarked money created by the International Federation in 1985 to ensure that immediate financial support is available for Red Cross Red Crescent response to emergencies. The DREF is a vital part of the International Federation’s disaster response system and increases the ability of National Societies to respond to disasters. Summary: CHF 150,000 (USD 129,650 or EUR 94,975) was allocated from the International Federation’s Disaster Relief Emergency Fund (DREF) on 31 December 2007 to support the Egyptian Red Crescent (Egyptian RC) in delivering assistance to Palestinian pilgrims and to replenish disaster preparedness stocks. The first instalment of the DREF allocation was used to replenish the basic disaster preparedness stocks (relief items) of the Egyptian RC depleted to cover the immediate needs of the Palestinian pilgrims who were returning from pilgrimage and were stranded for days in the Egyptian Sinai. On 24 April, an extension of the timeframe of the operation was requested until the end of August 2008 based on the information given by the Egyptian RC and due to the repeated crises on the Egyptian borders. <click here for the final financial report, or here to view contact details> Map of Egypt showing El-Arish The situation Palestinian pilgrims returning from pilgrimage arrived in Egypt on 30 December 2007, mostly by ferries and through the Nuweiba port of the Red Sea. The pilgrims had planned to go back home through the Rafah border crossing point, which was the border used on their way to Mecca.

  • Assessment Impact of the Damietta Harbour (Egypt) and Its Deep Navigation Channel on Adjacent Shorelines
    Journal of Integrated Coastal Zone Management (2020) 20(4): 265-281 © 2020 APRH ISSN 1646-8872 DOI 10.5894/rgci-n338 url: https://www.aprh.pt/rgci/rgci-n338.html ASSESSMENT IMPACT OF THE DAMIETTA HARBOUR (EGYPT) AND ITS DEEP NAVIGATION CHANNEL ON ADJACENT SHORELINES Mohsen M. Ezzeldin1, Osami S. Rageh2, Mahmoud E. Saad3 @ ABSTRACT: Deep navigation channels have a great impact on adjacent beaches and crucial economic effects because of periodic dredging operations. The navigation channel of the Damietta harbour is considered a clear example of the sedimentation problem and deeply affects the Northeastern shoreline of the Nile Delta in Egypt. The aim of the present study is to monitor shoreline using remote sensing techniques to evaluate the effect of Damietta harbour and its navigation channel on the shoreline for the last 45 years. Also, the selected period was divided into two periods to illustrate the effect of man-made interventions on the shoreline. Shorelines were extracted from satellite images and then the Digital Shoreline Analysis System (DSAS) was used to estimate accurate rates of shoreline changes and predict future shorelines evolution of 2030, 2040, 2050 and 2060. The Damietta harbour created an accretion area in the western side with an average rate of 2.13 m year-1. On the contrary, the shoreline in the eastern side of the harbour retreated by 92 m on average over the last 45 years. So, it is considered one of the main hazard areas along the Northeastern shoreline of the Nile Delta that needs a sustainable solution. Moreover, a detached breakwaters system is predicted to provide shore stabilization at the eastern side as the implemented one at Ras El-Bar beach.
