Client
Ministry of Transportation
Duration
7 Months (February 2021 – September 2021)
Location
Egypt
Project Overview
This project aimed to assess the feasibility of connecting cement factories to the railway network to improve logistics and expand market access. By linking factories to major transport corridors and export ports, the project seeks to streamline the supply of raw materials and facilitate the export of surplus production, particularly targeting African markets.
Scope of work:
- This project focused on conducting a feasibility study to connect cement factories to the railway network, facilitating the transport of raw materials to factories and the shipment of surplus production to export ports, particularly targeting African countries.
- The study aimed to evaluate the demand for transportation and design efficient railway connections, and develop scenarios to optimize railway logistics. Additionally, the project includes hydrological, financial, economic, environmental, and social studies to assess the viability and sustainability of the proposed railway links.
Outcomes:
- A detailed feasibility report outlining technical, financial, and environmental viability.
- Optimized railway connection designs that improve raw material supply and product distribution.
- Strategic recommendations for railway logistics to enhance operational efficiency.
- Insights into the economic and social benefits of connecting cement factories to the railway network, supporting long-term industrial growth and export potential.
