  7. Current scenario

  8. Connecting the Red Sea to the Gulf • The Saudi Landbridge (SLB) will be the first rail link between the Red Sea in the west and the Gulf in the east. • The SLB will provide a world-class freight rail link across the country, connecting all major cities and ports • Will offer significant time savings compared to shipping by sea around the Arabian peninsula (5/6 days) • Reduce reliance on the road network and lower the carbon footprint of the supply chain

  9. Connecting the Red Sea to the Gulf Creating a hub • In the Gulf region, Jebel Ali has emerged as a regional distribution center. Currently shipping lines divert from main haul to call at Jebel Ali to deliver the region's containers • Because of its hub status, the UAE has benefited twice over from regional growth • The introduction of the SLB will develop the required infrastructure to position Saudi as a viable alternative to other hubs in the region Resulting in: • Avoiding the need to go to other hubs • Shorter transit times • Quicker route to Riyadh • Reduced congestion at other ports • Ability for companies to service the largest consumer market in the GCC more effectively

  10. New scenario

  11. Summary of key benefits to the logistics industry • The Saudi Landbridge will be an important step in developing the wider logistics infrastructure of KSA by servicing all major locations • Develop Jeddah as a regional hub • Assist KSA ports in their growth by linking Red Sea and Arabian Gulf • Help support further investment in logistics, manufacturing and other industries Achieving this is conditional to: • Enhancing the regulatory framework • Automating customs systems to facilitate transit formalities • Developing major boarder transit points • Wider industry investment
