The terminal will comprise 22 buildings and major structures to support operations and it will process up to nine trains a day. “The strategic location of the ICAD railway freight terminal will also drive value for all our customers as it is the largest indoor railway freight terminal in the UAE.” “This milestone brings us closer to achieving our goal of providing an integrated transport system that connects the industrial and manufacturing centres with freight terminals and ports across the emirates,” said Mohammed Al Marzouqi, executive director of the rail relations sector at Etihad Rail. The development of the ICAD railway freight terminal is part of the second stage of the UAE’s national rail network. It will be the largest inland freight terminal in the country and will handle more than 20 million tonnes of cargo a year.Įtihad Rail completed the laying of tracks and conducted successful tests on the new line, which extends from the border with Saudi Arabia to the Port of Fujairah. Planned to be a logistics centre, the terminal at Industrial City of Abu Dhabi (ICAD) will cover more than 2.7 million square feet when complete, Etihad Rail said on Friday. UAE national rail network developer and operator Etihad Rail has connected a major freight terminal that is still under development to the network's main line.
