New railway and road tunnel projects to meet the regions transportation needs
As governments in the Middle East continue to invest heavily in transportation infrastructure, the number of underground construction projects, both already in progress and planned, is rising. The GCC is investing over $100bn in rail projects and another $38.6bn worth of road projects are either planned or underway. These projects include the delivery of underground infrastructure to connect the transportation networks. Tunnelling World Middle East is a three day strategic conference that will gather urban planning, transportation, engineering and construction professionals together to discuss the challenges and opportunities in planning, designing and building world class underground transportation infrastructure. This event will explore strategies for master planning, design, safety, security and effective maintenance of tunnels. International and regional speakers will share their tunnelling challenges and experiences from projects such as the Dubai Metro, Al Salam Street Tunnel, London Tube, New Doha International Airport Metro, Qatar Rail and many others. You will have an opportunity to hear innovative construction and operation strategies and share best practices. Source solutions, ideas and innovation on how to: Evaluate key considerations for planning rail and road tunnels Reduce ground disturbance in urban areas Develop strategies to deal with difficult ground conditions Reduce construction delays through risk assessments
