Jordan and the UAE have begun constructing the Aqaba–Shidiya–Maan railway, a major transport project overseen by King Abdullah and Abu Dhabi crown prince Sheikh Khaled. The railway, managed by the UAE–Jordan Railway Company, will transport approximately 13 million tonnes of phosphate annually from Shidiya mines to the Red Sea port of Aqaba. This initiative aims to enhance phosphate transport, reduce shipping costs, and connect Jordan's resources to international markets.
