Greater Amman Municipality launches urban transport development project with Korean grant
Al-Taj News – The Greater Amman Municipality launched, on Monday, a project to develop the urban transport system in the capital, funded by a grant provided by the Korea International Cooperation Agency (KOICA) worth $5.48 million. The project includes preparing a comprehensive transport strategy, implementing pilot projects for traffic intersections and smart public transport systems, and is scheduled to run until the fourth quarter of 2030.
The project, titled “Urban Transport Resilience Management Strategy and Action Plan in the Greater Amman Municipality,” comes based on the grant agreement signed last August, with the aim of developing a more efficient and integrated urban transport system, improving traffic flow, and enhancing connectivity between the capital’s regions.
The project’s scope of work includes preparing a comprehensive urban transport strategy that features a future roadmap for developing the sector in Amman, alongside implementing specialized capacity-building programs for decision-makers and engineering and technical staff, and applying pilot projects for traffic intersections and smart public transport systems.
