PROJECT UNDERSTANDING

The city of Khartoum has a population of approximately 7 million people, and this is growing. The city’s infrastructure has not kept pace with the population growth or the physical growth and Khartoum’s current road infrastructure is experiencing heavy traffic, congestion, air pollution and major travel delays.
There is thus a need to address the transportation shortfall.

The present proposal includes the studies for the Tram project in Khartoum.
For the present situation, the extents of the Line are already defined according with client solicitation:

• Restudy of the 11km feasibility study of Line A (1)
• Feasibility and Preliminary study for line A (2) 7km
• Feasibility and Preliminary study for line B (1) 15km

The design of integrated transport systems is a multi-dimensional problem where road users often compete for resources and priorities.
In evaluating priorities for Tram installation, the effect upon the transportation system as a whole should be assessed, taking into account such factors as avoidable roadway construction and the number of line haul buses that would be directly replaced.

The tram is proposed to share highway space with other road traffic including buses and delivery vehicles, which adds complexity to the design problem. One of the key operational objectives of the tram system is to ensure reliable and appropriate journey times.
