Qatar has approved a 100km railway connecting Doha to the Saudi border at Abu Semra — a pivotal step toward joining the Gulf Railway network. Expected to be operational by 2030, this line will ease travel, strengthen trade, and promote tourism across the GCC. Linking major cities like Doha, Dubai, and Muscat, it promises faster, greener, and more connected journeys across the Gulf region.
