UAE and Oman Launch Second Multimodal Corridor to Bolster Gulf Supply Chain Resilience
Abu Dhabi Ports Group has established a new multimodal transport corridor connecting the UAE's Khalifa Port with Oman's Sohar and Salalah ports. This new route combines sea and road transport to create an alternative to navigating the Strait of Hormuz. The primary goal is to enhance the resilience and efficiency of regional supply chains amid geopolitical tensions. This corridor aims to reduce transit times and costs for cargo, offering a more secure logistics solution for the Gulf region. The initiative strengthens trade links between the two nations and provides a strategic bypass for a critical global chokepoint.
