-The Governments’ appropriate socio-economic reforms -Sustainable macro-economic policies -Successful sectoral and regional strategies and programs

unleashing the potentials for accelerated development


Adversely affected unless development in the transportation sector is attained with sufficient capacity

The Ministry of Transport of Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia was found to be prudent to develop Railway in the country

Technical Advisory Group(TAG) has been Formed to indicate

framework for Railway network in Ethiopia

Preliminary railway priority ranking

Different multi objective Socio-economic indicators or criteria have been utilized to prioritize for the development of National Railway Network

Population Served By the Railway Link (20%) The existing agriculture production and future potential of the Woredas crosses by the link (20%) Existing livestock potentials for the Woredas 10%) The Availability of mining and the types of mines soon ready for immediate production (10%) Contribution of the link for National and International trade and access (5%) Existing Road density and distribution on the Woredas crosses by the link (5%) Investment cost for the link (30%)

Analysis is done based on data collected from different studies under woreda level.

The Existing Addis Ababa-Dire Dawa-Djibouti link is considered to be the first priority as it has already

developed huge corridor traffic and hence is not included in the analysis.

The establishment of Ethiopian Railways Corporation

To Build Railway Infrastructures To Operate Cargo Railway Transport Services To Provide Passenger Railway Transport Services To Engage in other related activities necessary for the attainment of its purpose

Based on the Recommendation of TAG , The Ethiopian Railways Corporation (ERC) has been established by the Council of Ministers

Regulation No. 141/2007 to carry out the following purposes:


10

Ethiopian Railways Alignment selection

The selection of Ethiopian railway alignment is done

using GIS and Remote Sensing technology What are GIS-RS ?

GIS:- Geographic Information System:

a computerized system for collection, storage, manipulation, analysis and presentation of geographically referenced data.

RS:- Remote Sensing :

a satellite based geographic data collection of the earth objects using the response of earth features to electromagnetic radiation of the sun.

Advantages of using GIS-RS

Efficient

Accurate

Cost saving

Fast

Tool that help for decision making

Ethiopian national railway network >>>>

The selected ENRN and LRT have been surveyed (500 m band) using

the latest technology that found in the world i.e Airborne Laser

Scanning Technology (3-D Object Mapping) using Light Detection

and Ranging (LiDAR) technology.

Ethiopia’s Five Year Development Plan (2010/11-2014/15) Growth and Transformation Plan(GTP)

Five Year National Growth and Transformation plan would enable the nation to double the

agricultural produces and the general economic growth by registering 14.9 percent growth

on average.

Facilitate for the industry sector to take the lead in the over all development activities in the country.

Expanding and ensuring quality health and education services towards meeting MDGs targets in the sectors.

Register fast and sustainable economic growth in which the industry sector would play significant role.

Benefits of youth and women have also been the targets by enhancing capacity building and good governance

issues.

Ensure food security at household and national level.

Intensify efforts to address hurdles of investment flow by expanding infrastructure facilities.

Due attention for the development of train, road, telecommunication, power, irrigation, potable water

and sanitation sectors

More than 2,000 km of railway networks would be constructed Generate 8,000 to 10,000 MW from water and wind resources

Thus, Railway construction in different part of the country is one of the

major activities that the GTP gives due attention
