| Rashid expansion

WORK will start next year to connect Rashid Port’s terminal 2 and 3 with a 465-metre bridge, DP World said.

The number of quays will be increased, existing quays expanded and an additional terminal will be built, Arabian Business is reporting.

It is expected Rashid Port will receive 650,000 cruise tourists this season, a 30% rise over the same period last year.
