Jordan’s Investment Ministry has briefed potential investors on details of its first elevated speedway overpassing its capital Amman.

The Ministry said it presented technical and financial details of the project at a meeting with private sector investors in Amman on Monday.

The 16-kilometre 'Amman Toll Bridge' will stretch between the capital’s northern and southern edges and will be operated on a toll basis.

The Ministry did not mention project costs but said it would be executed under a public-private partnership (PPP) model that includes design, construction, financing, operation and maintenance.

“This project provides increased traffic capacity, contributes to improving quality of life, and represents a promising investment opportunity within the framework of PPP projects in the infrastructure sector,” the ministry said.
