Conclusion: Yanbu has all the right factors to become a World Class Logistics Hub Yanbu Centre of the Region The development and creation of a multi-modal logistics hub is one of the most important projects, which will not only increase the competitiveness of existing industries but also attract new investments and provide employment opportunities RCY plans to establish MMLH in Yanbu and link it with Red Sea Coast Rail corridor due to: Current freight traffic volumes justify today a connectivity with the rail and it can be before the land bridge connectivity is realized. Future Multi-Modal Logistics Hub (MMLH) will support current customers and is a prerequisite for many potential investors. MMLH will leverage RCY, KAP and JIP as the Red Sea logistics gateway for KSA and the world. Current freight traffic volumes in container export: 2014: 2,900 TEU/ Day (1 Mil/year) = 6 trains/day one direction
