  1. Addis Ababa – Djibouti Standard Gauge Railway Project EsMay 2, 2012

  2. Topics of Discussion • Background Information • Development of A.A – Djibouti New Standard Gauge Railway Line • Techno-Economic Feasibility Study • Conclusion

  3. Background A) Socio-Economic Conditions Ethiopia • Area: about 1 million square kilometer • Population: 74 million (2007 Census); 80 million in 2011 Addis Ababa (capital city) • Population: 2.74 Million (2007) cover 32.27% all cities population annual growth rate 2.1% • Growing City : size of 540 sq. km • About 110 Embassies/Consulates • Head Quarters of AU and UNECA

  4. Backgroundcontinued Djibouti • Border countries: Eritrea 109 km, Ethiopia 349 km, Somalia 58 km • Area: 23,200 square kilometer • Population: 774,389 with a growth rate of 2.285% (2012 Census) • Capital: Djibouti • Two-third of the population of the country live in the capital city

  5. Backgroundcontinued • The Economy of the two countries (Ethiopia and Djibouti) is highly integrated and is at the stage of convergence • Various Preferential & Bilateral Agreements • Closely work at different levels The Heads of State and Government Joint Ministerial Commission • Joint Border Administration • Technical Committees • Members of IGAD, COMESA

  6. Backgroundcontinued B) Transport and other infrastructure

  7. Backgroundcontinued C) History of Railway in Ethiopia and Djibouti • Railway service began before 100 yrs (1915) • The Legacy Railway is 1,000 mm gauge with diesel traction • It is owned and administered by the governments of Djibouti and Ethiopia (Bi-lateral ownership and operation) • It stretches from Addis Ababa – Djibouti (about 780 km: 680 in Ethiopia and 100 in Djibouti

  8. Backgroundcontinued • One Meter gauges were very popular in East African Countries (Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania ) • In all of these countries, all suffer from old-age, lack of spares, technology obsolescence • High operating cost, worn out track, too old Locomotives, low capacity (12 -16 Ton/Axle) • Intermittent service only in few one segment (Dire Dawa to Port of Djibouti – 459 km) • A legacy system and historical tie of sisterly countries

  9. Ethiopian National Railway Network

  10. Background continued G) Railway Development Approach • Two Phases of development • 1st Phase/GTP (2010/11- 2014/15) about 2,395 km • 2nd Phase (2015/16 – 2020/21) about 2,665 km • Deploy multiple Lots in parallel • National Railway Network Characteristics • Standard Gauge (1,435 mm) • Electric Traction • High Capacity (22 - 25 Ton/axle) • Moderate Speed (120- 160 km/hr for passenger and 120 km/hr for freight) • Concrete Sleeper (160cm x20.5cmx22cm)

  11. Development of A.A – Djibouti continued

  12. Development of A.A – Djibouti continued b) Consultation: Bilateral (with Republic of Djibouti) • Signed MoU on June 10, 2010 “The Development and Operation of Standard Gauge Railway Line between Ethiopia and Djibouti” • Follow-up meetings and work visits by Ministers • Establishment of technical working group • Technical experts experience sharing • Submission of draft Bilateral agreement on “The Development and Operation of a Standard Gauge Railway Network”by FDRE to the RoD

  13. Development of A.A – Djibouti continued c) Consultation with EPC/Turnkey Contractors • Construction contract for Addis Ababa – Mieso Signed on October 25, 2011 • Construction contract for Mieso – Dawanle (border of Ethiopia with Djibouti) signed December 16, 2011. • Construction Contract Project from Ethiopian border to the Port of Djibouti has signed

  14. Techno-Economic Feasibility Continued 3.3 Transport Demand Forecast - Volume

  15. Techno-Economic Feasibility Continued 3.3 Transport Demand Forecast - Volume

  16. Techno-Economic Feasibility Continued 3.4 Project Financing and Cost Estimate • Financing • 15% Equity and 85% loan • Cost Estimate

  17. 5. Conclusion • The project has great socio economic significance or the Peoples and Governments of Ethiopia and Djibouti • The Corridor has sub-regional, regional and continental importance • The Project is • Socially Acceptable; • Technically Feasible; • Economically Viable • Environment Friendly
