en.Wedoany.com Reported - The Jordan Investment Ministry has recently officially launched the investment solicitation process for Amman's first elevated bridge highway project, seeking global investors to participate in the construction through the Public-Private Partnership (PPP) model. The project includes a 16-kilometer-long toll bridge planned to be constructed along King Abdullah II Road in the capital, Amman.

The elevated bridge project is planned to have four lanes, with two dedicated to private vehicles and the other two reserved for public transport. According to the arrangement by the Jordan Investment Ministry, a special meeting was held this Monday to brief potential investors on the specific details of the PPP agreement. The contract scope covers the entire process of the project's design, construction, financing, operation, and maintenance. Although the ministry has not yet disclosed specific cost estimates, it has clarified that this project represents a significant investment opportunity in the infrastructure sector.

As a key component of Jordan's 2035 National Development Strategy, this tolled elevated bridge project is one of the series of major infrastructure projects recently announced by the country. In December 2025, the Jordanian government previously announced a 25-year plan for the "Allah City" green city development. This new city is located in central Jordan, approximately 40 kilometers from the capital, Amman, and about 35 kilometers from Queen Alia International Airport.

Currently, the Jordanian government is actively facilitating the implementation of PPP projects through its legal framework. The execution of this elevated bridge project will shorten commute times in the capital's core area and provide support for the transportation connectivity of subsequent strategic projects like Allah City. With the initiation of the investment solicitation process, Jordan's infrastructure market is expected to welcome a new wave of capital inflow, promoting the modernization transformation of the country's multimodal transport system.
