Amman
LRT planned

Since the 1990s, there have been plans for a metro or light rail line between Amman and Zarqa City. Plans seem to now be moving ahead as the Jordanian government invites bids for a 25 km line that would run on the existing Hedjaz railway alignment.  The line's proposed opening date is 2008.  Among the invited bidders are Alstom, Bombardier and Aladdin.  A more recent report says a commuter line between the two cities is about to break ground. Then, in June 2005, the news was announced - Amman was to to build a 26 km light rail line.

Plans for a subway?
