GMS Rehabilitation of the Railway in Cambodia

As Cambodia revives an old rail network, people who used to reside along the railways now enjoy better living conditions in new resettlement sites.

The Government of Australia and the Asian Development Bank are working with the Royal Government of Cambodia and other donor partners to rehabilitate the national railway in Cambodia. The existing railway has fallen into a state of significant disrepair following years of neglect and vandalism dating back to the Khmer Rouge era.
The new railway will position Cambodia as a true-subregional transport hub, creating new jobs and business opportunities in the manufacturing and logistic services sectors. The efficiency and cost-effectiveness of Cambodia's transport system will also be enhanced by enabling the efficient and safe transport of heavy, bulky, and hazardous cargo.
Through these benefits the project will increase the competitiveness of the Cambodian economy.
