Saudi Arabia's Transport General Authority (TGA) has confirmed the full readiness of the kingdom's fleet of over 500,000 trucks to maintain freight services and supply chain continuity, across the country and the wider Gulf region.
The land transport system, supported by 18,500 licensed companies, will serve as a vital link between ports, airports, industrial cities, and logistics zones, ensuring the smooth flow of goods across Saudi Arabia and the Gulf region.
The Authority noted that freight operations are managed through advanced organisational and technical procedures to optimise traffic flow between the western coast ports and regional logistics routes.
This integrated approach has resulted in complete market stability and ample transport capacity, reinforcing the reliability of the Kingdom's logistics sector and its role in regional trade.
The TGA also announced that it has launched a directory of licensed truck freight carriers on the 'Logisti' platform, enabling local and international companies to easily access approved transporters and enhancing the efficiency of goods transport within the Kingdom and internationally.
The directory allows beneficiaries to view a list of licensed carriers and identify the destinations they serve, whether for domestic transport or shipments to GCC countries and other Arab states. It also provides information on the types of trucks and trailers available with each carrier, said the statement.
According to TGA, the directory enables cargo owners, agents and businesses to access licensed carriers and contact them directly, thereby enhancing the reliability and efficiency of freight transport operations in line with approved regulations.
The Logisti platform supports smoother freight movement and improves the efficiency of logistics services in line with the Kingdom’s transport and logistics development goals.-TradeArabia News Service
