تعمل وزارة النقل والخدمات اللوجستية على توسعة مطار حائل الدولي، لرفع طاقته الاستيعابية إلى أكثر من 2.2 مليون مسافر سنويًا، ضمن مشروع تنموي شامل يهدف إلى تطوير البنية التحتية للنقل الجوي في شمال المملكة وتعزيز كفاءة المرافق الحيوية في المنطقة.
كشف ذلك مدير عام الإدارة العامة للتخصيص في وزارة النقل والخدمات اللوجستية المهندس سعود عبدالله العريفي، خلال مشاركته في الجلسة الحوارية بعنوان «الفرص الاستثمارية في قطاع النقل والخدمات اللوجستية»، ضمن منتدى حائل، موضحًا أن المشروع يمثل ركيزة رئيسية في خطة الوزارة لتحويل حائل إلى مركز لوجستي متكامل.
وأشار العريفي إلى أن الوزارة، بالتعاون مع هيئة تطوير منطقة حائل، تعمل كذلك على مشروع مركز لوجستي ضخم بمساحة تتجاوز 374,000 متر مربع، يهدف إلى خدمة سلاسل الإمداد وتسهيل حركة البضائع بين مناطق المملكة.
كما أعلن إغلاق مشروع سوق تحرير نقل الركاب بالحافلات، ليشمل جميع مناطق المملكة بما فيها حائل، ما يُسهم في تحسين كفاءة النقل العام وزيادة التغطية الجغرافية للرحلات.
وفي السياق ذاته، يجري العمل على مشروع تطوير الخدمات على جانبي الطرق، لتوفير مرافق متكاملة تلبي احتياجات المسافرين وتدعم سلامة وكفاءة الطرق الإقليمية.
وتأتي هذه المشاريع لتنسجم مع مكانة حائل الجغرافية كمركز متوسط يربط الشمال بالوسط والغرب، ما يعزز قدرتها على لعب دور محوري في مستقبل النقل والخدمات اللوجستية بالمملكة.
يذكر أن مطار حائل الدولي يبعد عن 11 عاصمة عربية 60 دقيقة فقط، وعن وسط أوروبا 200 دقيقة، وتلك هي الميزة النسبية والجغرافية التي أهّلت مطار حائل الدولي في الخدمات اللوجستية، إضافة إلى تمتع مدينة حائل بخطوط طيران داخلية يومية.

The Ministry of Transport and Logistics Services is working on expanding Hail International Airport to increase its capacity to more than 2.2 million passengers annually, as part of a comprehensive development project aimed at enhancing the air transport infrastructure in northern Saudi Arabia and improving the efficiency of vital facilities in the region.
This was revealed by the Director General of the General Department of Privatization at the Ministry of Transport and Logistics Services, Engineer Saud Abdullah Al-Areifi, during his participation in a panel discussion titled "Investment Opportunities in the Transport and Logistics Sector," at the Hail Forum, explaining that the project represents a key pillar in the ministry's plan to transform Hail into an integrated logistics hub.
Al-Areifi pointed out that the ministry, in collaboration with the Hail Development Authority, is also working on a massive logistics center project covering an area of over 374,000 square meters, aimed at serving supply chains and facilitating the movement of goods between different regions of the Kingdom.
He also announced the closure of the passenger bus transport liberalization project, which will include all regions of the Kingdom, including Hail, contributing to improving the efficiency of public transport and increasing the geographical coverage of trips.
In this context, work is underway on a project to develop services along the roads, to provide integrated facilities that meet the needs of travelers and support the safety and efficiency of regional roads.
These projects come in line with Hail's geographical position as a central hub connecting the north with the center and the west, enhancing its ability to play a pivotal role in the future of transport and logistics services in the Kingdom.
It is worth noting that Hail International Airport is only 60 minutes away from 11 Arab capitals and 200 minutes from Central Europe, which is the relative and geographical advantage that qualifies Hail International Airport in logistics services, in addition to the city of Hail enjoying daily domestic flight connections.
