Official media reported that Prime Minister Mohammed Al-Sudani received a feasibility study for part of the planned trans-Iraq rail line on Thursday.
At Wednesday's meeting to discuss launching 'The Development Road', Sudani reviewed the study and bids from international firms, the Iraqi News Agency reported.
The statement did not identify the Italian firm. Still, Iraqi officials have said the Italian engineering services company Italferr has won the feasibility study contract for the $17 billion project, which involves building a 1,200-km rail line and a motorway from South Iraq to the northern border with Turkey. As part of the ongoing Al Faw Port project, Italferr has provided railway engineering consultancy.
