The aim of this thesis was to study the possibility of implementing rolling highway system in Iraq and to highlight its impact and contribution in the development of transport industry in the coun-try, also it may contribute to the development of economy in Iraq by reaching the Mediterranean sea, which will allow the country to export oil and import goods in huge amounts without obsta-cles.
The problem is that the capacity of transport industry in Iraq doesn't match the capacity required. Furthermore, the accidents, air and noise pollution and consumption in general that are caused by transport industry have a huge impact on the economy and environment.
In this study it is concentrated mainly on goods import as there are only two major companies (State Company for Land Transport and General Company for Iraqi Railways) that are responsible for land transportation. Additionally, these two companies don't work together in order to cover the needs of the country.
The thesis concentrates on combined transportation option, which is seen more effective for the transport industry, which can cause less environmental pollution, accidents and lower costs.
Implementing such an idea in the transport industry of Iraq can cause an economic boom and specifically benefit the Ministry of Transportation and their beneficiaries, which will also benefit the consumer.
The thesis highlights the challenges of analyzing the structure of the land transport, the possibili-ties of using rolling highway system in Iraq, and the impact of using such system on the overall transport.
