Mega transport infrastructure projects (MTIP) which inherent uncertainty and complexity, are in practice all overall the world. These projects concerning their nature show political sensitivity and involve diverse group of stakeholders with conflicting interests. In such situations, decision-making becomes extremely difficult, as the necessary knowledge base for making adequate decisions is lacking due to both uncertainty and conflict of interests. This study aims to identify the stakeholders and their interests, analysing stakeholders' relationships, assessing stakeholders' influences, and practicing stakeholder engagement (SE) in MTIP. In SE there are diverse approaches like operational, practical, and conceptual which will be reviewed in the literature. A model of framework will be proposed to provide new perspectives for identifying the precise interrelationships between the SEs, facilitate the complex processes and guide senior management in meeting project objectives. The proposed framework will also provide an effective SE approach to accommodate stakeholder analysis in MTIP for the planning, decision making and implementation of the project, so as to establish clear project priorities.
