3 Transport and logistics infrastructure the Kingdom s multi-billion dollar engine for growth and diversification Transportation has always been an important pillar of every nation s economy and the key to sustainable development. Therefore, it is considered one of the main sectors that contribute effectively to the renaissance of any country. Without an efficient transport sector, it would be hard to benefit from the basic advantages of any location or invest in the available opportunities for production. Since 2008, the Saudi government have invested heavily in transport infrastructure projects as part of its efforts to expand and diversify the economy. Ports have been built, airports expanded and upgraded, and railway and metro projects initiated and in some cases already completed. Saudi Arabia is investing US$140 billion over the next 10 years in expanding and upgrading its transportation sector, acknowledging its big need to expand its five main sector s components: maritime, rail, road, air transportation, warehousing and distribution seaports. Major infrastructure projects include Riyadh Metro, Mecca Metro, Jeddah Airport and Riyadh Airport.

4 Transportation sector and population growth The transportation and logistics sector has played a prominent role in the socio-economic development of Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Given the worldwide trends and statistics on urban population growth, the country has always focused on re-planning and re-designing of existing cities in order to absorb the pressure of increasing urban populations, in a manner that will improve environmental sustainability and energy efficiency. The Kingdom is implementing short and medium term strategies that will get the population to begin transitioning from conventional modes to environmentally-sustainable modes of transport. The Kingdom has begun thinking of the future needs of the population for more proactive solutions to emerge in the transportation sector in Saudi Arabia, especially in big cities like Jeddah, Riyadh and Dammam.

5 National Transformation Plan (Vision 2030) The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, under the National Transformation Plan and Vision 2030, has set up an investment program to wean the economy off its dependence on oil and enhance the development of the country. The cities in the country have grown significantly during the last years, which required the fast and steady development of the infrastructure. The Kingdom is overhauling its transport sector as part of Vision 2030 that seeks to incorporate greater private sector participation in the economy. The Transport Ministry has already partnered with the private sector to build or operate airports, expand its ports and railways seeking bidders for the construction of a 1,600-kilometer railroad linking the Red Sea with the Arabian Gulf at the end of this year. Saudi Arabia has also earmarked billion riyals for infrastructure and transport projects in the 2017 fiscal year, up from 39 per cent from actual expenditures for the sector in the previous fiscal year. The plan focuses on the localization of the transportation and logistics services sector through the adjustment and connection of the investors with open opportunities. The initiatives and goals focus on train manufacturing in Makkah and Jeddah, operating and maintaining of the metro in Riyadh, manufacturing the components of buses, trains and metro, establishing a strategy to localize the airlines, supporting Saudi sea and land port to localize the coastal processes and laying a unified investment vision to direct the investments to serve the national economy of the Kingdom.

6 Saudi Arabian infrastructure projects Saudi Arabia has allocated $43.8 billion for transport, logistics, telecommunications and other related infrastructure Some of the main transportation projects currently underway are: Haramain High Speed Rail ($11.1bn): project covering a new 450km high-speed rail line linking Saudi Arabia s holy cities of Makkah and Madinah to Jeddah and to the new King Abdullah Economic City being constructed in Rabigh. The project is set to complete next year. Jeddah Metro ($8.5bn): The project will include three lines. The main one will be a 67km line with 22 stations connecting Makkah Road with Obhur, while a Blue Line containing 17 stations will run from the new King Abdulaziz International airport the the Old Airport Road. A third Green Line will run for 17km along Palestine Road and will also have a branch line to Jeddah s old airport. Riyadh Metro ($7-8bn): Plans for a six-line, 85-station metro network planned for Saudi Arabia s capital. It is built with a view to provide an integrated public transport system to a city whose roads are already incredibly busy, and whose population is projected to grow by 40% by Saudi Landbridge ($7bn): The Red Sea to the Gulf rail line is an integral part of the GCC s connected rail network. A 950km line between Riyadh and Jeddah, and a second 115km line between Dammam and Jubail are being designed. Transit times for freight between Jeddah and Dammam will be reduced to 18 hours, compared with the current sea voyage of 5-7 days, with capacity for 8m tonnes of freight a year.
