We are providing construction project management consultancy and contract administration services for the mega real estate project, Rua Al-Madinah, in Saudi Arabia. This project includes a 5km tunnel.
Rua Al-Madinah Tunnel Management
Under the $15 million contract, which is part of the Rua Al-Madinah project in the holy city of Al-Madinah Al-Munawarah, we will manage the main infrastructure, including the tunnel, road, and utility works.
The vehicle tunnel will be a concrete rectangular structure measuring 32 m x 10 m. Situated in a central area of the city, the tunnel is designed to improve the traffic flow to the city center where Al-Masjid an-Nabawi, known in English as the Prophet’s Mosque, is located.
Modernizing While Honoring Tradition
The Rua Al-Madinah project is a key initiative of Saudi Vision 2030, designed to elevate the city’s cultural and historical heritage, improve the quality of life for its residents, and enrich the visitor experience for Islamic pilgrims.
The 1.5 million square-meter development will provide 63 percent of open, green spaces; new modes of transportation and parking that will provide easy access to the Prophet’s Mosque, surrounding residences, and commercial spaces; and host 47,000 hotel rooms to help accommodate the 30 million Islamic pilgrims that will visit the city in the coming years. The Rua Al-Madinah project represents the first phase of Madinah Central Area mega development and is projected to add $37 million to the GDP and will create 93,000 new jobs.
