The Royal Commission for AlUla (RCU) signed an agreement with Systra to design AlUla Tram in a move to enhance AlUla’s comprehensive development. The tram will connect several stations and routes, including the historical heritage sites.
AlUla tram is a key project in AlUla’s The Journey Through Time masterplan and a main pillar of the city’s development program, which aims to turn AlUla into a global destination for travelers offering heritage, nature, art and culture, in line with Vision 2030.
Through the tram project, the RCU aims to enhance the sustainability of mobility, and reduce crowd and noise.
The 50-kilometer tram runs from AlUla International Airport in the south to Hegra city in the north.
The design of the project’s initial phase is expected to be complete in 2023. The tram will serve several routes.
