Egypt-based Engineering Consultants Group (ECG) announced that it has been awarded the detailed design and IFC services for the NEOM Mountains Access Roads in NEOM.
The project is a network of routes throughout the mountains region that will be initially utilized to support the construction activity of the region, and then be converted into surface mobility, underground mobility, and logistics & emergency routes for operational purposes.
The roads have a total length of approximately 48km and includes (28) roads.
They are to be prepared as a single carriageway road with 3.65 m lane width per direction and 1.5m hard shoulder on both sides; making the total width 13.3m. In addition, there are a number of bridges and tunnels that are located in specific stations.
The hydrological and flood mitigation studies are considered to provide the required protection along the roads’ alignments; specially for such mountainous area.
