# NEOM Oxagon

**SYSTRA is working to create the integrated rail transport system for NEOM, the future city in northeastern Saudi Arabia.**

## A city of the future

On the borders of the province of Tabuk and the Gulf of Aqaba, on the shores of
the Red Sea, NEOM, a cross between New (Neo) and Future (Mostaqbal in Arabic),
is being created. These four letters stand for Saudi Arabia’s ambition to build
a sustainable, ultra-connected and self-sufficient region covering an area of
about 26,500 km².

SYSTRA is leading an international consortium which covers the feasibility
study, Technology benchmark, and pre-design references of an integrated regional
and urban rail network to serve the first three urban regions to emerge: The
Line, NEOM Mountain, and NEOM Industrial City. We will also carry out a review
of the potential of different future transport solutions, such as Hyperloop and
the next generation of autonomous electric delivery systems.

## Integrating several modes of transport

The overall system will provide a backbone integrated electric rail transport
system encompassing different modes of transport: a central axis with high
speed, metro, and freight lines (The Spine), running parallel to The Line, a
network serving the entire industrial zone with metro and freight lines (The
NEOM Industrial City Connector), and funiculars to link the Line to NEOM
Mountain.
