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 transport 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.
