To put into perspective the magnitude of this development, NEOM is fourteen times the size of Singapore or roughly the same size as Belgium.
It is understood that in the coming years NEOM will be established as an independent region; ‘A country within a country’ governed by its own laws and regulations, with new cities including Oxagon and THE LINE setting the pace for transformation.
The line
Part of the plans for NEOM include a 170km long ‘linear’ city which will stretch from the Red Sea all the way to the mountains in the northwest of the country. HRH the Crown Prince is planning to invest up to $200 billion in this futuristic city, which will have no cars, streets and crucially, no carbon emissions. Autonomous mobility solutions will be used in place of traditional transport, and sustainable initiatives will preserve the regions natural environment to ensure it is a safe place for people to live.
