Saudi Arabia The Line Linear City NEOM
Saudi Arabia will invest up to $200-billion to build “The Line”, a futuristic 100-mile-long linear city with no cars or streets and zero net carbon emissions. These hyper-connected communities stretch from the mountains of northwest Saudi Arabia to the Red Sea, powered completely 100% clean energy, with residents transported by autonomous mobility solutions and ultra-high-speed transit. The city will consist of three layers: a surface layer for pedestrians and two subterranean layers for transport as well as infrastructure. Read more for two videos and additional information.



The communities aim to be cognitive, powered by Artificial Intelligence (AI), continuously learning predictive ways to make life easier, while also creating time for both residents and businesses. It will use an estimated 90% of available data to harness and enhance infrastructure capabilities far beyond the 1% typically utilized in existing smart cities.

Saudi Arabia The Line Linear City NEOM

Throughout history, cities were built to protect their citizens. After the Industrial Revolution, cities prioritized machines, cars and factories over people. In cities that are viewed as the world’s most advanced, people spend years of their lives commuting. By 2050, commute durations will double. By 2050, one billion people will have to relocate due to rising CO2 emissions and sea levels. 90% of people breathe polluted air. Why should we sacrifice nature for the sake of development? Why should seven million people die every year because of pollution? Why should we lose one million people every year due to traffic accidents? And why should we accept wasting years of our lives commuting?,” said his Royal Highness Mohammed bin Salman, Crown Prince and Chairman of the NEOM Company Board of Directors.
