RIYADH: Internationally renowned advanced engineering companies will work on NEOM’s The Line Project as the Kingdom steadily moves ahead to become a global tourist destination by 2030, according to NEOM CEO Nadhmi Al-Nasr. 

While talking with Al Arabiya about the project, Al-Nasr said that The Line Project will mark a global shift that the world has not seen so far. 

He further noted that the initial infrastructure works of The Line project began a year ago, and the advanced technologies used in the project that have not been implemented before will raise the quality of the life of residents living here. 

Al-Nasr also added that Saudi Arabian companies are also working with top-rated global firms on the project. 

Recently, Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman unveiled the designs of The Line in NEOM. Al-Nasr revealed that these designs were finalized after six months of discussions with the Crown Prince. 

Al-Nasr added that works on facilities there related to education, university and health will begin next year. 

He further stated that further work in islands and residential areas will be commenced soon.
