The Royal Commission for Riyadh City (RCRC) has appointed Egis to provide consultancy services for the development and maintenance of the upgraded travel forecast model for the city of Riyadh in Saudi Arabia.
In effort to implement the goals of Saudi Arabia Vision 2030, the city of Riyadh aims at substantial growth, in line with sustainable development and lessened dependency on oil and gas, with increased number of educational institutions, health care clinics and improved residential zoning, all supported by the efficient transport links for both private and public transport. The Project services include supporting RCRC in maintaining the existing transport model, and developing the updated version by upgrading from 1500 zones to 3000 zones, and hence becoming more sensitive to the socio-economic and demographic factors in the city.
Egis will be developing the futureproof transportation methods and modal systems to adapt to the rapidly evolving mobility demand for people and goods movement. The collected data will be used for calibrating and implementing multi-modal travel forecast models capable of addressing the heavy traffic and people movement issues.
The future of urbanized transportation systems in the city has been the subject of intensive studies to implement the Riyadh Strategy. The transportation and socio-economic output of the project is expected to support the decision makers and legislators in their plan to maintain, develop and expand the city’s strategic growth.
The vital role of the project will be to address the anticipated iconic mega projects such as King Salman Park, Qiddiya, Diriyah, Misk City, KAFD, King Abdallah International Gardens, Jewan Housing Project, metro & public transport network extension, as well as to evaluate the performance of the current and future multi-modal transportation system for Riyadh.
Egis has a long standing relationship with RCRC, having worked on most prestigious projects in Riyadh and beyond.
