The Saudi Landbridge is a railway line currently under development by the Saudi Railway Company (SAR).[1]
The 950 km (594 miles) ‘’Landbridge Line” has been planned to link Jeddah on the Red Sea coast with Riyadh, where it would link up with both the North-South Railway and the lines to Dammam, although no plan for construction has been announced.[2]
Intended mainly for freight,[3] the railway will connect Jeddah on the Red Sea coast with the Saudi Arabian capital Riyadh.[4] The existing 450 km line between Riyadh and Dammam will be upgraded,[5] and a second 115 km new line is planned to connect Dammam with Jubail on the coast of the Persian Gulf.[4][3] The newly constructed lines will be single track, but the infrastructure (including bridges and tunnels) will be designed to permit a future upgrade to dual track.[5] The project is part of the Saudi vision 2030 that aims at being a logistic hub that connects the three contracts together.[6]
