THE LINE

By: Hassan Zubair

Saudi Arabia has started working on making, one of its projects, its project THE LINE. It is being built by a lot of artificial intelligence according to NEOM’s Executive Director Giles Pendleton.
Pendleton told iPak officials that they have to build a lot of the real estate in a very short period of time. He added that the Line is not just being built but a series of modular pieces that are pre-engineered and predetermined as to what they are intended for.

By Pendleton’s remarks, we concluded that blocks are being made elsewhere. Since they need those blocks in millions. avoiding the headache of transporting these blocks far. Pendleton told us that the blocks are being manufactured with a very simple optimized and industrialized production in NEOM. Thinking of it as a giant assembly center pre-engineered parts are easy to maintain quality and dimensions.

NEOM designed The LINE for 9 million residents with a footprint of 34 square kilometers. The project is designed in such a way that all the facilities are provided to its resident within a 5-minute walking distance. The location of the LINE is projected as a link between Red Sea Coast and Northwest Saudi Arabia.

The Chairman of the NEOM board of Directors and the Crown prince of Saudi Arabia, Muhammad Bin Salman said “The designs revealed today for the city’s vertically layered communities will challenge the traditional flat, horizontal cities and create a model for nature preservation and enhanced human livability. The Line will tackle humanity’s challenges in urban life today and will shine a light on alternative ways to live.”
