Transport

Saudi Arabia Transport

Saudi Arabia’s transport and logistics sector encompasses a broad range of active facilities and routes. Given the Kingdom’s position between Europe and Asia and its central role in the global energy market, as well as the current importance of imported goods for meeting basic consumer demand, transport and logistics are crucial to the economy. Plans for the sector’s future involve a transformative programme aimed at leveraging geographic advantages and providing key services to the global economy. As the country’s leadership works to implement these steps, major projects at home – including an expansive new metro system for Riyadh, one of the most highly anticipated infrastructure projects – promise to transform the options available to residents.

This chapter contains interviews with Faisal Saad Albedah, Managing Director and CEO, SAL Saudi Logistics Services; and Omar Hariri, President, Saudi Ports.
