Florian Lennert, The head of Mobility at NEOM said:
“We must shift our thinking on mobility to be people-first, not vehicle-first. THE LINE will be built around walkability and nature,”
“This goes to the heart of our approach to urban design, allowing us to create neighbourhoods that feel like a true community and help residents live a greener, healthier lives.”
Mountains, deserts and beaches can be accessed without the need for roads and cars cutting through areas of natural beauty and one more brilliant innovation is urban air mobility, electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft connecting people across NEOM.

“Saudi Arabia has understood that its future is to export green energy, and not oil and gas,”
“If you look at the balance sheet of Saudi Arabia at the moment, of course it’s all oil & gas, but in the future, they’re really looking at green energy.”
