THE LINE is one of the most ambitious urban development concepts ever announced in the modern era. It is central to Saudi Arabia’s broader transformation agenda, Vision 2030, which aims to diversify the economy, expand tourism, and build a more sustainable future. Unlike conventional cities that spread outward through roads and neighborhoods, THE LINE proposes a linear urban model designed to reduce car dependence and maximize efficiency. Its concept has captured global attention because it challenges nearly every assumption about how cities are built, powered, and experienced. As of today, the project remains in development, with early-stage work, planning revisions, and major infrastructure decisions shaping its future.
