Medina Metro is a proposed three-line metro system planned for the city of Medina, Saudi Arabia. [1]
On 4 November 2013, the Saudi Council of Ministers announced plans to build a metro in Medina within eight years. [2] A committee to oversee the project was chaired by the then Governor of Medina Province, Faisal bin Salman.
In March 2015, the Medina Development Authority awarded a 12‑month contract to the French companies SYSTRA (consortium leader) and Egis Group to conduct feasibility studies and produce a preliminary design for the network. [3]
As of the most recent public information, construction has not yet begun, and the project remains in the planning and design phase.
Total route length of 95 km (25 km underground, 48 km elevated). [4]
