Riyadh Mayor, Prince Faisal bin Ayyaf, said the city’s new masterplan is under study to see possible growth potentials.

 

The vertical and horizontal growth of Riyadh and its readiness to accommodate 15-20 million population, as previously announced by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, depends on two factors. First, the city’s masterplan, which includes a large number of vacant land and developed land plots that can see further development.

 

Second, the development limit, which will be reconsidered when the masterplan is finalized to determine the target population in Riyadh, Prince Faisal added.

 

On the other hand, he said that most projects in Riyadh will be partially open by 2030, adding that some of the Riyadh Metro project’s outputs will be ready this year.
