Work on the Haramain high-speed rail project in Saudi Arabia has been completed, the Makkah Region Development Authority said on Thursday.

 

The 450-km long railway will link the Kingdom’s holy cities of Makkah and Madinah, passing through Jeddah and Rabigh.

 

Rumaih Al Rumaih, chief executive of the Saudi Railway Co. (SAR), said earlier this year that the project would begin operations in early 2018.
