Saudi Arabia and Kuwait are taking an ambitious leap towards progress with the development of a high-speed rail link connecting Riyadh to Kuwait City. This groundbreaking regional transport project is a key part of the two GCC countries’ broader plan to foster economic synergy and enhance sustainable development. With Systra, a global engineering giant, at the helm of the feasibility study (which is scheduled to be completed within a six-month period), the project is a testament to the international capabilities driving this initiative forward.

This project is a key component of the Kuwait Cabinet’s ambitious five-year development plan, aimed at boosting Kuwait’s economic diversification, expanding its sources of income, promoting green mobility and contributing towards lowering carbon emissions. It is also noteworthy that this project will be implemented along with another important railway project, being the GCC railway intended to connect all six countries of the GCC.

Our firm is very excited about the potential impact of this rail link on regional transport, economic diversification, and environmental sustainability. We are proud to have the professional capabilities and successful track record allowing us to support the stakeholders with navigating the shifting regulatory and legal landscapes of such transformative projects in Kuwait.
