Saudi Arabia’s Red Sea destination outlines its ambitious projects in infrastructure, real estate, environment and community services, designed to transform the country’s prime leisure destination into a modern city that offers a high quality of life to both residents and visitors.
n 2009, Jeddah’s government has launched the Jeddah Strategic Plan as a vision and framework for Jeddah’s future growth and development. Te vision is “to transform Jeddah into a modern and internationally competitive city delivering a high quality of life to its communities as well as protecting the environment for the benefit of future generations.” “Te Plan strives to ensure Jeddah’s continued global competitiveness

in attracting tourism, investment and business growth, whilst guiding the city towards a sustainable future. It will also help strengthen Jeddah’s
position as the Gateway to the Holy Cities of Makkah and Madinah, creating a welcoming atmosphere for the thousands of pilgrims who pass through our city each year,” said Adel M. Fakeih, Mayor of Jeddah. A rapidly growing population, aged infrastructure and a significant shortage of housing, especially affordable units, were the key drivers behind the development of the Jeddah Plan. Te Plan broadly covers a period of 20 years and outlines Jeddah’s long- term strategy in the context of environmental, social and economic factors.
