Riyadh Metro Line 7 bids move forward as the Royal Commission for Riyadh City (RCRC) opens commercial proposals for the estimated $900 million project. Consequently, this milestone signals strong progress in expanding Riyadh’s rapid transit network.
Moreover, the authority continues to accelerate procurement while aligning the project with Saudi Arabia’s broader urban mobility strategy.
