Is THE LINE Even Possible To Build?
The Line mega-city, which is the flagship development for Saudi Arabia's NEOM project was billed as a linear city of the future, an ambitious centrepiece of the economic plan backed by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman to transition Saudi Arabia away from oil dependency. Now however, plans for the mirror-clad desert metropolis have been scaled down and the project, which was envisioned to stretch 105 miles is expected to reach just a mile and a half, a 98% reduction in its planned length.
Saudi Arabia is working on The Line: the most ambitious megaproject the world has ever seen! But a big rumor has started to spread: The Line is getting significantly smaller than originally planned.
Could this be the end of the Line? And will the Line be abandoned altogether?
