The CEO of the Royal Commission for Riyadh City, Fahd Al-Rasheed, had announced a few components of the theme in December last year. The Kingdom is firstly looking to build one of the world’s biggest public transport networks within the cities. It is also hoping to establish a green space in the capital, anticipated to be four times the size of New York City’s Central Park. The Kingdom is also currently planting millions of trees around the Kingdom, and hopes to reach a whopping 15 million.
