Al Madinah Region Development Authority (MDA) has awarded a contract to Egis-Led Joint Venture to provide Project Management and Construction Management (PMCM) services for the Madinah Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) project.
The Madinah BRT project is a key part of the city’s large-scale transportation plan under Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 Pilgrim Experience Program. It aims to establish up to 500 stations and achieve 80-90% area coverage by 2030. The project's main goals are to enhance public transport, provide efficient travel for residents, visitors, and pilgrims, reduce traffic congestion, and offer a safe, sustainable transportation option throughout the city.
The Egis-led JV with Systra will play a pivotal role in delivering PMCM services for the implementation of the Madinah Bus Network, including BRT, priority bus, and feeder services. The JV’s services will also include engineering supervision and oversight of design, construction, testing and operation. Additionally, they will handle safety and security management for systems, including buses, depots, intelligent transportation systems (ITS), and operational systems, as well as for civil works, such as bus lanes, stations and stops, footbridges, and park-and-ride facilities.
