The contract, which has been awarded to Salini Saudi Arabia Co. Ltd. and totals SAR 3.99bn is for the construction of Diriyah Square’s ‘super basement’ carpark.
The state-of-the-art three level underground car park supports the commercial heart of the culture and heritage giga project’s exciting Diriyah Square. The mixed-use district will offer a combination of leisure and entertainment, ultra-luxurious hotels, retail, grade A offices, the King Salman Grand Mosque and residential units designed in the traditional Najdi architectural style, set for completion in 2024.
Approaching 1 million square metres in floor area, the car park hosts an intricate network of underground roads and tunnels situated below Diriyah Square with multiple access points, with the capacity to accommodate 10,500 cars.
A key feature of the parking facility allows for a continuous flow of traffic and integration with the existing road network in Riyadh. The clever road system will directly connect commuters with all of Diriyah’s destinations, including Wadi Hanifah, the Western Ring Road, and a National Motorway, and will be a key component of the City of Riyadh Arterial Road System.
