WSP in big clean mobility drive at Red Sea tourism development

The latest step of The Red Sea Project’s sustainable mobility journey follows the creation of a blueprint for decarbonized future mobility to help enable sustainable, seamless journeys for guests, employees and logistics to the flagship tourism destination, it stated.

As a global leader in mobility, sustainability, digital-integration, and commercial advisory, WSP Middle East pointed out that its industry-leading advisory and mobility experts were engaged in helping The Red Sea Development Company (TRSDC) identify land, sea and air transport requirements for the development and its operations, underpinned by the latest advances in green mobility.

Andreas Flourou, Executive Director, Operations (Mobility) at TRSDC, said: "The Red Sea is the world’s most ambitious regenerative tourism project. The destination is on track to be powered solely by 100% renewable solar energy, saving upwards of 500,000 tonnes of CO2 entering the atmosphere every year."

"As such, we’ve set out to be equally ambitious in our mobility operations and are seeking the very best industry partners to help us in realising this vision. Our portfolio of projects on the Red Sea coast is expanding, least of all with the equally ground-breaking Amaala, and as such, the partnership opportunity could be extensive for first movers," noted Flourou.
