Saudi Arabia's Public Transport Authority (TGA) has signed a memorandum of understanding with the Red Sea Development Company (TRSDC) to develop the region's legislative and regulatory environment for land, sea, and rail transport.

TGC Chairman Rumaih al-Rumaih said Monday that they were looking forward to developing the transport sectors in the Red Sea region through cooperation and joint work.

He said that the two sides would create the legislative and regulatory environment to provide services according to the best international standards and models through the use and employment of modern technology to raise the level of quality and upgrade transportation options in the Red Sea.

Rumaih said that the agreement supported the objectives of the national strategy for transport and logistics services in developing services, improving the experience of beneficiaries, and contributing to raising the quality of life in Saudi cities and regions.

The agreement develops opportunities for innovation, technical cooperation, promotes investment, and keeps pace with the latest global developments in the transport industry in line with the Kingdom's economic and social goals.

CEO of TRSDC John Pagano said that the goal was to connect the Red Sea destination in the best possible way using a fleet of smart vehicles to support sustainability goals
