AS+P plays a considerable role in the comprehensive urban  restructuring and modernisation of the Saudi Arabi- an capital Riyadh, providing numerous concepts. The planned public transport system is intended to take the metrop- olis’s traffic and urban development to a new infrastructural level. In order to present an alternative to car transport, currently the dominant mode of trans- port, it is not only necessary to provide an efficient system of buses and trains, but also a qualitatively upgraded urban space, which is welcoming and provides a high quality of life.

For the existing sensitive urban fabric of Riyadh’s histor- ic center, AS+P presented a strategy, the Action Area Plan for Transit-Orien- ted Development (T.O.D.): Its aim was not only the optimisation and integration of transport routes and modes of transport in a way compatible with the urban environment, but also to take into account the cultural and histori- cal importance of the old city centre.

Based on the vision of a Capital Oasis, over the next 25 years Riyadh’s centre will ripen into an open, varied place, comprising architectural treasures, representative squares and buildings plus a network of differentiated roads and transport connections, which will form the physical framework of a modern, vibrant urban fabric.
