The Roads General Authority (RGA) of Saudi Arabia is the official strategic partner. The kingdom has more than 71,500km of roads, with 5,000km of operational highways, with plans to convert 49,000km of single-lane roads into double-lane.

A 5,330km railway network is planned, including the Haramain High-Speed Railway connecting Mecca and Medina.

These projects align with the National Transport and Logistics Strategy, which seeks to increase the sector's contribution to nearly $12 billion in annual non-oil revenues by 2030.

RGA CEO Eng. Badr Abdullah Al-Dulami says: "As we continue to expand our road network and improve traffic safety across the kingdom, this event provides an invaluable platform for exhibitors in fostering new business opportunities, increase brand exposure and exploring innovative solutions that will drive the future of road and transportation in Saudi Arabia and beyond."

"We are also excited to discuss advancements in The Saudi Highway code that aims to provide a unified technical reference for the roads authorities in the kingdom of Saudi Arabia at all levels.”

Companies such as National Transport Safety Center, Red Sea Global, Neom, Saudi Aramco and Tahakom have helped shape the Expo agenda.

More than 7,000 visitors 30 countries are expected, with exhibitors including Makani Parking, Chainzone (Foshan) Technology Co, Idex Services, Riyadh Kingdom Road Safety, Al Haramain Industrial Group Company, Reda National Group, Swarco, Shibh Al Jazira Technology and Contracting, Almaviva and Naviparking.
