Scope of Work: Thuwal Fishermen Marina, Canal Design, Quay Walls, Marina Basin, Floating Pontoons.

Project Description:

Thuwal Town, the historical fishing Village, is situated at the Western Region approximately 80 kilometers north of Jeddah. It is bounded on the north by the King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) which is currently under construction and on the east side by the Jeddah – Madinah Highway. It is a centuries old fishing village which has depended on the Red Sea to be the lifeblood of its fishing industry. The town’s location offers convenient and reliable access to the Red Sea. The need for this access is what complicates locating the Thuwal harbor. Once KAUST is completed, there will be inevitable gap between the former and Thuwal hence the need to improve the physical, social and economic infrastructure of Thuwal in order to narrow such gap. The required enhancement was laid out by HOK and presented in the Sustainable Master Plan of Thuwal Town. The appropriate approaches to stabilize and enhance the Village of Thuwal as a healthy and productive neighbor were all given consideration in the aforementioned document.
