Saudi Arabia’s King Salman Energy Park (Spark) has awarded a major contract for the construction of a road, the company said in a tweet.

 

“The contract covers the construction of a road connecting the energy city and its dry port with the Dhahran-Abqaiq highway,” the tweet said.

 

The 23 kilometer road includes two lanes in each direction, and will also intersect with the project’s rail bridge.

 

“The road will support Spark tenants’ logistics and improve their competitiveness,” the tweet added.

 

Located between Dammam and Al-Ahsa in Saudi Arabia’s Eastern Province, Spark is a 50 square kilometer hub for energy, industrialization, and technology that will see Phase 1 construction completed in 2021.

 

When completed, the project will include 15,000 residential units of apartments, villas and complexes, in addition to 400 hotel rooms, educational, health and accommodation facilities.
