The project aims to create a transportation system that adapts to the privacy of the Grand Mosque and assists in offering a comprehensive experience of arrival, Tawaf and Sa'i to serve 100,000 beneficiaries daily during Hajj and Umrah seasons through the operational efficiency of the proposed means of transportation. This system aims to facilitate Tawaf and Sa'i by reducing the time required to perform the rituals and improving the level of genera l satisfaction from 78% currently to more than 90%, in addition to raising the efficiency of the worshippers' journey, starting from booking, through using the means of transportation, until the completion of Umrah, Tawaf or Sa'i, and reducing the duration of procedures and the waiting period to obtain the service. The project is expected to cover the areas of the Grand Mosque and the Prophet's Mosque, with the possibility of expanding to taxi drop-off points in the central area and shuttle transportation stations.
