Prince Saud bin Abdullah bin Jalawi, Governor of Jeddah, has launched the luxury water taxi service of Jeddah Transport Company, in a step aimed at strengthening the marine transport system on the waterfront and raising the quality of the mobility experience in the governorate.
The launch was attended by the President of the Transport General Authority, Eng. Fawaz bin Zanaaf Al-Sahli, the Mayor of Jeddah Governorate, Saleh bin Ali Al-Turki, and the CEO of Jeddah Transport Company, Eng. Youssef bin Nasser Al-Sayegh, according to a post on the Saudi Press Agency.
The Governor of Jeddah toured aboard the luxury water taxi to Jeddah Yacht Club, then took a tour aboard the public water taxi, and listened to a briefing on the company's efforts to develop an integrated transport system and provide a distinctive marine experience linking the most prominent coastal destinations through solutions that combine efficiency, comfort and service quality.
In its first phase, the project serves Jeddah Yacht Club, with plans for future expansion to cover other locations along the waterfront. The luxury water taxi is a new addition to the project, featuring a modern design and advanced technical specifications, ensuring a high-quality marine experience in terms of comfort, stability and performance, and offering an option for both mobility and leisure at the same time.
The project also helps provide alternative mobility solutions on the waterfront, supporting the targets of the Kingdom's Vision 2030 to improve quality of life and develop the transport and tourism sectors.
