Saudi Arabia Is Building a whole City during a line , for a few Reason




Saudi Arabia's idea sounds cool, but even a “hollow” circular city of this type makes more logistical sense.

Cities grow supported what people need, like housing on the brink of work or schools.

Saudi Arabia has shared a wild idea to create a city without roads, where 1 million people will sleep in one long line along a core train track.

Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, the prince of Saudi Arabia , said in his Apple-like announcement that nobody will live quite a “5-minute walk” from the services and shops they have , and therefore the train line that anchors the road city will take just 20 minute to travel its entire over 105-mile length.

THE LINE, as bin Salman is looking the ambitious project, will "preserve 95 [percent] of nature ... with zero cars, zero streets, and 0 carbon emissions," he said during a handout . The city are going to be powered by one hundred pc clean energy and AI , while "an estimated 90 [percent] of obtainable data are going to be harnessed to reinforce infrastructure capabilities far beyond the 1 [percent] typically utilized in existing smart cities

Technological traits aside, can bin Salman's core concept—a 105-mile city inbuilt a straight line—actually work? Let’s check out some math, game design, and even literature to think about the feasibility.

If the town of Chicago, for instance , were rearranged into one single line during this same way, at about the density of 1 million residents per 100 miles, the line would stretch almost to St. Louis—a distance of just under 300 miles. If the whole Chicagoland area were on such a line, it might reach to Jacksonville, Florida. This is a completely new paradigm for building settlements for people.

Or ... is it? Does a line add up for a city, and we’ve just never thought it through?
