ArRiyadh New Mobility

What ArRiyadh New Mobility does

ArRiyadh New Mobility (ANM) is a private, project-specific consortium headquartered in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, formed to deliver the detailed design, construction, and commissioning of Line 3 (the Orange Line) of the Riyadh Metro for the ArRiyadh Development Authority (ADA). The consortium is led by Italy's Salini Impregilo and includes Larsen & Toubro (India), Nesma (Saudi Arabia), Ansaldo STS (Italy), Bombardier (Canada), Idom (Spain), and WorleyParsons (Australia). ANM's deliverable is a 41.8 km driverless metro corridor comprising 10 elevated stations, 8 underground stations, 4 shallow underground stations, 6 park-and-ride facilities, 2 iconic stations (including the Snøhetta-designed Qasr Al-Hokom interchange), and 2 depots, supported by 7 tunnel boring machines excavating 34 km of tunnels.

The project's core technology stack centers on Bombardier Innovia 300 two-car driverless trainsets (47 units) with Mitrac traction equipment for rapid acceleration and regenerative braking, paired with Ansaldo STS signaling and control systems. Construction involves a mix of elevated viaducts (25.8 km), underground tunneling (11 km), and at-grade sections (4.8 km), supported by 3,000 precast segments for elevated works. The consortium has accumulated over 15 million safe man-hours without lost-time injuries and received consecutive RMTC HSSE Best Performance awards through 2017–2019.

ANM's revenue model is a single fixed-price government contract valued at $5.94 billion over a 60-month duration, with revenue recognized on a milestone or percentage-of-completion basis from the ADA. The go-to-market is enterprise field sales to a single sovereign client, with no diversified customer base. Once construction concludes, long-term revenue would depend on operations and maintenance concessions (not yet evidenced) or follow-on Gulf rail contracts. The end-customer base is the population of Riyadh (5.7 million in 2014, projected 8.3 million by 2030), served through fare-based transit usage once the line enters commercial operation.

Revenue model

1. Public Transit Fare Revenue: Riyadh Metro will generate fare revenue from passenger transportation on Line 3 (Orange Line). The metro is a driverless automated system designed to carry 53,000 passengers per day per station capacity. Revenue is collected through automated ticketing systems integrated with the metro network.
2. Parallel Bus Network Revenue: ANM's parent project includes a parallel bus network covering the entire city of Riyadh, providing complementary public transport services that integrate with the metro system.

Core offering

ArRiyadh New Mobility (ANM) is a consortium that designs, constructs, and commissions Line 3 (Orange Line) of the Riyadh Metro Project in Saudi Arabia. The scope covers 41.8 km of metro infrastructure including elevated, underground, and at-grade segments, 22 stations, viaducts, tunnel boring, and integration with driverless trainsets and signaling systems. The $5.94 billion contract was awarded by the ArRiyadh Development Authority (ADA).

Product overview

ArRiyadh New Mobility (ANM) is a construction consortium delivering Line 3 (Orange Line) of the Riyadh Metro — a 41.8-kilometer rail corridor forming part of the 176-kilometer six-line Riyadh Metro network. The project encompasses civil works, stations (elevated, underground, and at-grade), viaducts, and tunnel boring. ANM's portfolio includes the flagship Qasr Al-Hokom Downtown Station (an iconic interchange designed by Snøhetta), the Western Station multimodal hub, and Bombardier Innovia 300 driverless trainsets. The consortium is led by Salini Impregilo with partners Larsen & Toubro, Nesma, Ansaldo STS, Bombardier, Idom, and WorleyParsons. This is an infrastructure/construction project rather than a software product.

Direct peers

• Bechtel Corporation: Global megaproject infrastructure contractor with comparable scope delivering urban transit, rail, and tunneling; directly comparable because it bids for the same multi-billion-dollar EPC packages on which ANM competes across the Middle East and the U.S.
• Webuild (formerly Salini Impregilo): Lead partner of the ANM consortium and one of the world's largest rail/metro EPC contractors; directly comparable because it executes the same scope (civil works, tunneling, design-build-commissioning) on Riyadh Line 3 and competing driverless metro projects in Doha and Grand Paris.
• Larsen & Toubro: Core ANM consortium member and India's largest EPC firm; comparable because it carries a parallel work package on Line 3 (elevated and civil works) and regularly bids as JV partner on GCC rail/metro megaprojects.
• Alstom (parent of Bombardier Transportation): Owns the manufacturer of the 47 Innovia 300 driverless trainsets deployed on Line 3; directly comparable because it is the rolling-stock and integrated rail-systems provider for this project and competes for similar driverless-metro contracts in Doha, Singapore, and beyond.
• Hitachi Rail (parent of Ansaldo STS): Owns ANM consortium partner Ansaldo STS and supplies the driverless signaling and control systems on Line 3; directly comparable because it is the technology stack that enables the driverless operation and competes on similar signaling-led metro bids globally.
• VINCI Construction: Major French EPC group with deep urban transit and tunneling experience (e.g., Grand Paris Express); directly comparable because it competes for the same large GCC metro EPC packages and runs similar design-build-commission consortia.
• CAF (Construcciones y Auxiliar de Ferrocarriles): Spanish train and integrated systems provider active in the Middle East; directly comparable because it delivers driverless and conventional metro systems (including automated metros in Europe and Latin America) and competes for Saudi and GCC rolling-stock bids.
• Siemens Mobility: Global rail-systems incumbent offering signaling, electrification, and rolling stock comparable to the Ansaldo/Bombardier stack on Line 3; competes for the same transit-systems integration scope on other GCC and large-city metro megaprojects.

Broad incumbents

• Skanska: Large Nordic contractor participating in transit/metro civil works and tunneling on comparable urban projects; broadly comparable because it competes for civil-works scopes within the same kind of multi-billion-dollar transit megaprojects.
