| description | This paper proposes the development of a metro system for Jeddah City in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, with the objective of reducing traffic congestion and enhancing transportation accessibility within the urban landscape. Our goals focus not only the planning of a metro system tailored to Jeddah's unique requirements but also the identification of optimal metro station's locations. To achieve this, a methodology that includes a comprehensive database containing key information such as major roads, points of interest (POIs), and population density across Jeddah City was employed. Through data analysis, including hotspot identification and metro network analysis using Geographic information system (GIS), the study Resulted in the formulation of a metro system plan for Jeddah City. Additionally, the research identified the most suitable locations for metro stations, thus laying the groundwork for an efficient and well-integrated metro network designed to meet the city's evolving transportation needs. |
