The project encompasses over 4.4 million square meters of greenery and open spaces. It features more than 50 multidisciplinary sports facilities, 220km of cycling tracks, 149km of horse trails and 135km of walking paths.  

The development includes diverse districts such as Wadi Hanifah, the Promenade, Sand Sports Park and the Eco District, each offering unique experiences that integrate nature, mobility and well-being.   

Supporting strategic outcomes through trusted delivery 

Since our initial appointment in December 2021, we have provided comprehensive cost and commercial management capabilities on the project. Our role focuses on ensuring clarity, control and confidence across the project lifecycle - helping to manage complexity and support informed, future-focused decisions. 

Reappointed in 2024, our continued involvement reflects the strength of our partnership with the Sports Boulevard Foundation and our ability to adapt to the evolving needs of a fast-paced, high-profile programme. We bring regional insight and global best practices to help Sports Boulevard Foundation align delivery with strategic urban, social and environmental goals. 

Enabling sustainable and digital-first development 

Sustainability is embedded into every layer of the Sports Boulevard’s design, from green mobility and biodiversity corridors, to the promotion of active transport and low-impact infrastructure.  

The project has earned the world’s first ActiveScore Platinum Communities Certification, highlighting its commitment to sustainable urban development.   

The project also incorporates data-led planning and smart infrastructure solutions to support long-term operational efficiency and resilience. By contributing to a more walkable, breathable and active Riyadh, Sports Boulevard is not only reshaping the city but setting a new standard for human-centred development in the region.
