    Since I first heard of this, my main question has been, "why a line, and not another shape?" Other shapes could fulfill the density design, but greatly decrease the round-trip factor. A circle, triangle, grid, or even a Celtic Knot could achieve the same basic goals of density and relative ease of access to amenities while greatly decreasing the footprint and time it takes for a subway train to return to its origin location after reaching its last stop.

    When I heard this first, I remembered the book, Brave New World by Aldous Huxley, in a way that this approach actually creates a new community in the world, and separates some of us from others. If you ask why, just think about who is gonna live here? you? me? or the people who make more money than others. It is a perfect project in a way, but also very bad for the rest. It is exactly like the name of the book; Brave. New. World. So today's cities will transform into the outer place of the "line."

    -Where do lower income and service people live on such a project ?
    - will such a project be possible and sustainable without the enormous initial investment needed for it ?
    -will there be a social class and status division like any normal city ?
    -will people eventually abandon this city to live in a normal city ?
    -Will there be normal cites built along sides of it to serve this giant system ?
    And many other practical and social questions that comes to my mind as an expat architect who lived and practiced in Dubai for the past 43 years and still curious . Maybe I ask AI ?

      Sure, I live in one of those 'western cities' and it is a thousand years old not different from many other places in my country.
      If that line in the sand should really be built and if it then gladly happens to survive its first decade without a humanitarian catastrophe and without major riots among its inhabitants, then I will definitely have to ask myself whether it still makes any sense to be at home in a place and a community that has shaped the lives of countless generations of it's inhabitants, that has seen so many human beings fulfil their fate within its humble surroundings. And every single one of them has contributed a bit to growth and continuous rejuvination of my town and has nourished the spirit of this beautiful place that I call home.
      Well, if the line should turn out a success while I'm still around, I guess I will be very, very happy to see that. And I will be admiring the ingenuity and the perseverance and the vision of the architects, the builders and the inhabitants of that place.
      And at the same time I will still feel at home and validated in my own home town. A place can lose its spirit and it can die, that's true. But that does not happen because another place is rising. People do have meaningful and fulfilled lives in multiple places regardless of the success of any of the other locations. That's a simple truth and if you believe otherwise then maybe you might want to think again.

      The West ended slavery. Notably, it ended the Muslim slave trade which was the worse of the slave trade as they ripped off the genitals of their slaves with only 40% surviving the operation. Let me repeat that... the West had to smash Muslim slave traders, especially the ones linked to the different royal families, into the ground. And the industrial revolution is what allows the Line to even be a concept.@@anayatullahatif7418

    The most important and fundamental design decisions is to have a 3 dimensional city! As most cities are 2 dimensional with elevated 3D structures in the form of buildings. The idea is to design a cube that can provide quick access to maximum distance x density! The idea is great and worth the experiment. But the architects forgot the importance of space dimensions. A city that is isolated from environment can have negative impact on human physiology.

    Instead of excavating the entire length of the project at once, it would be prudent for the kingdom to begin by constructing smaller single-digit sections of 800x200x500. By doing so, we can assess the success and feasibility of these sections before proceeding with the full-fledged construction of 'The Line.' This step-by-step approach will allow us to mitigate risks and make informed decisions based on the performance of each section.

I think it could actually work and where there are no cars and people begin to walk more, people can be come healthy or regain or improve their health. My take is that this is a major experiment to look at how to conserve land based on population growth. Organize living in more controlled space. I see this systematically growing to other countries as land will be reclaimed and these cities built. A better town planning system to use land sparingly as population grows. There is still time and expansion for population expansion, but this is a timely moment to begin planning.

    This is a very ambitious project, with the potential to change the way we live. There are some questions that pop up in my mind though.
    Since everything will be in walking distance, I'm really curious about how people with a physical disability would get around. Probably a simple answer though, but I haven't heard of any measurements taken for this group.
    I'm also curious about the climate and nature. For example, it doesn't seem like an artificial park within the line, within this 'boxed off environment' would have the same effect on people as a natural park in open air would have. Would an artificial park within the line stimulate people as much to go 'outside' and be active? I'm also curious about weather. For example, if it would rain, how would the people at the bottom of the line notice? I agree it's not nice to walk in the rain, but complete absence of different types of weather, i wonder how that effects people. And will there be a passive way to ventilate the line on scorching hot days?
    Also, safety and emergency services. Since there won't be room for cars, only public transport (as far as i'm aware). How will emergency services get to specific locations quickly and efficiently? I'm also curious about fire safety. In case of a fire, will there be enough precautions as to prevent quick and wildly spread fires? Since everything seems connected this looks like a serious recipe for disaster.
    And whose lives will be sustainable here? This seems like a city only livable for those who are rich and wealthy. How does the average household, or even the less fortunate households fit into this living environment? Which jobs will still be available and which would fall away? It seems to me that a lot of construction jobs, other than maintenance work would fall away. Architects, urban planners, you name it. And what jobs would be created for this specific living environment?

      This about renewable energy will be true when it is in operation, but building it can be an environmental crime:
      And it is that to make this construction they will emit a quantity of emissions never seen in any other construction and the same with the waste, you will never be able to compensate for the destruction you will have done to the planet. The director of the Sydney School of the Environment estimated that its construction would cause 1.8 billion tonnes of CO2, equivalent to the annual emissions of approximately 782 million cars.

    My question is if they can fit a football stadium or a concert arena in there? And how will they manage the noise pollution? I believe they can do it, just a matter of design and engineering.

      I am guessing eventually, something will need to be built outside of the Line to accommodate large group activities, such as stadiums or airports.

      and energy sources as the line will not be able to suffice to itself and then other suff and then you basically have the same concentric growth of cities we witnessed in the medieval times as they outgrew the walls :D @@MyMovie5858

      Yeah i'm wondering about the noise pollution too, it would be hard to live in a place that sounded like a giant crowded mall 24/7

      if you do the research, a football stadium will already fit in Neom, the Neom line isn't that thin... The stadium design would include sound-absorbing materials, allowing entertainment while protecting neighborhoods from disturbance.

      Yes it is wide enough to accomodate either.
