AECOM, a global infrastructure leader, partners with the Saudi Ministry of Sport for site supervision consultancy at King Fahd Sport City in Riyadh. The project aims to transform the stadium for the AFC Asian Cup 2027 and 2034 FIFA World Cup, aligning with Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 goals for economic growth and community development.
AECOM leverages its global sports and construction experience to support the stadium upgrade in Riyadh. With expertise from major events like the Qatar World Cup and London Olympics, AECOM Hunt will play a key role in enhancing King Fahd Sports City to meet FIFA standards and promote Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 objectives.
AECOM shows strong backlog growth, reflecting positive prospects in infrastructure projects.
