The awarded plots are located in the neighborhoods of Jurhum South, Al-Khalidiyah, Al-Hajlah, Al-Hindawiyah East, Al-Hindawiyah South, and Al-Hindawiyah West.

According to relevant reports, these projects will be implemented through collaboration among real estate development and investment companies and investment funds, reflecting the integration of regulatory and development efforts aimed at delivering urban projects with sustainable economic and developmental impacts.

The Commission explained that these projects aim to redevelop priority areas by improving land use efficiency, upgrading infrastructure and public services, addressing urban challenges, and enhancing Makkah's investment and development appeal.

According to a report by Zawya Projects, a consortium led by Umm Al Qura for Development and Construction has received two letters of acceptance from the Royal Commission for Makkah City and Holy Sites for the development of two plots near the Masar Destination in Makkah, namely Al-Hindawiyah West and Al-Hindawiyah South.

In a statement to the Saudi Stock Exchange, the developer said the project is expected to cost approximately $1.6 billion, with a total area of 1.15 million square meters.
