Transportation Services in Makkah
Transport in Makkah moves between two very different demand states: steady staff and hotel-shuttle transport most of the year, and a many-fold increase in passenger movement during Hajj that requires fleet and driver numbers unlike anything a resident-population city would need.
Fleet scaling for the Hajj passenger surge
Passenger transport serving hotels and pilgrim facilities is scoped with a defined Hajj-season surge in vehicles and drivers, planned well ahead of the fixed date window.
Coordination with Royal Commission traffic restrictions
Vehicle access and routing near the Central Area is coordinated with the restrictions the Royal Commission for Makkah City and Holy Sites imposes, particularly during the Hajj period.
