Transforming Public
Transport in Saudi Arabia
What we do
MBC operates one of the most modern, sophisticated, technology-driven public bus transport systems in the world, providing a network of routes across Makkah City, one the busiest and most popular tourist destinations in the Middle East, and where millions of Muslims come every year to perform Hajj and Umrah. Our network of 12 routes and 450 bus stops, provides Makkah City’s citizens, residents, commuters and tourists with comfortable, affordable and convenient bus travel, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Learn moreOur impact
Public transport has a significant role to play in reducing climate change globally. It is estimated that high occupancy buses produce approximately 80% less carbon monoxide per passenger mile as single occupant cars. They also produce much less hydrocarbons, nitrogen oxide, and other pollutants. We are committed to providing a public bus system that is used by people from all walks of life, that encourages drivers to refrain from using their cars, and ultimately helps to reduce traffic congestion and all forms of pollution in Makkah City.
