based Jacobs Engineering Group has been selected by Injaz Development Company to provide infrastructure and construction supervision services for its Al Marina project in Saudi Arabia. Mike Coyle VP of Jacobs Group said "Jacobs is proud to be associated with this state of the art development in Saudi Arabia and we look forward to establishing a long term partnership with Injaz." The Al Marina project is 36 million square feet development that includes luxury villas, multi use towers, buildings, coastal houses, hotels, schools, mosques and a variety of public and tourist facilities. Upon completion, Al Marina will be a new destination between Dammam and Al-Khobar that will rival both in its public facilities which will include 300,000 square meter lagoon with elaborate fountains, waterfront shopping mall, open air recreational areas and high-rise commercial strips. Injaz has previously said that the project will consist of about 636 single family villas and 15 storey luxury apartment blocks spread over 250 plots. The total land area for the project is split between residential and commercial, public spaces and government services.
