Increasing affordability and ease of travel
The Increasing travel facilitation and easy transportability are the factors promoting the growth of Saudi Arabian water bus markets. Their goal is to diversify their economy and sustain urban development within their Vision 2030 project; transportation is more beneficial because it is budget-friendly and more manageable. The efficiency of water buses as an alternate mode of transportation would work well in cities such as Jeddah and Dammam, as they lie directly on the coastline, besides being centers of commercial and touristic activities. The government has invested in the urban mobility infrastructure under Vision 2030, which is focused on the affordability and accessibility of transport. For example, coastal city projects include the Jeddah waterfront development, where water buses will be introduced for easier access and decongesting roads. Another proposal that the King Abdullah Economic City (KAEC) is considering is water-based transit systems as part of sustainable urban planning. Private sector players have also shown interest in partnering with the government to develop and operate water bus services that are affordable and efficient.

The country also utilizes its long Red Sea coastline to enhance tourism and trade, and water buses are an essential link between key destinations. The Red Sea Project will have water transport systems, such as less expensive water buses, planned for seamless connectivity between tourists to luxury resorts and islands. The developments highlight Saudi Arabia's commitment to improving affordability and convenience in transportation while promoting economic growth and tourism, making water buses an essential part of the emerging mobility landscape.
